Changes to the tropical circulation in the mid-Pliocene and their implications for future climate [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2017
The two components of the tropical overturning circulation, the meridional Hadley circulation (HC) and the zonal Walker circulation (WC), are key to the re-distribution of moisture, heat and mass in the atmosphere. The mid-Pliocene Warm Period (mPWP; ∼ 3.

Arctic sea-ice decline causes intense summer monsoon precipitation events over South Asia under greenhouse warming

Environmental Research Letters
Arctic sea-ice decline has been accelerating under greenhouse warming. In this study, we investigate the tropical precipitation response to declining Arctic sea-ice using observations and climate model simulations.

Understanding the response of tropical overturning circulations to greenhouse gas and aerosol forcing

Environmental Research: Climate
While observational records provide evidence for strengthening of the Pacific Walker circulation and the boreal winter Hadley cell over the last few decades, the underlying causes are not well understood.

The climate-smart village approach: framework of an integrative strategy for scaling up adaptation options in agriculture

Ecology and Society, 2018
Increasing weather risks threaten agricultural production systems and food security across the world. Maintaining agricultural growth while minimizing climate shocks is crucial to building a resilient food production system and meeting developmental ...

Future intensification of Northern Hemisphere monsoons due to declining remote aerosol pollution

Environmental Research Letters
Anthropogenic aerosol emissions have significantly shaped historical monsoon precipitation, yet uncertainties persist in the projected response to future emissions. This study employs models contributing at least ten ensemble members to the Detection and

Strong Green‐Up of Tropical Asia During the 2015/16 El Niño

Geophysical Research Letters
El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the main climate mode that drives the interannual variability in climate and consequently vegetation greenness. While widespread green‐up has been reported and examined in tropical America during El Niño, it remains

No constraint on long-term tropical land carbon-climate feedback uncertainties from interannual variability

Communications Earth & Environment
Unraveling drivers of the interannual variability of tropical land carbon cycle is critical for understanding land carbon-climate feedbacks. Here we utilize two generations of factorial model experiments to show that interannual variability of tropical ...

Long range transport of South and East Asian anthropogenic aerosols counteracting Arctic warming

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
The large-scale convection during the Asian summer monsoon plays an important role in the rapid transport of boundary layer aerosols into the Asian summer monsoon anticyclone. Here, using the state-of-the-art ECHAM6–HAMMOZ aerosol-chemistry-climate model,
