The Surface-Pressure Signature of Atmospheric Tides in Modern Climate Models by Covey, Curt, Dai, Aiguo, Marsh, Daniel R., Lindzen, Richard Siegmund

“…This work examines near-surface-pressure tides in climate models that contributed to the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC); it compares them with tides both from observations and from the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM), which extends from the earth’s surface to the thermosphere. …”

Atlantic tropical cyclones downscaled from climate reanalyses show increasing activity over past 150 years by Emanuel, Kerry

“…Here we use a tropical cyclone downscaling model driven by three global climate analyses that are based mostly on sea surface temperature and surface pressure data. The results support earlier statistically-based inferences that storms were undercounted in the 19<jats:sup>th</jats:sup> century, but in contrast to earlier work, show increasing tropical cyclone activity through the period, interrupted by a prominent hurricane drought in the 1970s and 80 s that we attribute to anthropogenic aerosols. …”

Atmospheric Tides in the Latest Generation of Climate Models by Covey, Curt, Dai, Aiguo, Marsh, Daniel R., Lindzen, Richard Siegmund

“…Both the present study and the earlier one examine the surface pressure signature of the tides, but the new database removes a shortcoming of the earlier study in which model simulations were not strictly comparable to observations. …”

Evidence for Enhanced Eddy Mixing at Middepth in the Southern Ocean by Smith, K. Shafer, Marshall, John C

“…Satellite altimetric observations of the ocean reveal surface pressure patterns in the core of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) that propagate downstream (eastward) but slower than the mean surface current by about 25%. …”

TOWARD THE MINIMUM INNER EDGE DISTANCE OF THE HABITABLE ZONE by Zsom, Andras, Seager, Sara, de Wit, Julien, Stamenkovic, Vlada

“…We consider a wide range of atmospheric and planetary parameters such as the mixing ratios of greenhouse gases (water vapor and CO[subscript 2]), surface albedo, pressure, and gravity. Intermediate surface pressure (~1-10 bars) is necessary to limit water loss and to simultaneously sustain an active water cycle. …”

Tropical Cyclone Activity Downscaled from NOAA-CIRES Reanalysis, 1908-1958 by Emanuel, Kerry Andrew

“…This reanalysis assimilates only sea surface temperature, sea ice, and surface pressure observations, which are relatively homogeneous over the period. …”

On the Emergent Spectra of Hot Protoplanet Collision Afterglows by Miller-Ricci, Eliza, Meyer, Michael R., Seager, Sara, Elkins Tanton, Linda T.

“…We present preliminary calculations assuming a range of protoplanet masses (1-10 M[subscript ⊕]), surface pressures (1-1000 bar), and atmospheric compositions, for molten planets with surface temperatures ranging from 1000 to 1800 K, in order to explore the diversity of emergent spectra that are detectable. …”
