Warm conveyor belts in present-day and future climate simulations – Part 1: Climatology and impacts
<p>This study investigates how warm conveyor belts (WCBs) will change in a future climate. WCBs are strongly ascending airstreams in extratropical cyclones that are responsible for most of their precipitation. In conjunction with the cloud formation, latent heat is released, which has an impac...
