Significantly increased extreme precipitation expected in Europe and North America from extratropical cyclones [PDF]
For the Northern Hemisphere extratropics, changes in the mid-latitude storm tracks are key to understanding the impacts of climate warming, but projections of their future location in current climate models are affected by large uncertainty.

Upper atmosphere response to extratropical cyclones
We 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 ...

Extratropical Cyclones: A Century of Research on Meteorology’s Centerpiece [PDF]
AbstractThe year 1919 was important in meteorology, not only because it was the year that the American Meteorological Society was founded, but also for two other reasons. One of the foundational papers in extratropical cyclone structure by Jakob Bjerknes was published in 1919, leading to what is now known as the Norwegian cyclone model. Also that year,

Ocean Meanders Modulate Extratropical Cyclone Energetics
Extratropical cyclones primarily develop over the western parts of ocean basins, where strong sea surface temperature (SST) contrasts form along western boundary currents.

Global Hotspots of Stalling Extratropical Cyclones
Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) are primary drivers of extreme weather in the mid‐to‐high latitudes. We introduce a new classification of particularly impactful events—“stalling” ETCs—defined by slow movement combined with intense precipitation.

Moisture analysis of an extratropical cyclone [PDF]
The atmospheric water balance and precipitation regime of a moving cyclone are described. The coordinate system chosen is one that moves with the traveling storm system. The computation of the atmospheric water balance is done to yield the parameter precipitation minus evaporation as a residual.

Income and Extratropical Cyclones in New Zealand [PDF]
Aotearoa New Zealand is highly vulnerable to extratropical cyclones because of its unique location in the midlatitude south pacific region. This study empirically investigates the impact of the extratropical cyclones on individual income, combining the ...

Objective determination of the extratropical transition of tropical cyclones in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]
Extratropical transition (ET) has eluded objective identification since the realisation of its existence in the 1970s. Recent advances in numerical, computational models have provided data of higher resolution than previously available.

Can climate models represent the precipitation associated with extratropical cyclones? [PDF]
Extratropical cyclones produce the majority of precipitation in many regions of the extratropics. This study evaluates the ability of a climate model, HiGEM, to reproduce the precipitation associated with extratropical cyclones.

Precipitation, moisture sources and transport pathways associated with summertime North Atlantic deep cyclones [PDF]
Extratropical cyclones are essential for redistributing moisture from lower latitudes to the poles, and are known for their ability to produce extreme precipitation.
