Atmospheric eddies mediate lapse rate feedback and Arctic amplification
Projections of amplified climate change in the Arctic are attributed to positive feedbacks associated with the retreat of sea ice and changes in the lapse rate of the polar atmosphere. Here, a set of idealized aquaplanet experiments are performed to understand the coupling between high-latitude feedbacks, polar amplification, and the large-scale atmospheric circulation. Results are compared to ...
متن کاملCanadian Water Quality Guidelines for the Protection of Aquatic Life - Dissolved Gas Supersaturation
issolved gas supersaturation (DGS) is a condition that occurs when the partial pressures of atmospheric gases in solution exceed their respective partial pressures in the atmosphere. Individual atmospheric dissolved gases (oxygen, nitrogen, and trace gases such as argon and carbon dioxide) can often be supersaturated without adverse effects on aquatic and marine organisms. When the sum of the p...
متن کاملPOTASSIUM-ARGON ANALYSIS OF DOMAL SALT BY STEPWISE DISSOLUTION
Potassium-argon analysis by stqwise dissolution provides a way to measure in detail the distribution of argon isotopes and potassium in rock salt. The method can be used for salt that contains only trace amounts of potassium, because the potassium and argon in detrital silicates within the salt are not released during the dissolution. Water may be used as the solvent when relatively large a...
متن کاملMoist Synoptic Transport of CO2 Along Midlatitude Storm Tracks, Transport Uncertainty, and Implications for Flux Estimation
OF DISSERTATION Moist Synoptic Transport of CO2 Along Midlatitude Storm Tracks, Transport Uncertainty, and Implications for Flux Estimation Mass transport along moist isentropic surfaces on baroclinic waves represents an important component of the atmospheric heat engine that operates between the equator and poles. This is also an important vehicle for tracer transport, and is correlated with e...
متن کاملThe Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) and northern high latitude wintertime surface air temperatures
[1] The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is the primary mode of large-scale intraseasonal variability in the tropics. Recent work has connected the MJO to atmospheric variability in mid-latitudes. We focus on relationships between the MJO and wintertime surface air temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere high latitudes. The MJO is diagnosed using principal EOF of 850 hPa zonal winds from the NCE...
