Arctic sea ice has been retreating at fast pace over the last decades, with potential impacts
on the weather and climate at mid and high latitudes, as well as the biosphere and society …

Observations show that reduced regional sea-ice cover is coincident with cold mid-latitude
winters on interannual timescales. However, it remains unclear whether these observed …

Wide disagreement among individual modeling studies has contributed to a debate on the
role of recent sea ice loss in the Arctic amplification of global warming and the Siberian …

Alpine regions of the Mediterranean realm are among the most climatically sensitive areas
in the world. Thus, alpine wetlands from the southern Iberian Peninsula, in the westernmost …

Disentangling the contribution of changing Arctic sea ice to midlatitude winter climate
variability remains challenging because of the large internal climate variability in …

Abstract Changes in Arctic sea ice have been proposed to affect midlatitude winter
atmospheric circulation, often based on observed coincident variability. However, causality …

Despite rapid global warming, Eurasia experienced unusual winter cooling from around
1992–2012, whose cause is still debated. By analyzing observations and model simulations …

The present study investigated dominant characteristics of autumn Arctic sea ice
concentration (SIC) interannual variations and impacts of September–October (SO) mean …

Arctic amplification (AA) reduces meridional temperature gradients (dT/dy) over the northern
mid-high latitudes, which may weaken westerly winds. It is suggested that this may lead to …

The results of Russian studies of climate and its changes (published in 2015–2018) are
presented using a review prepared for the National Report on Meteorology and Atmospheric …
