Dry intrusions and warm‐core development in Medicanes: Insights from a multi‐case analysis and the peculiar evolution of Ianos

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Mediterranean tropical‐like cyclones show a clear seasonality, with September cyclones exhibiting the deepest convection and Ianos representing the most extreme case. While one or more dry intrusions are typically detected during the cyclone life cycle, Ianos instead features two much weaker descending airflows.

North American cooling signature of strong stratospheric wave events depends on the QBO phase

Environmental Research: Climate
Extreme stratospheric wave activity has been linked to surface cold extremes over North America, but little is known whether the Quasi-biennial Oscillation (QBO) plays a role in this linkage. Here, by comparing strong stratospheric wave events during the

Stratospheric initial conditions provide seasonal predictability of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oscillations

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), the regional manifestation of the Arctic Oscillation (AO), dominates winter climate variability in Europe and North America.

Asymmetry in the effect of North Atlantic sea surface temperature on the eddy‐driven jet

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Projections of climate over Europe and the Atlantic are uncertain due to the uncertainty surrounding future changes in North Atlantic sea surface temperatures (SSTs). Here, we demonstrate that warming in the North Atlantic Ocean is linked to a transition to a negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation, as well as to an equatorward displacement of

Characteristics of upper‐level updrafts and downdrafts in the anvils of tropical deep convective clouds

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study investigates the thermodynamic and microphysical characteristics of updrafts and downdrafts of tropical deep convective anvil clouds using in situ measurements. We found that parts of the downdrafts are in ice supersaturation in these clouds.

Further development of adaptive parameter tuning in the numerical weather prediction models of Deutscher Wetterdienst

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The introduction of adaptive parameter tuning in the numerical weather prediction models of DWD in 2022 substantially improved the forecast quality of near‐surface variables like 2‐m temperature and 2‐m humidity. Since 2023, refinements and extensions, primarily affecting the surface evaporation and its diurnal cycle, have led to further advances ...

Multiscale numerical sensitivity simulations of a mesoscale gravity‐wave event

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
High‐resolution WRF simulations of the February 14–15, 1992 STORM‐FEST event show that mesoscale gravity‐wave genesis occurs via geostrophic adjustment within an upper‐level unbalanced jet, while wave ducting governs maintenance. High‐resolution (1 km), improved physical parameterization, and targeted sensitivity simulations demonstrate that upstream ...

Observationally derived transport diagnostics for the lowermost stratosphere and their application to the GMI chemistry and transport model [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2007
Transport from the surface to the lowermost stratosphere (LMS) can occur on timescales of a few months or less, making it possible for short-lived tropospheric pollutants to influence stratospheric composition and chemistry.

Stratosphere-Troposphere Coupling and Oceanic Feedbacks in an Aquaplanet Model

, 2021
Since the 90’s, there have been many studies looking at the impact of stratospheric temperature perturbations (STP’s) on the troposphere below, and the mechanisms involved. However, it is not well-understood how these interactions might be modified by atmosphere-ocean coupling. This holds particular relevance to the study of e.g.
