Interactive comment on “ Dynamical properties and extremes of Northern Hemisphere climate fields over the past 60 years ” by Davide
نویسنده
چکیده
The authors analyze dynamical properties of daily surface pressure, surface temperature and precipitation rate using two parameters from a universal distribution derived in previous research from extreme value theory of Poincaré recurrences. The two parameters, local dimension of the phase space attractor and the inverse of the average residence time, are physically intuitive, and have the potential to characterize predictability of the analyzed variables.

Interactive comment on “Dynamical properties and extremes of Northern Hemisphere climate fields over the past 60 years” by Davide Faranda et al
QUERY: Authors present an important application of the of the extreme value theory to Poincaré recurrences in dynamical systems, which can provide estimations of some metrics of the ergodic chaotic attractors, namely the phase-space local dimension and local recurrence. Authors apply the technique to relevant daily fields: the sea level pressure, surface air temperature and precipitation rate, ...

متن کاملReconstruction of the Central Zagros paleo climate and paleo environment
Introduction The study of lake sediments has been widely used in recent decades to identify past climate and environmental changes. Lake basins have significant spatial and temporal patterns and provide valuable evidences of physical and chemical changes. However, in general, the climate of the Holocene period has been more stable and uniform than previous glacial and interglacial periods. How...
متن کاملTrends of Extreme Temperature Over the Lake Urmia Basin, Iran, During 1987-2014
The variability of temperature extremes has been the focus of attention during the past several decades and had a great influence on the hydrologic cycle. A long-term, high-quality daily maximum (TX) and minimum temperature (TN) of seven stations was used to determine the spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme temperature events in Lake Urmia Basin in Iran during 1987 to 2014. The RCli...
متن کاملIntensification of Northern Hemisphere subtropical highs in a warming climate
Semi-permanent high-pressure systems over the subtropical oceans, known as subtropical highs, influence atmospheric circulation, as well as global climate. For instance, subtropical highs largely determine the location of the world’s subtropical deserts, the zones of Mediterranean climate and the tracks of tropical cyclones. The intensity of two such high-pressure systems, present over the Nort...
