As warm air rises and cold air sinks it forms three atmospheric circulation cells north of the equator and three to the south. These circulation cells move over land and sea to redistribute the ...

The air above the poles is cold. The cold air sinks creating high pressure. The air moves towards the equatorial low-pressure zone, and warms up when it meets the land or ocean. At around 60 ...

I examine how large-scale atmospheric circulation over the Southern Ocean, including the coupling of low- and high-pressure systems, helps to drive warm and moist air masses onto the West Antarctic ...

How fast the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide — and with it, the temperature — goes up matters for the ability of humans ...

This convective activity transfers large amounts of energy to the upper-atmosphere over the Maritime Continent and contributes to the east/west circulation in the tropical atmosphere, known as the ...

A recent study sheds light on the spatio-temporal patterns of temperature extremes in China over the past six decades, revealing alarming warming trends and highlighting the critical role of ...

With such a slowdown, scientists estimate the ocean will pull down less carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, a slower circulation should also dredge up less carbon from the deep ocean that ...
