The climate characteristics of the annual mean of the kinetic energy (500 hPa, 1948~2011) (The unit is m2 s-2 1 kg, a~c are plotted by the three-pattern decomposition model, while d~f are plotted ...

Tropical storms - OCR Global atmospheric circulation. Tropical storms are immensely powerful and can travel up to speeds of 65 km/h. They are made up of rotating, moist air. Part of Geography ...

There is a surplus of energy at the tropics and a deficit in polar areas. Atmospheric and oceanic circulation redistributes this energy, maintaining the global energy balance. Part of Geography ...

Here we probe the system to determine whether certain regions of the Southern Ocean are more critical than others for air–sea CO2 balance and the biological export production, by increasing surface ...

Circulation in the waters near the Antarctic coast may be one of the planet's critical means of regulating levels of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere, according to Princeton researchers.

General Circulation Models (GCMs) are a class of computer-driven models for weather forecasting, understanding climate and projecting climate change, where they are commonly called Global Climate ...

Over the past two decades, satellite-based planetary observations have recorded rapid mass loss of Patagonian glaciers, contributing approximately 0.07 mm per year to global sea-level rise. A ...
