Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

The importance of interactive chemistry for stratosphere–troposphere coupling [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019 Recent observational and modeling studies suggest that stratospheric ozone depletion not only influences the surface climate in the Southern Hemisphere (SH), but also impacts Northern Hemisphere (NH) spring, which implies a strong interaction between ...

The role of convective overshooting clouds in tropical stratosphere–troposphere dynamical coupling [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015 This paper investigates the role of deep convection and overshooting convective clouds in stratosphere–troposphere dynamical coupling in the tropics during two large major stratospheric sudden warming events in January 2009 and January 2010.

Gravity waves as a mechanism of troposphere–stratosphere–mesosphere coupling during sudden stratospheric warming [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsThe propagation of gravity waves (GWs) and their role in the coupling of the troposphere–stratosphere–mesosphere atmospheric layers during sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) are studied. A standard set of hydrodynamic (HD) equations is used to derive the

Frontiers in Physics, 2014 Variation in solar irradiance is considered an important factor in natural climate forcing. Variations in the solar UV in particular are now regarded as a major source of decadal variability in the stratosphere, influencing surface climate through ...

Quantifying stratospheric biases and identifying their potential sources in subseasonal forecast systems [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2022 The stratosphere can be a source of predictability for surface weather on timescales of several weeks to months. However, the potential predictive skill gained from stratospheric variability can be limited by biases in the representation of stratospheric

Impact of the stratosphere on tropospheric climate change
Geophysical Research Letters, 2008 The atmospheric circulation response to CO2 doubling in various versions of an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) without a well‐resolved stratosphere (“low‐top” model), is compared to the response in a version of the same AGCM with a well ...

Stratospheric tropical warming event and its impact on the polar and tropical troposphere [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017 Stratosphere–troposphere coupling is investigated in relation to middle atmospheric subtropical jet (MASTJ) variations in boreal winter. An exceptional strengthening of the MASTJ occurred in association with a sudden equatorward shift of the ...

Signature of the stratosphere–troposphere coupling on recent record-breaking Antarctic sea-ice anomalies [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 In February 2023, the sea-ice extent around Antarctica dropped to 1.79×106 km2, setting a satellite-era record low for the second straight year. Recent records stress the need for further research into the factors behind record-breaking Antarctic sea-ice
