High-resolution ice concentration maps are of great interest for ship navigation and hazard forecasting. In this case study, a convolutional neural network (CNN) has been used to estimate using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) scenes captured during the melt season. These dual-pol RADARSAT-2 satellite images as input, is direct output from CNN. With no feature extraction or segmentation postprocessing, absolute mean errors generated less than 10% on average when compared with manual...

The present work identifies two types of La Niña based on the spatial distribution sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly. In contrast to eastern Pacific (EP) event, a new type (central Pacific, or CP Niña) is featured by SST cooling center over CP. These exhibit fundamental difference in anomaly evolution: EP shows westward propagation feature while exhibits standing can give rise significantly different teleconnection around globe. As response Niña, North Atlantic (NA)–Western European (WE)...

Substantial increases in the atmospheric concentration of well-mixed greenhouse gases (notably CO2), such as those projected to occur by end 21st century under large radiative forcing scenarios, have long been known cause an acceleration Brewer-Dobson circulation (BDC) climate models. More recently, however, several single-model studies proposed that ozone-depleting substances might also be important drivers BDC trends. As these were conducted with different forcings over periods, it is...

Satellite observations and chemistry‐climate model experiments are used to understand the zonal structure of tropical lower stratospheric temperature, water vapor, ozone trends. The warming in upper troposphere over past 30 years is strongest near Indo‐Pacific warm pool, while trend western central Pacific much weaker. In stratosphere, these trends reversed: historical cooling pool weakest Pacific. These variations stronger than zonal‐mean response boreal winter. Targeted with a demonstrate...

Abstract Sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) are amongst the most dramatic events in Earth’s atmosphere and they drive extreme surface weather conditions. They have been recently linked to hot dry conditions that favour wildfires over Australia. However, chance of a southern hemisphere event is unknown because it has only observed once. Legitimate estimation frequency SSW requires large sample realistic model simulations. Here we show an close 4% per year, implying will occur, on average,...

The impact of ozone-depleting substances on global lower-stratospheric temperature trends is widely recognized. In the tropics, however, understanding has proven more challenging. While tropical cooling observed from 1979 to 1997 been linked ozone decreases, those cannot be chemical origin, as active chlorine not abundant in lower stratosphere. 1979–97 are believed originate enhanced upwelling, which, it often stated, would driven by increasing concentrations well-mixed greenhouse gases....
