  • Tropical Cyclone Projections

    Open AccessMatthew J Widlansky, Hariharasubramanian Annamalai et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2019

    Potential changing climate threats in the tropical and subtropical North Pacific Ocean were assessed, using coupled ocean–atmosphere and atmosphere-only general circulation models, to explore their response to projected increasing greenhouse gas emissions. Tropical cyclone occurrence, described by frequency and intensity, near islands housing major U.S. defense installations was the primary focus. Four island regions—Guam and Kwajalein Atoll in t…

  • Increased wind risk from sting-jet windstorms with climate change

    Open AccessOscar Martínez‐Alvarado, Suzanne L Gray et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    Extra-tropical cyclones dominate autumn and winter weather over western Europe. The strongest cyclones, often termed windstorms, have a large socio-economic impact on landfall due to strong surface winds and coastal storm surges. Climate model integrations have predicted a future increase in the frequency of, and potential damage from, European windstorms and yet these integrations cannot properly represent localised jets, such as sting jets, tha…

  • A critical assessment of the long-term changes in the wintertime surface Arctic Oscillation and Northern Hemisphere storminess in the ERA20C reanalysis

    Open AccessHannah Bloomfield, Len Shaffrey et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    This study investigates the robustness of the long-term changes in the wintertime surface Arctic Oscillation (AO) in the ERA20C reanalysis. A statistically significant trend in the AO is found in ERA20C over the period 1900-2010. These long-term changes in the AO are not found in two other observational datasets. The long-term change in the AO in ERA20C is associated with statistically significant negative trend (approximately -6 hPa per century)…

  • Significantly increased extreme precipitation expected in Europe and North America from extratropical cyclones

    Open AccessMatt Hawcroft, E Walsh et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    For the Northern Hemisphere extratropics, changes in the mid-latitude storm tracks are key to understanding the impacts of climate warming, but projections of their future location in current climate models are affected by large uncertainty. Here, we show that in spite of this uncertainty in the atmospheric circulation response to warming, by analysing the behaviour of the storms (or extratropical cyclones) themselves, projections of change in th…

  • Variability of the North Atlantic summer storm track

    Open AccessBuwen Dong, Rowan Sutton et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2013

    The summertime variability of the extratropical storm track over the Atlantic sector and its links to European climate have been analysed for the period 1948-2011 using observations and reanalyses. The main results are as follows. (1) The dominant mode of the summer storm track density variability is characterized by a meridional shift of the storm track between two distinct paths and is related to a bimodal distribution in the climatology for th…
