Variability of large-scale atmospheric circulation indices for the northern hemisphere during the past 100 years

We present an analysis of the large-scale atmospheric circulation variability since 1900 based on various circulation indices. They represent the main features of the zonal mean circulation in the northern hemisphere in boreal winter (such as the Hadley circulation, the subtropical jet, and the polar vortex in the lower stratosphere) as well as aspects of the regional and large-scale circulatio...

Maintenance of the boreal-forest rainbelts during northern summer

It is not unreasonable to expect that boreal forests which exist along 60 o N in the Eurasian and North American continents were created and are maintained by warm seasonal rainfall. As revealed from satellite observations and various precipitation sources, zonally elongated rainbelts appear along these forests. Previous studies show that a relationship may exist between the frontal zone along ...
