Abstract Four meteorological components (geopotential height Z , air temperature T dew point Td, and relative humidity RH) collected from ERA-5 ERA-Interim were compared with the observations of nine radiosonde stations different climatic changes, at isobaric levels (850, 700, 500, 200 hPa) during period 2000–2017, in order to assess accuracy aforementioned reanalysis datasets. The results show...

in this paper, the correlation between total ozone and upper air meteorological parameters such as heights of geopotential surfaces and temperatures for three stations of tehran, ankara and bet dagan located in the middle east, in cold period (jan, feb and march) of years of 2005, 2007 and 2008 has been investigated. data for upper air is taken from wyoming university and ozone data is from sat...

The occurrence of major avalanche episodes in the Eastern Pyrenees (NE Spain) is estimated by means of the Poisson and the negative binomial distributions, assuming that they are rare events. The differences observed in their spatial distribution along the seven regions in which Eastern Pyrenees have been divided, suggests us to look for spatial variations in the relationship between extreme av...

Neural network models are used to reveal the nonlinear winter atmospheric teleconnection patterns associated with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and with the Arctic Oscillation (AO) over the N. Hemisphere. The nonlinear teleconnections (for surface air temperature, precipitation, sea level pressure and 500 hPa geopotential height) are found to relate quadratically to the ENSO and AO in...

A popular methodology to filter seemingly chaotic atmospheric flow into an ordered set of modes of variability is to identify those patterns of geopotential height that occur often. Historically, understanding of the leading patterns or modes of variability was determined through linear statistical methods. Recently, nonlinear methods, such as kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), have be...
