Meteorology of the Southern Hemisphere: observational and modeling perspectives
Meteorology of the Southern Hemisphere: observational and modeling perspectives
Session ID#: 74634
Session Description:
The meteorology of the Southern Hemisphere is diverse, yet understanding many of its key facets remains a critical challenge. Therefore, the focus of this session is to explore a range of themes, from extreme events to climate oscillations to teleconnections, that cut across the meso-, synoptic-, and planetary spatial scales and daily, weekly, sub-seasonal, seasonal, interannual and decadal time scales. We are interested in papers that present the latest in research on a variety of topics, including but not limited to: (1) Connections between the major modes of atmospheric variability and key aspects of the Southern Hemisphere climate system; (2) Variability of Southern Hemisphere weather, ocean, and climate on daily to decadal time scales; and (3) Extreme events in the Southern Hemisphere and their connection to local and large scale patterns. Abstracts of papers from modeling, observational, and theoretical studies across atmosphere, ocean, and cryosphere, are all welcome.
