Diversity of cross-pacific atmospheric river main routes

M Pan, M Lu, U Lall - Communications Earth & Environment, 2024 - nature.com
Atmospheric rivers distribute heterogeneously over the North Pacific. Here, we identify five

[HTML][HTML] The inherent uncertainty of precipitation variability, trends, and extremes due to internal variability, with implications for Western US water resources

KA McKinnon, C Deser - Journal of Climate, 2021 - journals.ametsoc.org
The approximately century-long instrumental record of precipitation over land reflects a

Influences of atmospheric rivers on North Pacific winter precipitation: Climatology and dependence on ENSO condition

Y Xiong, X Ren - Journal of Climate, 2021 - journals.ametsoc.org
The atmospheric river (AR) is a unique mover of moisture from the low latitudes to mid-and
high latitudes and a potential cause for regional flooding. This study explores the ARs' …
