Role of Changes in Mean Temperatures versus Temperature Gradients in the Recent Widening of the Hadley Circulation
The Hadley circulation (HC) has widened in recent decades, and it widens as the climate warms in simulations. But the mechanisms responsible for the widening remain unclear, and the widening in simulations is generally smaller than observed. To identify mechanisms responsible for the HC widening and for model–observation discrepancies, this study analyzes how interannual variations of tropical-...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Hadley Circulation Response through Regional Climate Feedbacks
The robust weakening of the tropical atmospheric circulation in projections of anthropogenic warming is associated with substantial changes in regional and global climate. The present study focuses on understanding the response of the annual-mean Hadley circulation from a perspective of interactions between climate feedbacks and tropical circulation. Simulations from an ensemble of coupled ocea...

متن کاملSpatial Analysis of variation of inter-annual distribution of precipitation in Iran over recent decades (1970-2016)
Introduction Geographical situation of Iran is a place for interacting many physical and human processes which lead to specific precipitation climatology in the country. The month to month variation of precipitation is one of the features which the precipitation climatology may reflect due to tempo - spatial characteristics. In fact, monthly distribution of precipitation is one of precipitati...
متن کاملOn the Annual Variation of the Monthly Mean Meridional Circulation
Data for a 5-yr period from a dense network of upper air stations have been used to determine the annual cycle in the mean meridional circulation north of 15's. Only during the transition months April, May and October, November is there some degree of symmetry with respect to the Equator. During the other months of the year, the Hadley cell of the winter hemisphere with a maximum strength of ab...
