Scientists say these 6 weather patterns are suddenly scaring climate researchers away from old models
Something has shifted in the way climate scientists talk about their own work. The language has become noticeably more ...
Global warming is causing extreme heat around the world. Now El Niño, a natural phenomenon that disrupts global weather patterns, is also at work.
Whether the tropical Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) warming pattern under global warming resembles El Niño or La Niña remains uncertain, partly due to unrealistically simulated El Niño–Southern ...
The circumglobal teleconnection pattern (CGT) is a key mode of atmospheric variability during boreal summer, identified by an upper-tropospheric wave train propagating along the subtropical jet. CGT ...
The Walker circulation, an atmospheric circulation pattern in the tropics, has accelerated in recent years, puzzling climate scientists who had anticipated the opposite. Researchers from the Max ...
Meier: “What happens in the Arctic does not stay in the Arctic.” That’s Walt Meier, a senior research scientist at the National Snow and Ice Data Center at the University of Colorado. He says Arctic ...
The underexplored impact of climate change on influenza outbreak severity and duration hampers our understanding of how climate-driven changes affect transmission dynamics. Our study employs the SIRS ...
Schematic of CGT and its impact on heatwave. The upper-tropospheric wave train is CGT, and the anti-cyclonic (cyclonic) anomaly can lead to longer (shorter) duration of heatwave. The Circum-global ...
Real-time tools, visuals, and other resources to quantify the role of climate change in weather events. Alerts We issues alerts in many instances when the Climate Shift Index identifies a notable ...
A new review published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences sheds light on one of climate science’s enduring puzzles: how the patterns of tropical ocean warming influence the behavior of tropical ...
El Niño is the warm phase of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), a semi-regular recurring cycle that transfers vast ...
