Sensitivities of zonal mean atmospheric circulation to SST warming in an aqua-planet model

Sensitivities of zonal mean atmospheric circulation to SST warming in an aqua-planet model

Sensitivities of tropospheric winds and stratospheric Brewer-Dobson Circulation (BDC) to SST warming are explored in an aqua-planet atmospheric general circulation model. The tropospheric zonal wind change is quite sensitive to the location and sign of the gradient of SST perturbations with respect...
