Storm track shifts under climate change: toward a mechanistic understanding using baroclinic mean available potential energy

Zonal-mean storm track shifts in response to perturbations in climate occur even in ide- alized simulations of dry atmospheres with axisymmetric forcing. Nonetheless, a generally accepted theory of the mechanisms controlling the storm track shifts is still lacking. Here mean available potential e...
