Latitudinal storm track shift in a reduced two-level model of the atmosphere
Melanie Kobras, Maarten H. P. Ambaum, Valerio Lucarini
The eddy-driven jet stream and storm tracks in the mid-latitude atmosphere are known to shift in latitude on various timescales, but the physical processes that cause these shifts…
Eddy saturation in a reduced two-level model of the atmosphere
Melanie Kobras, Maarten H. P. Ambaum, Valerio Lucarini
Eddy saturation describes the nonlinear mechanism in geophysical flows whereby, when average conditions are considered, direct forcing of the zonal flow increases the eddy kinetic…
Simulation of cloud drop collisions in ABC flow
Torsten Auerswald, Maarten H. P. Ambaum
Simulating the collision behaviour of cloud drops in a turbulent environment is numerically expensive. Because of the typical sizes of cloud drops, their motion is predominantly in…
Frequentist vs Bayesian statistics - a non-statisticians view
Maarten H. P. Ambaum
People who by training end up dealing with probabilities ("statisticians") roughly fall into one of two camps. One is either a frequentist or a Bayesian. To a scientist, who needs…
Thermodynamic derivation and use of a nonequilibrium canonical ensemble
Maarten H. P. Ambaum
A thermodynamic expression for the analog of the canonical ensemble for nonequilibrium systems is described based on a purely information theoretical interpretation of entropy. As…
Significance Tests in Climate Science
Maarten H. P. Ambaum
A large fraction of papers in the climate literature includes erroneous uses of significance tests. A Bayesian analysis is presented to highlight the meaning of significance tests…
