Nonnormal Frontal Dynamics
(American Meteorological Society, 2010)The generalized stability of the secondary atmospheric circulation over strong SST fronts is studied using a hydrostatic, Boussinesq, two-dimensional f-plane model. It is shown that even in a parameter regime in which these ... -
The Spatial Structure of the Annual Cycle in Surface Temperature: Amplitude, Phase, and Lagrangian History
(American Meteorological Society, 2013)The climatological annual cycle in surface air temperature, defined by its amplitude and phase lag with respect to solar insolation, is one of the most familiar aspects of the climate system. Here, the authors identify ...
