Seasonal versus permanent thermocline warming by tropical cyclones
2010年2月10日 · Tropical cyclones occur primarily during summer and early fall, when the ocean mixed layer is generally shallow. As the mixed layer deepens in the following winter, any warm anomaly deposited within the seasonal thermocline will be reabsorbed by the mixed layer and lost to the atmosphere.
Tropical cyclones (also known as hurricanes and typhoons) are now believed to be an important component of the Earth’s climate system1-3. In particular, by vigorously mixing the upper ocean, they can affect the ocean heat uptake, poleward heat transport, and hence global temperatures.

1997年1月1日 · (5) A permanent cyclone is found in all the surveys near the tip of the Italian boot. This novel analysis of the LIW pathways shows that: ( 1 ) The major source of intermediate LIW during the period 1986-1987 was actually in the Levantine Sea.
ABSTRACT: Explaining the relationship between atmospheric circulation patterns and precipita-tion over a given area is one of the key problems in predicting climate variables for monthly and seasonal leadtime.
Wind: Global Systems
Blocking system: a cutoff cyclone or anticyclone that blocks the usual west-to-east progression of weather systems. The pool of cold air rotating counter-clockwise is a blocking cyclone, while the pool of warm air rotating clockwise is a blocking anticyclone, also referred to a omega block.
Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air, and the means (together with the smaller ocean circulation) by which thermal energy is distributed on the surface of the Earth. GAC is time averaging sate of the atmosphere with all geographical details. GAC is the collection of all quantities statistical properties the circulation.

2022年5月16日 · We believe this asymmetry may be caused by the contributions of two permanent cyclone-anticyclone pairs to the background flow, which determines where the atmospheric waves driving the oscillation are absorbed. We named this analogue of the QBO a longitudinally asymmetric stratospheric oscillation (LASO).
