Eclipse Ice Core Accumulation and Stable Isotope Variability as an Indicator of North Pacific Climate [PDF]
The high accumulation rate and negligible amount of melt at Eclipse Icefield (3017 m) in the Saint Elias Range of Yukon, Canada, allows for the preservation of a high-resolution isotopic and glaciochemical records valuable for reconstruction of climatic ...

Measurement of geopotential heights by GPS radio occultation [PDF]
Geopotential heights of constant pressure surfaces are retrieved from global positioning system (GPS) radio occultation data. In order to assess accuracy a subset of data obtained by GPS/MET during spring 1995 and summer 1995 are compared to the output of the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) global model.

The Arctic Oscillation Signature in the Wintertime Geopotential Height and Temperature Fields [PDF]
The leading empirical orthogonal function of the wintertime sea‐level pressure field is more strongly coupled to surface air temperature fluctuations over the Eurasian continent than the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). It resembles the NAO in many respects; but its primary center of action covers more of the Arctic, giving it a more zonally symmetric

Polar mesoscale cyclones in the northeast Atlantic: Comparing climatologies from ERA-40 and satellite imagery [PDF]
Polar mesoscale cyclones over the subarctic are thought to be an important component of the coupled atmosphere–ocean climate system. However, the relatively small scale of these features presents some concern as to their representation in the ...

Nov slovenski višinski sistem SVS2010 ( = New Slovenian height system SVS2010) [PDF]
In December 2018, a new national height system called the ‘Slovenian Height System 2010’ was introduced (denoted as ‘SVS2010’). It is based on a new levelling network of the first order, which has been measured over the previous decade.

Large-scale circulation features associated with the heat wave over Northeast China in summer 2018
In late July and early August 2018, Northeast China suffered from extremely high temperatures, with the maxium temperature anomaly exceeding 6°C. In this study, the large-scale circulation features associated with this heat wave over Northeast China are ...

A Comparison of Two Shallow Water Models with Non-Conforming Adaptive Grids: classical tests [PDF]
In an effort to study the applicability of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) techniques to atmospheric models an interpolation-based spectral element shallow water model on a cubed-sphere grid is compared to a block-structured finite volume method in ...
