Altered hydrologic feedback in a warming climate introduces a warming hole
[1] In the last 25 years of the 20th century most major land regions experienced a summer warming trend, but the central U.S. cooled by 0.2–0.8 K. In contrast most climate projections using GCMs show warming for all continental interiors including North America. We examined this discrepancy by using a regional climate model and found a circulation-precipitation coupling under enhanced greenhous...

متن کاملHurricanes in a Warming Climate
There are fundamental differences between the climate of the Southern and Northern Hemispheres. Largely, these differences are dictated by the obvious differences in the geography of the two hemispheres: the Northern Hemisphere is about 50% land, whereas about 90% of the Southern Hemisphere is ocean. This asymmetry gives a much larger seasonal cycle in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) and reduces t...
متن کاملDesert Amplification in a Warming Climate
Here I analyze the observed and projected surface temperature anomalies over land between 50°S-50°N for the period 1950-2099 by large-scale ecoregion and find strongest warming consistently and persistently seen over driest ecoregions such as the Sahara desert and the Arabian Peninsula during various 30-year periods, pointing to desert amplification in a warming climate. This amplification enha...
متن کاملHow strong is carbon cycle-climate feedback under global warming
[1] The behavior of the coupled carbon cycle and physical climate system in a global warming scenario is studied using an Earth system model including the atmosphere, land, ocean, and the carbon cycle embedded in these components. A fully coupled carbon-climate simulation and several sensitivity runs were conducted for the period of 1860–2100 with prescribed IPCC-SRES-A1B emission scenario. Res...
