Atmospheric Circulation Response to Short-Term Arctic Warming in an Idealized Model
Hell, Momme; Schneider, Tapio; Li, Camille (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Recent Arctic sea ice loss in fall has been posited to drive midlatitude circulation changes into winter and even spring.

Connecting ocean heat transport changes from the mid-latitudes to the Arctic Ocean
Nummelin, Aleksi; Li, Camille; Hezel, Paul (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02)Under greenhouse warming, climate models simulate a weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation and the associated ocean heat transport at midlatitudes but an increase in the ocean heat transport to the ... -
Consequences of future increased Arctic runoff on Arctic Ocean stratification, circulation, and sea ice cover
Nummelin, Aleksi; Ilicak, Mehmet; Li, Camille; Smedsrud, Lars Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-21)The Arctic Ocean has important freshwater sources including river runoff, low evaporation, and exchange with the Pacific Ocean. In the future, we expect even larger freshwater input as the global hydrological cycle ... -
Control of Barents Sea wintertime cyclone variability by large-scale atmospheric flow
Madonna, Erica; Hes, Gabriel; Li, Camille; Michel, Clio; Siew, Yu Feng (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Extratropical cyclones transport heat and moisture into the Arctic, which can promote surface warming and sea ice melt. We investigate wintertime cyclone variability in the Barents Sea region to understand what controls ... -
Coupled atmosphere-ice-ocean dynamics in Dansgaard-Oeschger events
Li, Camille; Born, Andreas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-11-10)The Dansgaard-Oeschger events of the last ice age are among the best studied abrupt climate changes, yet a comprehensive explanation is still lacking. They are most pronounced in the North Atlantic, where they manifest as ... -

Dynamical drivers of Greenland blocking in climate models
Michel, Clio; Madonna, Erica; Spensberger, Clemens; Li, Camille; Outten, Stephen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Blocking over Greenland is known to lead to strong surface impacts, such as ice sheet melting, and a change in its future frequency can have important consequences. However, as previous studies demonstrated, climate models ... -
Intermittency of Arctic–mid-latitude teleconnections: stratospheric pathway between autumn sea ice and the winter North Atlantic Oscillation
Siew, Yu Feng; Li, Camille; Sobolowski, Stefan Pieter; King, Martin Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)There is an observed relationship linking Arctic sea ice conditions in autumn to mid-latitude weather the following winter.
