Upward Shift of the Atmospheric General Circulation under Global Warming: Theory and Simulations

Many features of the general circulation of the atmosphere shift upward in response to warming in simulations of climate change with both general circulation models (GCMs) and cloud-system-resolving models. The importance of the upward shift is well known, but its physical basis and the extent to wh...
