Solar and volcanic forcing of North Atlantic climate inferred from a process-based reconstruction [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2018 The effect of external forcings on atmospheric circulation is debated. Due to the short observational period, the analysis of the role of external forcings is hampered, making it difficult to assess the sensitivity of atmospheric circulation to ...

Anthropogenic influence on the changing risk of heat waves over India
Scientific Reports, 2022 The overarching goal of this paper is to shed light on the human influence on the changing patterns of heat waves in India using the Heat Wave Magnitude Index daily (HWMId).

Climate Response to Pulse Versus Sustained Stratospheric Aerosol Forcing
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 Solar geoengineering has been suggested as a potential means to counteract anthropogenic warming. Major volcanic eruptions have been used as natural analogues to large‐scale deployments of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering, yet difference in climate ...

ModE-Sim – a medium-sized atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) ensemble to study climate variability during the modern era (1420 to 2009) [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2023 We introduce ModE-Sim (Modern Era SIMulations), a medium-sized ensemble of simulations with the atmospheric general circulation model ECHAM6 in its LR (low-resolution) version (T63; approx. 1.8∘ horizontal grid width with 47 vertical levels).

Climate forcing by the volcanic eruption of Mount Pinatubo [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2005 We determine the volcano climate sensitivity λ and response time τ for the Mount Pinatubo eruption, using observational measurements of the temperature anomalies of the lower troposphere, measurements of the long wave outgoing radiation, and the aerosol optical density.

Long-term variability of drought indices in the Czech Lands and effects of external forcings and large-scale climate variability modes [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2019 While a considerable number of records document the temporal variability of droughts for central Europe, the understanding of its underlying causes remains limited.

Skillful prediction of multidecadal variations in volcanic forcing [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 AbstractStratospheric sulfate injections from explosive volcanic eruptions are a primary natural climate forcing. Improved statistical models can now capture and simulate dynamical relationships in temporal variations of binary data. Leveraging these new techniques, the presented analysis clearly indicates that the number of large eruptions in the most

Do GCMs predict the climate ... or macroweather? [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2013 We are used to the weather–climate dichotomy, yet the great majority of the spectral variance of atmospheric fields is in the continuous "background" and this defines instead a trichotomy with a "macroweather" regime in the intermediate range from ≈10 ...

How will melting of ice affect volcanic hazards in the 21st century? [PDF]
, 2010 Glaciers and ice sheets on many active volcanoes are rapidly receding. There is compelling evidence that melting of ice during the last deglaciation triggered a dramatic acceleration in volcanic activity.
