Zonal-mean circulation response to reduced air-sea momentum roughness

I. Polichtchouk, T. G. Shepherd

The impact of uncertainties in surface layer physics on the atmospheric general circulation is comparatively unexplored. Here the sensitivity of the zonal-mean circulation to reduc…

Edge States in the Climate System: Exploring Global Instabilities and Critical Transitions

Valerio Lucarini, Tamas Bodai

Multistability is a ubiquitous feature in systems of geophysical relevance and provides key challenges for our ability to predict a system's response to perturbations. Near critica…

Fluctuations, Response, and Resonances in a Simple Atmospheric Model

Andrey Gritsun, Valerio Lucarini

We study the response of a simple quasi-geostrophic barotropic model of the atmosphere to various classes of perturbations affecting its forcing and its dissipation using the forma…

Equatorial superrotation in Held & Suarez-like flows with weak equator-to-pole surface temperature gradient

Inna Polichtchouk, James Y-K. Cho

Equatorial superrotation under zonally-symmetric thermal forcing is investigated in a setup close to that of the classic Held & Suarez (1994) setup. In contrast to the behaviour in…

Atmospheric changes from solar eclipses

Karen Aplin, Chris Scott, Suzanne Gray

This article reviews atmospheric changes associated with 44 solar eclipses, beginning with the first quantitative results available, from 1834 (earlier qualitative, accounts also e…
