Storm Track Shifts under Climate Change: What Can Be Learned from Large-Scale Dry Dynamics
Earth’s storm tracks are instrumental for transporting heat, momentum, and moisture and thus strongly influence the surface climate. Climate models, supported by a growing body of observational data, have demonstrated that storm tracks shift poleward as the climate warms. But the dynamical mechanisms responsible for this shift remain unclear. To isolate what portion of the storm track shift may...
متن کاملStorm-Track Shifts under Climate Change: Toward a Mechanistic Understanding Using Baroclinic Mean Available Potential Energy
Zonal-mean storm-track shifts in response to perturbations in climate occur even in idealized simulations of dry atmospheres with axisymmetric forcing. Nonetheless, a generally accepted theory of the mechanisms controlling the storm-track shifts is still lacking. Here, mean available potential energy (MAPE), a general measure of baroclinicity that is proportional to the square of the Eady growt...
متن کاملWhat Can Be Learned from Four Large-Scale Projects Currently Underway
This paper assesses four major research projects currently underway, each designed to gather information on what is happening to low-income families subsequent to the welfare reforms instigated by the passage of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA). Each of the projects is planned to describe some aspects of the welfare system in some places in th...
متن کاملWhat Can Be Learned from CMMi Failures?
The software crisis has been around since 1968 when NATO first identified the problematic nature of software development. In recognition of the need to manage the process of software development many methodologies have been proposed over the years. A recent contribution to this rich set of rigorous software development methodologies is the Software Engineering Institute’s (SEI) Capability Matur...
متن کاملO5: Technical Accident Reconstruction-What Can be Learned to Improve Medical Treatment in Trauma Patients
Annually, more than 1 million people were killed in road traffic accidents worldwide every year and an uncounted number were severe injured. In 2012 fatal injuries caused by road traffic accidents are under the top ten lists of causes of death in the world. It´s expected that in the near future road traffic accidents become one of the main causes of death in the world. Most of these fatal injur...
