Rossby Wave Packets on the Midlatitude Waveguide—A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the literature on upper-tropospheric transient wave packets along the midlatitude jet stream is presented, with an emphasis on developments during the last 15 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment

TL;DR: The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (NAWDEX) explored the impact of diabatic processes on disturbances of the jet stream and their influence on downstream high-impact weather through the deployment of four research aircraft, each with a sophisticated set of remote-sensing and in situ instruments, and coordinated with a suite of ground-based measurements as discussed by the authors.

Quantification of the Downstream Impact of Extratropical Transition for Typhoon Jangmi and Other Case Studies

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of extratropical transition on the midlatitude flow is quantified based on potential vorticity inversion, which reveals the diabatically enhanced net transport of low-PV air to the tropopause as the key physical process determining the direct impact of ET.

On the Co-Occurrence of Warm Conveyor Belt Outflows and PV Streamers*

TL;DR: In this paper, the co-occurrence of warm conveyor belts (WCBs), strongly ascending moist airstreams in extratropical cyclones, and stratospheric potential vorticity (PV) streamers, indicators for breaking Rossby waves on the tropopause, was investigated for a 21-yr period in the Northern Hemisphere using Interim European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis (ERA-Interim) data.

The Resonant Interaction of a Tropical Cyclone and a Tropopause Front in a Barotropic Model. Part I: Zonally Oriented Front

TL;DR: In this article, the interaction between a tropical cyclone and a zonally aligned tropopause front is investigated in an idealized framework, in which the front is represented by a vorticity step, giving a jetlike velocity profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure and evolution of lower stratospheric frontal zones. Part II: The influence of tropospheric ascent on lower stratospheric frontal development

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined four recent cases of lower stratospheric frontogenesis in southwesterly flow to elucidate the interaction between lower stratosphere dynamical processes and tropospheric ascent that characterizes such developments.

Favorable versus unfavorable synoptic backgrounds for indirect precipitation events ahead of tropical cyclones approaching the Korean Peninsula: A comparison of two cases

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify favorable synoptic backgrounds for indirect precipitation events over the Korean Peninsula that occur well in advance of tropical cyclone (TC) landfall and compare two TCs, i.e., Rammasun (2002) and Maemi (2003) that made landfall and produced heavy rainfall over the Peninsula are compared.
