The basic ingredients of the North Atlantic storm track. Part I: land-sea contrast and orography [PDF]
Understanding and predicting changes in storm tracks over longer time scales is a challenging problem, particularly in the North Atlantic. This is due in part to the complex range of forcings (land–sea contrast, orography, sea surface temperatures, etc.)
