Strong thermospheric cooling during the 2009 major stratosphere warming
[1] Thermospheric density simultaneously observed by the CHAMP and GRACE satellites in both the pre‐dawn and afternoon local time sectors undergoes significant decrease across both hemispheres during the major stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) in January 2009. This decrease is largest in the equatorial region near the subsolar latitude, reaching ∼30% at 325 km, and 45% at 475 km altitude in th...
متن کاملStratosphere - Troposphere Interaction during Stratospheric Sudden Warming Events
The stratosphere and the troposphere exhibit a strong coupling during the winter months. However, the coupling mechanisms between the respective vertical layers are not fully understood. An idealized spectral core dynamical model is utilized in the present study in order to clarify the coupling timing, location and mechanisms. Since the coupling between the winter stratosphere and troposphere i...
متن کاملMesoscale simulations of gravity waves during the 2008–2009 major stratospheric sudden warming
[1] A series of 24 h mesoscale simulations (of 10 km horizontal and 400 m vertical resolution) are performed to examine the characteristics and forcing of gravity waves (GWs) relative to planetary waves (PWs) during the 2008–2009 major stratospheric sudden warming (SSW). Just prior to SSW occurrence, widespread westward propagating GWs are found along the vortex’s edge and associated predominan...
متن کاملPethidine and skin warming to prevent shivering during endovascular cooling.
We tested the efficacy of pethidine and cutaneous warming to prevent shivering during percutaneous cooling in unanaesthetized patients. Ten patients scheduled for cranial neurosurgery received pethidine infusion and skin warming. The Setpoint internal heat-exchanging catheter was inserted and cooling to 33.5 degrees C was started. Clonidine and chlorpromazine were given as "rescue medication" t...
متن کاملCooling Flows or Warming Rays?
The radiative cooling time of the X-ray-emitting plasma near the center in many clusters of galaxies is shorter than the age of the cluster, but neither the expected large drop in central temperature –nor the expected mass flow towards the pressure-depleted cluster centers– are observed. We propose a solution to these “cooling flow” problems wherein energy is supplied to the plasma by hadronic ...
