Warming amplification over the Arctic Pole (AP hereafter) and Third Pole (Tibetan Plateau,
TP hereafter) can trigger a series of climate responses and have global consequences …

The areal extent, concentration and thickness of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean and adjacent
seas have strongly decreased during the recent decades, but cold, snow-rich winters have …

The Arctic is rapidly warming and experiencing tremendous changes in sea ice, ocean and
terrestrial regions. Lack of long-term scientific observations makes it difficult to assess …

New metrics and evidence are presented that support a linkage between rapid Arctic
warming, relative to Northern hemisphere mid-latitudes, and more frequent high-amplitude …

Arctic amplification (AA)–the observed enhanced warming in high northern latitudes relative
to the northern hemisphere–is evident in lower‐tropospheric temperatures and in 1000‐to …

The past decade has seen substantial advances in understanding Arctic amplification—that
trends and variability in surface air temperature tend to be larger in the Arctic region than for …

The Arctic region has warmed more than twice as fast as the global average—a
phenomenon known as Arctic amplification. The rapid Arctic warming has contributed to …

Temperate climates are defined by distinct temperature seasonality with large and often
unpredictable weather during any of the four seasons. To thrive in such climates, trees have …

Seasonal climate forecasts occupy an intermediate zone between weather forecasting and
climate projections. They share with the numerical weather prediction the difficulty of …

Recent loss of summer sea ice in the Arctic is directly connected to shifts in northern wind
patterns in the following autumn, which has the potential of altering the heat budget at the …
