Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence linking Arctic amplification to extreme weather in mid‐latitudes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed daily fields of 500-hPa heights from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction Reanalysis over N. America and the N. Atlantic to assess changes in north-south (Rossby) wave characteristics associated with Arctic amplification and the relaxation of poleward thickness gradients.

Recent Arctic amplification and extreme mid-latitude weather
Judah Cohen,James A. Screen,Jason C. Furtado,Mathew Barlow,David Whittleston,Dim Coumou,Jennifer A. Francis,Klaus Dethloff,Dara Entekhabi,James E. Overland,Justin Jones +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the rapid Arctic warming has contributed to dramatic melting of Arctic sea ice and spring snow cover, at a pace greater than that simulated by climate models.
More Evidence Linking Arctic Amplification to Extreme Weather in Mid-Latitudes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed daily fields of 500-hPa heights from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction Reanalysis over N. America and the N. Atlantic to assess changes in north-south (Rossby) wave characteristics associated with Arctic amplification and the relaxation of poleward thickness gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Arctic Amplification Debate
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare observed trajectories to near-future simulations (2010-2029), rather than to the doubled-CO2 or late 21st century conditions that are typically cited.
