On the properties of greenCu: continental, organized shallow clouds Open
Prevalent over the world’s oceans and continents, shallow clouds still comprise a main aspect of the uncertainty related to cloud feedback and climate sensitivity. Compared to shallow clouds over the ocean, confined to specific marin…

Dynamics of dry intrusion air streams and their relevance for extreme weather Open
<p>Dry intrusion (DI) air streams typically comprise the cold and dry sector of extratropical cyclones. These air parcels descend slantwise from the midlatitude upper troposphere towards the surface in lower latitudes, where the airs…

Uncovering the Large‐Scale Meteorology That Drives Continental, Shallow, Green Cumulus Through Supervised Classification Open
One of the major sources of uncertainty in climate prediction results from the limitations in representing shallow cumulus (Cu) in models. Recently, a class of continental shallow convective Cu was shown to share distinct morphological pro…

The mistral wind from a Rossby-wave perspective: a climatological classification of RWB Open
<p>The Gulf of Genoa is one of the most cyclogenetic places on the globe, mostly due to Alpine lee-cyclogenesis. The mistral wind is an inherent feature in this process, known for its positive contribution to the deepening of the lee…

A Synoptic View of the Onset of the Mid-Latitude QBO Signal Open
The extratropical effect of the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), known as the Holton-Tan effect, is manifest as aweaker, warmer winter Arctic polar vortex during the east QBO phase. While previous studies have shown that the extratropical…

Large-scale drivers of the mistral wind: link to Rossby wave life cycles and seasonal variability Open
The mistral is a northerly low-level jet blowing through the Rhône valley in southern France and down to the Gulf of Lion. It is co-located with the cold sector of a low-level lee cyclone in the Gulf of Genoa, behind an upper-level trough …

Predicting origins of coherent air mass trajectories using a neural network—the case of dry intrusions Open
Mid‐latitude cyclones are complex weather systems that are tightly related to surface weather impacts. Coherent air streams are known to be associated with such systems, in particular dry intrusions (DIs) in which dry air masses descend sl…

Can we predict Dry Air Intrusions using an Artificial Neural Network? Open
<p>Dry-air intrusions (DIs) descending from the upper troposphere toward the surface are often associated with abrupt modification of the atmospheric boundary layer,air-sea interface, and high impact weather events. Understanding the…

The life cycle of cyclones, dry intrusions and cold fronts and their role in air-sea interaction Open
<p>Air-sea interaction in the midlatitudes is modulated by the passage of extratropical cyclones and their trailing fronts. Particularly strong ocean heat loss (both sensible and latent) is observed in the post-cold frontal region. I…

Radiative effects of ozone waves on the Northern Hemisphere polar vortex and its modulation by the QBO Open
The radiative effects induced by the zonally asymmetric part of the ozone field have been shown to significantly change the temperature of the NH winter polar cap, and correspondingly the strength of the polar vortex. In this paper, we aim…

Radiative effects of ozone waves on the Northern Hemisphere polar vortex and its modulation by the QBO Open
The radiative effects induced by including interactive ozone, in particular, the zonally asymmetric part of the ozone field, have been shown to significantly change the temperature of the NH winter polar cap, and correspondingly the streng…

How does downward planetary wave coupling affect polar stratospheric ozone in the Arctic winter stratosphere? Open
It is well established that variable wintertime planetary wave forcing in the stratosphere controls the variability of Arctic stratospheric ozone through changes in the strength of the polar vortex and the residual circulation. While previ…

Stratospheric response to intraseasonal changes in incoming solar radiation Open
Superposed epoch analysis of meteorological reanalysis data is used to demonstrate a significant connection between intraseasonal solar variability and temperatures in the stratosphere. Decreasing solar flux leads to a cooling of the tropi…
