What drives the impact of global warming on stratospheric ozone in the tropics?
Published:
Aaron Match just submitted a very elegant paper on the impact of global warming on ozone in the tropical stratosphere to GRL! Combining the classic leaky pipe model of the stratosphere with Chapman photochemistry and a simple representation of tropospheric ozone destruction, we show that the apparant upward shift of ozone in response to global warming is actually due to fortituous overlap of several different processes.
How does moisture impact the storm tracks?
Published:
Marguerite Brown just submitted a very insightful paper on the role of moisture in the mid-latitude circulation to JAS! She builds on a pioneering work by Lapeyre and Held to use a moist 2-layer quasi-geostrophic model to tease out the competing roles of moisture and temperature in driving the midlatitude atmosphere.
