Ocean Meanders Modulate Extratropical Cyclone Energetics
Abstract Extratropical cyclones primarily develop over the western parts of ocean basins, where strong sea surface temperature (SST) contrasts form along western boundary currents. While previous studies have highlighted the influence of the mean SST and SST gradient on cyclones developing over these currents, they have generally disregarded their ...

Mesoscale eddies heterogeneously modulate CO2 fluxes in eddy-rich regions of the Southern Ocean [PDF]
Mesoscale eddies are known to influence the Southern Ocean biogeochemistry. However, the distinct contributions of cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies to air–sea CO2 fluxes, as well as their longer-term effects remain poorly studied. We present results from

Abstract Satellite observations since 2001 show an increasing Earth's energy imbalance (EEI) at the top of the atmosphere of 0.45 W m−2 dec−1, a trend understated in coupled climate models. We assess the 2001–2024 EEI trend in historical simulations of two high‐resolution coupled models, CM4X, a revised version of CM4.0, and CESM‐HR, a high‐resolution ...

Statistical Analysis of Multi-Year South China Sea Eddies and Exploration of Eddy Classification
Mesoscale eddies are structures of seawater motion with horizontal scales of tens to hundreds of kilometers, impact depths of tens to hundreds of meters, and time scales of days to months. This study presents a statistical analysis of mesoscale eddies in

Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC) intensity and associated rainfall depend on sea surface temperature (SST). SSTs in southern Japan, which are often hit by TCs, are likely influenced by the path of the Kuroshio. During the Kuroshio large meander (KLM), Kuroshio creates a coexistence of local warm and cold SST anomalies near the Japanese coast.

Mesoscale dynamics of an intrathermocline eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor
Abstract. High-resolution observations of an intrathermocline eddy were conducted in November 2022 within the Canary Eddy Corridor. Formed in early summer 2022, this mature mesoscale eddy exhibited a vertical extent of 550 m, with its core centered at 110 m depth, and a segmented horizontal structure comprising a 23 km radius solid-body core surrounded

An Optimized Parameterization of Sub‐Grid Scale Advection for Convection Permitting Models
Abstract Convection‐permitting models (CPMs) explicitly resolve deep convection yet under‐resolve the organized lateral exchanges among drafts and their environment that control entrainment/detrainment, precipitation efficiency, and mesoscale structure.

Abstract This study investigates the sensitivity of numerical simulations of atmospheric processes over complex terrain to land surface model (LSM) parameters, focusing on thermally driven circulations in an idealized valley. The sensitivity analysis is performed using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with the Noah‐MP LSM, for forest ...

Lightning Outbreaks at the Mature Stage of Tropical Cyclone: Case Study for Hurricane Dorian (2019)
Abstract The relationship between tropical cyclone (TC) lightning activity and intensity change has been examined for nearly 30 years, yet a clear consensus remains elusive, reflecting the complexity of the processes governing TC lightning. This study investigates the physical mechanisms that triggered inner‐core lightning outbreaks during the mature ...
