A model of coronal streamers with underlying flux ropes
We present global two-dimensional axisymmetric isothermal MHD simulations of the dynamic evolution of a coronal helmet streamer, driven at the lower boundary by the emergence of...- publication PDF

Storm track response to ocean fronts in a global high-resolution climate model
Synoptic atmospheric eddies are affected by lower tropospheric air-temperature gradients and by turbulent heat fluxes from the surface. In this study we examine how ocean fronts...- publication PDF

An efficient approach for estimating streamflow forecast skill elasticity
Seasonal streamflow prediction skill can derive from catchment initial hydrological conditions (IHCs) and from the future seasonal climate forecasts (SCFs) used to produce the...- publication PDF

The stability of an evolving Atlantic meridional overturning circulation
In this study, we propose a generalized stability indicator, L, for a slowly evolving and quasi-steady Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), which represents a...- publication PDF
