    Changes in Northern Hemisphere temperature variability shaped by regional warming patterns

    Global warming involves changes not only in the mean atmospheric temperature, but also in its variability and extremes. Here, we use a feature-tracking technique to investigate the dynamical contribution to te...

    Clouds, circulation and climate sensitivity

    Our understanding of the interactions between clouds, circulation and climate is limited. Four central research questions — now tractable through advances in models, concepts and observations — are proposed to...

    Atmospheric circulation as a source of uncertainty in climate change projections

    Scientific confidence in climate change effects is much higher for aspects related to global patterns of surface temperature, than for circulation. Circulation will remain hard to predict, necessitating a risk...

    Large climate-induced changes in ultraviolet index and stratosphere-to-troposphere ozone flux

    Now that stratospheric ozone depletion has been controlled by the Montreal Protocol, interest has turned to the effects of climate change on the ozone layer. An atmospheric chemistry model suggests that climat...

    Raising the roof

    The atmosphere's lowermost 10 km have long been assumed to be almost solely responsible for weather and climate on Earth. Emerging evidence points to the layer above as an important influence on surface winds ...
