A wavelet-based approach to detect climate change on the coherent and turbulent component of the atmospheric circulation

The modifications of atmospheric circulation induced by anthropogenic effects are difficult to capture because wind fields feature a complex spectrum where the signal of large-scale coherent structures (planetary, baroclinic waves and other long-term oscillations) is mixed up with turbulence. Our pu...
