Replicating the Hadley cell edge and subtropical jet latitude disconnect in idealized atmospheric models

ME Menzel, DW Waugh, Z Wu… - Weather and Climate …, 2024 - wcd.copernicus.org
Recent work has shown that variability in the subtropical jet's (STJ) latitude, ϕ STJ, is not
coupled to that of the Hadley cell (HC) edge, ϕ HC, but the robustness of this disconnect has …

[HTML][HTML] On the pattern of interannual polar vortex–ozone co-variability during northern hemispheric winter

F Harzer, H Garny, F Ploeger, H Bönisch… - Atmospheric …, 2023 - acp.copernicus.org
Stratospheric ozone is important for both stratospheric and surface climate. In the lower
