• A modeling study of the tripole pattern of East China precipitation over the past 425 ka 

      Dai, Gaowen; Zhang, Zhongshi; Otterå, Odd Helge; Langebroek, Petra; Yan, Qing; Zhang, Ran (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The traditional paleoclimatological view suggests that monsoonal China was overall wetter when the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) was strong. However, this view is at odds with the understanding of modern climate, which ...
    • Arctic Troposphere Warming Driven by External Radiative Forcing and Modulated by the Pacific and Atlantic 

      Suo, Lingling; Gao, Yongqi; Gastineau, Guillaume; Liang, Yu-Chiao; Ghosh, Rohit; Tian, Tian; Zhang, Ying; Kwon, Young-Oh; Matei, Daniela; Otterå, Odd Helge; Yang, Shuting (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      During the past decades, the Arctic has experienced significant tropospheric warming, with varying decadal warming rates. However, the relative contributions from potential drivers and modulators of the warming are yet to ...
    • Diverse Surface Signatures of Stratospheric Polar Vortex Anomalies 

      Kolstad, Erik Wilhelm; Lee, S.H.; Butler, A.H.; Domeisen, D.I.V.; Wulff, C. Ole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The Arctic stratospheric polar vortex is an important driver of winter weather and climate variability and predictability in North America and Eurasia, with a downward influence that on average projects onto the North ...
    • Impact of Mountains in Southern China on the Eocene Climates of East Asia 

      Zhang, Zijian; Zhang, Zhongshi; He, Zhilin; Tan, Ning; Guo, Zhengtang; Zhu, Jiang; Steinig, Sebastian; Donnadieu, Yannick; Ladant, Jean-Baptiste; Chan, Wing-Le; Abe-Ouchi, Ayako; Niezgodzki, Igor; Knorr, Gregor; Hutchinson, David K.; de Boer, Agatha M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Inconsistencies in the Eocene climates of East Asia have been revealed in both geological studies and simulations. Several earlier reconstructions showed an arid zonal band in mid-latitude China, but others showed a humid ...
    • Simulated Cycles of East Asian Temperature and Precipitation Over the Past 425 ka 

      Dai, Gaowen; Zhang, Zhongshi; Otterå, Odd Helge; Langebroek, Petra; Yan, Qing; Zhang, Ran (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Records from a wide range of geological archives covering the last few glacial-interglacial cycles show large inconsistencies in the East Asian summer monsoon variability, which severely hampers our understanding of the ...
    • Systematic Calibration of a Convection-Resolving Model: Application Over Tropical Atlantic 

      Liu, Shuchang; Zeman, Christian; Sørland, Silje Lund; Schär, Christoph (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Non-hydrostatic km-scale weather and climate models show significant improvements in simulating clouds and precipitation, especially of convective nature. However, even km-scale models need to parameterize some physical ...
