On the attribution of weather events to climate change using a fit to extreme value distributions

Peter Sherman, Peter Huybers, Eli Tziperman

Changes in extreme weather events are a potentially important aspect of anthropogenic climate change (ACC), yet, are difficult to attribute to ACC because the record length is ofte…

An approach for projecting the timing of abrupt winter Arctic sea ice loss

Camille Hankel, Eli Tziperman

Abrupt and irreversible winter Arctic sea-ice loss may occur under anthropogenic warming due to the collapse of a sea-ice equilibrium at a threshold value of CO, commonly refer…

Non-synchronous rotation on Europa driven by ocean currents

Yosef Ashkenazy, Eli Tziperman, Francis Nimmo

It has been suggested that the ice shell of Jupiter's moon Europa may drift non-synchronously due to tidal torques. Here we argue that torques applied by the underlying ocean are a…

Exploring subtropical stratocumulus multiple equilibria using a mixed-layer model

Andrea M. Salazar, Eli Tziperman

Stratocumulus clouds cover about a fifth of Earths surface, and due to their albedo and low-latitude location, they have a strong effect on Earths radiation budget. Previous studie…

Testing the consistency of the resonant wave interaction approximation with simulated dynamics of idealized 2D internal wave fields

Golan Bel, Eli Tziperman

Nonlinear interactions of internal ocean waves play an important role in ocean mixing and are of theoretical interest even in idealized settings. According to the resonant wave int…

Mid-depth Ocean Stratification: Southern Ocean eddies vs interior vertical diffusivity

Xiaoting Yang, Eli Tziperman

The mid-depth ocean stratification was fitted by Munk (1966) to an exponential profile and shown to be consistent with a vertical advective-diffusive balance. However, tracer relea…

Dynamic Europa ocean shows transient Taylor columns and convection driven by ice melting and salinity

Yosef Ashkenazy, Eli Tziperman

The deep (~100 km) ocean of Europa, Jupiter's moon, covered by a thick icy shell, is one of the most probable places in the solar system to find extraterrestrial life. Yet, its oce…

Reconciling the Observed Mid-Depth Exponential Ocean Stratification with Weak Interior Mixing and Southern Ocean Dynamics via Boundary-Intensified Mixing

Madeline D. Miller, Xiaoting Yang, Eli Tziperman

Munk (1966) showed that the deep (1000-3000 m) vertical temperature profile is consistent with a one-dimensional vertical advection-diffusion balance, with a constant upwelling and…

Tropical and Extratropical General Circulation with a Meridional Reversed Temperature Gradient as Expected in a High Obliquity Planet

Wanying Kang, Ming Cai, Eli Tziperman

Planets with high obliquity receive more radiation in the polar regions than at low latitudes, and thus, assuming an ocean-covered surface with sufficiently high heat capacity, the…

Exploring the Nonlinear Cloud and Rain Equation

Ilan Koren, Eli Tziperman, Graham Feingold

Marine stratocumulus cloud decks are regarded as the reflectors of the climate system, returning back to space a significant part of the income solar radiation, thus cooling the at…

A full, self-consistent, treatment of thermal wind balance on oblate fluid planets

Eli Galanti, Yohai Kaspi, Eli Tziperman

The nature of the flow below the cloud level on Jupiter and Saturn is still unknown. Relating the flow on these planets to perturbations in their density field is key to the analys…

Excitation of slow MJO-like Kelvin waves in the equatorial atmosphere by Yanai wave-group via WISHE-induced convection

Aviv Solodoch, William Boos, Zhiming Kuang +1

The intraseasonal Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) involves a slow eastward-propagating signal in the tropical atmosphere which significantly influences climate yet is not well unde…

Mechanisms of Seasonal - ENSO interaction

Eli Tziperman, Steve Zebiak, Mark Cane

The mechanisms of interaction between the seasonal cycle and ENSO are investigated using the Zebiak and Cane ENSO prediction model. The most dominant seasonal effect is found to be…
