Changes in Cold Surge Occurrence over East Asia in the Future: Role of Thermal Structure

Changes in Cold Surge Occurrence over East Asia in the Future: Role of Thermal Structure

The occurrence of wintertime cold surges (CSs) over East Asia is largely controlled by the surface air temperature (SAT) distribution at high latitudes and thermal advection in the lower troposphere. The thermodynamic background state over northeastern Asia is associated with the strength of the Eas...
