      Dunn-Sigouin, Etienne; Li, Camille; Kushner, Paul J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Arctic moisture transport is dominated by planetary-scale waves in reanalysis. Planetary waves are influenced by localized Sea-Surface Temperature (SST) features such as the tropical warm pool. Here, an aquaplanet model ...

      Caroletti, Giulio Nils (Doctoral thesis, 2015-06-24)
      Orographic precipitation has always been a major field of study in atmospheric sciences, because of its major role in the water budget and its influence on environmental hazards like floods and droughts - and thus on human ...

    • The linear stationary wave response to Arctic amplification related heating 

      Sellevold, Raymond (Master thesis, 2015-06-01)
      There has been a raft of manuscripts which claim to show that Arctic amplification (AA) is responsible for changes in the large-scale wintertime midlatitude atmospheric circulation. Responses to these studies have shown ...

    • Linking Instantaneous and Climatological Perspectives on Eddy-Driven and Subtropical Jets 

      Spensberger, Clemens; Li, Camille; Spengler, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The distinction between eddy-driven and subtropical jets is conceptually important and well-founded based on different driving mechanisms and dominant types of variability. This climatological perspective may be augmented ...

    • Linking Northern High-Latitude Cryospheric Changes to Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation 

      Knudsen, Erlend Moster (Doctoral thesis, 2015-03-20)
      Warming twice as fast as the rest of the globe, the northern high-latitudes arguably show the clearest evidences of observed and projected climate changes. Two of these are the rapid loss of Arctic sea ice and the shrinking ...

    • Linking Sub-Tropical Evaporation and Extreme Precipitation Over East Antarctica: An Atmospheric River Case Study 

      Terpstra, Annick; Gorodetskaya, Irina V.; Sodemann, Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      We investigate an intense snowfall event between 15 and 18 February 2011 over the East Antarctic coastal region which contributed to roughly 24% of the annual snow accumulation. The event was previously associated with an ...

    • Local flow conditions in the Bergen valley based on observations and numerical simulations 

      Valved, Aslaug Skålevik (Master thesis, 2012-10-16)
      The complex topography and variability in surface roughness in the Bergen valley aff-ects the flow conditions in a multitude of ways. The steep mountains give shelter during strong synoptic flow, but the orography of Bergen ...

    • Local-scale deposition of surface snow on the Greenland ice sheet 

      Zuhr, Alexandra M.; Münch, Thomas; Steen-Larsen, Hans Christian; Hörhold, Maria; Laepple, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Ice cores from polar ice sheets and glaciers are an important climate archive. Snow layers, consecutively deposited and buried, contain climatic information from the time of their formation. However, particularly ...
