Definition, detection, and tracking of persistent structures in atmospheric flows
Johannes von Lindheim, Abhishek Harikrishnan, Tom Dörffel +8
Long-lived flow patterns in the atmosphere such as weather fronts, mid-latitude blockings or tropical cyclones often induce extreme weather conditions. As a consequence, their desc…
The dynamic state index with moisture and phase changes
Sabine Hittmeir, Rupert Klein, Annette Müller +1
The dynamic state index (DSI) is a scalar field that combines variational information on the total energy and enstrophy of a flow field with the second law of thermodynamics. Its m…
QG-DL: Dynamics of a diabatic layer in the quasi-geostrophic framework
Rupert Klein, Lisa Schielicke, Stephan Pfahl +1
Quasi-geostrophic (QG) theory describes the dynamics of synoptic scale flows in the trophosphere that are balanced with respect to both acoustic and internal gravity waves. Within…
