Tropical Pacific Influence on the Source and Transport of Marine Aerosols to West Antarctica

Tropical Pacific Influence on the Source and Transport of Marine Aerosols to West Antarctica

The climate of West Antarctica is strongly influenced by remote forcing from the tropical Pacific. For example, recent surface warming over West Antarctica reflects atmospheric circulation changes over the Amundsen Sea, driven by an atmospheric Rossby wave response to tropical sea surface temperatur...
