Climate response to large, high-latitude and low-latitude volcanic eruptions...
Explosive volcanism is known to be a leading natural cause of climate change. The second half of the 13th century was likely the most volcanically perturbed half-century of the...- publication PDF

Description and derived climatologies of automated in situ...
The statistical properties of turbulence at upper levels in the atmosphere [upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS)] are still not well known, partly because of the lack...- publication PDF

Spatial patterns and intensity of the surface storm tracks in CMIP5 models
To improve the understanding of storm tracks and western boundary current (WBC) interactions, surface storm tracks in 12 CMIP5 models are examined against ERA-Interim. All...- publication PDF

The Brewer-Dobson circulation in CMIP6
The Brewer-Dobson circulation (BDC) is a key feature of the stratosphere that models need to accurately represent in order to simulate surface climate variability and change...- publication PDF

Stratospheric ozone depletion: An unlikely driver of the regional trends in...
It has been suggested that recent regional trends in Antarctic sea ice might have been caused by the formation of the ozone hole in the late twentieth century. Here we explore...- publication PDF

A new approach to homogenize daily radiosonde humidity data
Radiosonde humidity records represent the only in situ observations of tropospheric water vapor content with multidecadal length and quasi-global coverage. However, their use...- publication PDF
