2. 1. Atmospheric and oceanic circulation from a thermodynamic perspective

   Author : Aitor Aldama Campino; Kristofer Döös; Peter Lundberg; George Nurser; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Atmospheric circulation; Ocean circulation; Stream functions; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : The climate system is continuously transporting and exchanging heat, freshwater, carbon and other tracers in different spatio-temporal scales. Therefore, analysing the system from a thermodynamic or biogeochemical framework is highly convenient. READ MORE

4. 2. Arctic Atmospheric Rivers : Eulerian and Lagrangian features, and trends over the last 40 years

   Author : Cheng You; Michael Tjernström; Abhay Devasthale; Heikki Järvinen; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic; Atmospheric river; Stratocumulus; Blocking; Turbulence; Longwave irradiance; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : Arctic Atmospheric rivers, termed ‘warm-and-moist intrusion’ (WaMAI) in this thesis, transporting heat and moisture into the Arctic from lower latitudes, is a key contributor to the amplified warming in the Arctic under global change (Arctic Amplification). However, the warming effect of WaMAIs and its transformation along the trajectories into high Arctic still remain unclear, as well as their relation with the large-scale atmospheric circulation.

5. 3. Atmospheric circulation regimes and climate change

   Author : Jenny Brandefelt; Erland Källén; Jonas Nycander; Vim Verkley; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atmospheric large-scale circulation; greenhouse gas forcing; climate sensitivity; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

   Abstract : The Earth's atmosphere is expected to warm in response to increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG). The response of the Earth's complex and chaotic climate system to the GHG emissions is, however, difficult to assess. In this thesis, two issues of importance for the assessment of this response are studied. READ MORE

6. 4. Artificial intelligence in weather and climate prediction : Learning atmospheric dynamics

   Author : Sebastian Scher; Gabriele Messori; Roberto Buizza; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : Weather and climate prediction is dominated by high dimensionality, interactions on many different spatial and temporal scales and chaotic dynamics. This makes many problems in the field quite complex ones, and also state-of-the-art numerical models are - despite their immense computational costs - not sufficient for many applications. READ MORE

7. 5. Tracing pathways in the ocean circulation : A temperature and salinity perspective

   Author : Sara Berglund; Kristofer Döös; Jonas Nycander; Göran Broström; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lagrangian trajectories; Climate modelling; Atlantic Ocean; Southern Ocean; Ocean circulation; heat; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

   Abstract : The ocean circulation plays an essential role in our climate system. It redistributes heat, salt, carbon and other tracers across the globe, making the climate of Earth more moderate. This thesis targets density differences that are driving the ocean circulation. These differences are caused by changes in temperature and salinity. READ MORE
