Declining anthropogenic aerosols amplify Northern Hemisphere Hadley circulation weakening in the 21st century [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe Hadley circulation plays a key role in transporting atmospheric heat from the tropics to the subtropics, shaping the climate in low latitudes. While its projected weakening has been largely attributed to rising greenhouse gas concentrations, the long-

Impact of ENSO events on the interannual variability of Hadley circulation extents in boreal winter
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2016 The interannual variability of the boreal winter Hadley circulation extents during the period of 1979–2014 and its links to El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) were investigated by using reanalysis datasets.

Southern Hemisphere subtropical front impacts on Southern African hydroclimate across the Mid-Pleistocene Transition [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSouthern African (SA) hydroclimate is largely shaped by the interactions of atmospheric circulations, e.g., Hadley Circulation, and oceanic elements, like the Benguela Upwelling System (BUS), Agulhas System, and Antarctic Circumpolar frontal system ...

Metrics of the Hadley circulation strength and associated circulation trends [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2022 This study compares trends in the Hadley cell (HC) strength using different metrics applied to the ECMWF ERA5 and ERA-Interim reanalyses for the period 1979–2018.

Changes in the strength and width of the Hadley Circulation since 1871 [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2012 Recent studies demonstrate that the Hadley Circulation has intensified and expanded for the past three decades, which has important implications for subtropical societies and may lead to profound changes in global climate. However, the robustness of this

Synchronized spatial shifts of Hadley and Walker circulations [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2021 The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influences the most extensive tropospheric circulation cells on our planet, known as Hadley and Walker circulations.

Drastic shrinking of the Hadley circulation during the mid-Cretaceous Supergreenhouse [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2012 Understanding the behavior of the global climate system during extremely warm periods is one of the major themes of paleoclimatology. Proxy data demonstrate that the equator-to-pole temperature gradient was much lower during the mid-Cretaceous ...

Hadley cell expansion in CMIP6 models [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020 In response to increasing greenhouse gases, the subtropical edges of Earth's Hadley circulation shift poleward in global climate models. Recent studies have found that reanalysis trends in the Hadley cell edge over the past 30–40 years are within the ...

Exploring the sensitivity of Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation to different surface temperature forcing using a statistical–dynamical atmospheric model [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2019 Climate and weather conditions in the mid-latitudes are strongly driven by the large-scale atmosphere circulation. Observational data indicate that important components of the large-scale circulation have changed in recent decades, including the strength
