Influence of projected Arctic sea ice loss on polar stratospheric ozone and...
The impact of projected Arctic sea ice loss on the stratosphere is investigated using the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM), a state-of-the-art coupled chemistry...- publication PDF

Skilful decadal-scale prediction of fish habitat and distribution shifts
Many fish and marine organisms are responding to our planet's changing climate by shifting their distribution. Such shifts can drive international conflicts and are highly...- publication PDF

The Amundsen Sea Low: Variability, change, and impact on Antarctic climate
The Amundsen Sea low (ASL) is a climatological low pressure center that exerts considerable influence on the climate of West Antarctica. Its potential to explain important...- publication PDF

Ocean complexity shapes sea surface temperature variability in a CESM2...
To improve understanding of ocean processes impacting monthly sea surface temperature (SST) variability, we analyze a Community Earth System Model, version 2, hierarchy in which...- publication PDF

Global river discharge and floods in the warmer climate of the last interglacial
We investigate hydrology during a past climate slightly warmer than the present: the last interglacial (LIG). With daily output of preindustrial and LIG simulations from eight...- publication PDF

Updraft/downdraft constraints for moist baroclinic modes and their...
This paper examines the dynamics of moist baroclinic modes, based on the idealized model of moist baroclinic instability devised by Emanuel et al. These authors found that the...- publication PDF

Impact of dust on climate and AMOC during the Last Glacial Maximum simulated...
While the impact of dust on climate and Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during the interglacial period such as the mid-Holocene has been studied extensively,...- publication PDF

Evaluating different geothermal heat-flow maps as basal boundary conditions...
There is currently poor scientific agreement on whether the ice–bed interface is frozen or thawed beneath approximately one third of the Greenland ice sheet. This disagreement...- publication PDF
