The distribution of the daily wintertime North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index in the 40-yr ECMWF ReAnalysis (ERA-40) is significantly negatively skewed. Dynamical and statistical analyses both suggest that this skewness reflects the presence of two distinct regimes—referred to as ‘‘Greenland blocking’’ and ‘‘subpolar jet.’’ Changes in both the relative occurrence and in the structure of the r...

شرایط افروزش و اشتعال سوخت‌های گداخت هسته‌ای در حضور ناخالص­‌ها، یکی از موارد مهمی است که طراحی قرص‌های سوخت باید مورد توجه قرار گیرد. این مقاله اثر ناخالصی هسته سنگین طلا بر کلیه فرایندهای احتراق پلاسمای غیرتعادلی دوتریم- تریتیم مدل چهار دمایی آن شکل تابع توزیع انرژی رفتار فوتون‌ها تأثیر می‌گذارد بررسی گرفته است. مطالعه شامل اثرات منفی سوخت، طول زمان تشکیل لکه داغ نتایج محاسبات عددی به­ دست آم...

This study investigates the impact of CO2 on the amplitude, frequency, and mechanisms of Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) variability in millennial simulations of the HadCM3 coupled climate model. Multichannel singular spectrum analysis (MSSA) and empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) are applied to the AMOC at four quasi-equilibrium CO2 forcings. The amount of variance explai...

[1] We assess the contribution made to the interannual variability of the global methane accumulation rate from its atmospheric sink using the STOCHEM tropospheric chemistry model coupled to the HadCM3 climate model. For both control and climate change scenarios, the standard deviation of the detrended accumulation rate was 1.4 ppbv/ yr for the period 1990–2009, compared with the measured stand...

The sensitivity of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) to changes in mean climate is investigated for simulations of pre-industrial and mid-Holocene (6000 years before present) climate using the Hadley Centre coupled atmosphere-ocean model, HadCM3. Orbitally-forced changes in insolation in the mid-Holocene produce changes in seasonality which may alter ENSO amplitude and frequency. The model si...
