The jet stream and climate change
Strong rivers of westerly winds, known as jet streams, are driven primarily by temperature
differences between low and high latitudes as well as the rotation of the Earth. The jet …

Dynamical systems theory sheds new light on compound climate extremes in Europe and Eastern North America
We propose a novel approach to the study of compound extremes, grounded in dynamical
systems theory. Specifically, we present the co‐recurrence ratio (α), which elucidates the …
