Changing available energy for extratropical cyclones and associated convection in Northern Hemisphere summer [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 The circulation of the Northern Hemisphere extratropical troposphere has changed over recent decades, with marked decreases in extratropical cyclone activity and eddy kinetic energy (EKE) in summer and increases in the fraction of precipitation that is ...

Upper atmosphere response to extratropical cyclones
Solar-Terrestrial PhysicsWe have examined the response of the lower and upper ionosphere to the passage of extratropical cyclones in 2014–2023, using measurements made at regional ultra-long-wave radio stations and satellites of the Swarm mission in the Far Eastern region of ...

Strong polar vortex favoured intense Northern European storminess in February 2022 [PDF]
Communications Earth & EnvironmentFebruary 2022 was an unusually stormy month over Northern Europe, including three extratropical cyclones impacting the United Kingdom and Ireland within a single week. The month also experienced an exceptionally strong stratospheric polar vortex; however,

Characteristics of extratropical cyclones and precursors to windstorms in northern Europe [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2021 Extratropical cyclones play a major role in the atmospheric circulation and weather variability and can cause widespread damage and destruction. Extratropical cyclones in northern Europe, which is located at the end of the North Atlantic storm track ...

Use of threshold parameter variation for tropical cyclone tracking [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2023 Assessing the capacity of numerical models to produce viable tropical cyclones, as well as assessing the climatological behavior of simulated tropical cyclones, requires an objective tracking method.

Acceleration of tropical cyclones as a proxy for extratropical interactions: synoptic-scale patterns and long-term trends [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2021 It is well known that rapid changes in tropical-cyclone motion occur during interaction with extratropical waves. While the translation speed has received much attention in the published literature, acceleration has not.

Environmental Characteristics of Extratropical Cyclone Tornadoes in Liaoning
应用气象学报, 2023 Liaoning is one of the active regions for tornadoes in China, and the generation of a considerable number of tornadoes is associated with extratropical cyclones.

Extratropical cyclones over the North Atlantic and western Europe during the Last Glacial Maximum and implications for proxy interpretation [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2020 Extratropical cyclones are a dominant feature of the midlatitudes, as their passage is associated with strong winds, precipitation and temperature changes.
