The recent slowdown in the warming of global surface temperatures has been linked to the enhancement of trade winds in the central equatorial Pacific. The possible role of Asian aerosol emissions in forcing these wind anomalies is investigated through a series of idealized model simulations. Circulation patterns in response to localized negative radiative perturbations, indicative of aerosol ef...

Abstract Aerosol mixtures, which are still unclear in current knowledge, may cause large uncertainties aerosol climate effect assessments. To better understand this research gap, a well-developed online coupled regional climate-chemistry model is employed here to investigate the influences of different mixing states on direct interactions between aerosols and East Asian summer monsoon (EASM). T...

OBJECTIVES A non-progressive and conductive hearing loss with normal eardrum, but no history of trauma and infection, is highly suggestive of a congenital ossicular malformation. Among ossicular anomalies, stapes anomaly is the most common. The purpose of this study is to describe patterns of stapes anomaly and to analyze its surgical outcome with special reference to its patterns. METHODS We...

identification of spatial-temporal anomalies sea level pressure in iran was the main aim in this research. for this purpose six hourly data used from the to eastern longitude and to northern latitude. in this location, there are 825 pixels to geographical degree. therefore, database extent created. in this matrix, 825 are number of the pixels at that location and 90520 is number of six hourly s...

Statistical methodology is devised to model time series of daily weather at individual locations in the southeastern U.S. conditional on patterns in large-scale atmosphere–ocean circulation. In this way, weather information on an appropriate temporal and spatial scale for input to crop–climate models can be generated, consistent with the relationship between circulation and temporally and/or sp...

[1] The seasonal evolution of sea-ice extent, concentration, and drift in the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) region, along with regional atmospheric synoptic variability, are described for a winter period (1992) when sea-ice advance and retreat were both anomalously early. Daily time series of winds, opening and closing of the sea-ice cover, and volume fluxes in and out of the WAP region ind...

The ocean circulation and its fluctuations are known to have important consequences for climate variations. It is believed that the datively rapid swings of global temperatures (over 10 degree change in less than 30-50 years) in the past interglacial period is primarily associated with changes in the global ocean circulation which regulates the transport of water, heat, and carbon dioxide in th...
