THE ROLE OF STRATOSPHERE-TROPOSPHERE ANOMALIES IN THE OCCURRENCE OF WIDESPREAD EXTREME LOW TEMPERATURES IN IRAN’S COLD SEASON FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF POTENTIAL VORTICITY [PDF]

open access: yesPrzegląd Geofizyczny
This study investigates the role of stratosphere-troposphere anomalies in the occurrence of widespread extreme low temperatures in Iran’s cold season using the potential vorticity index from 1960 to 2010.

Why does typhoon Noru (2022) possess severe rapid intensification as explored by the extended Sawyer–Eliassen equation?

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
As inferred from the Sawyer–Eliassen analyses, the intense diabatic heating located slightly inside the radius of maximum tangential wind (RMW) associated with a compact eyewall is mainly responsible for the severe RI of Noru, in contrast to typhoon Goni (2020) at a slower spinup despite similar RMW, due to the weaker diabatic heating. The severe RI of

Gyrofluid potential vorticity equation and turbulent equipartion states:Paper [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An equation governing potential vorticity in a magnetized plasmas is derived. The equation is analogous to Ertel's theorem. In the long wave-length limit the potential vorticity equals the ratio of the gyro-frequency plus the E × B- and diamagnetic ...

Stratospheric influence on tropical cyclone evolution

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We developed a metric based on moist static energy to detect and quantify the intrusion of stratospheric air into the inner core of tropical cyclones. High‐resolution numerical simulations show that this stratospheric interaction forms warm anomalies (high‐level warm cores) in the upper troposphere.

On the link between martian total ozone and potential vorticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We demonstrate for the first time that total ozone in the martian atmosphere is highly correlated with the dynamical tracer, potential vorticity, under certain conditions.

A new scale‐selective measure of curvature for meteorological fields

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We introduce a novel diagnostic called curvature using radial variation (CURV) that quantifies the local cyclonic or anticyclonic curvature of mean‐sea‐level pressure or geopotential height gridded fields over selected scales. A depiction of how CURV values relate to differing cyclonic curvature is shown in the figure.

Attribution of subseasonal cold‐spell forecasts to remote drivers using nudging experiments

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Nudging experiments with the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) model show that Northern European cold spells can arise from different drivers. Some events are predominantly influenced by stratospheric dynamics, while others also involve important tropospheric processes.

Coupled diabatic and frictional forcing of single‐layer vortical flow

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A single‐layer balanced model is used to illustrate how diabatic and frictional forcing of a primary balanced vortical flow can be coupled self‐consistently, including the advection of potential vorticity by the induced transverse circulation. The coupling is illustrated in the context of a developing tropical cyclone, in which boundary‐layer dynamics ...

Synoptic and large‐scale drivers of extreme precipitation events in the Himalayas

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Months associated with maximum frequency of extreme precipitation events (EPEs). 6102 extreme precipitation days (i.e., exceeding 99th percentile for daily precipitation) occurred across the Karakoram, Western Himalayas (WH), Central Himalayas (CH) and Eastern Himalayas (EH) during 1979 to 2023.
