Prediction of Northern Hemisphere regional surface temperatures using stratospheric ozone information by Stone, Kane Adam, Solomon, Susan, Kinnison, Douglas E., Baggett, Cory F., Barnes, Elizabeth A.

“…Correlations between springtime stratospheric ozone extremes and subsequent surface temperatures have been previously reported for both models and observations at particular locations in the Northern Hemisphere. Here we quantify for the first time the potential use of ozone information for Northern Hemisphere seasonal forecasts, using observations and a nine-member chemistry climate model ensemble. …”

On the surface impact of Arctic stratospheric ozone extremes by Calvo, N., Polvani, L. M., Solomon, Susan

“…Analyzing an ensemble of historical integrations with all known natural and anthropogenic forcings specified over the period 1955–2005, we find that extremely low stratospheric ozone changes are able to produce large and robust anomalies in tropospheric wind, temperature and precipitation in April and May over large portions of the Northern Hemisphere (most notably over the North Atlantic and Eurasia). …”

Observed changes in Brewer–Dobson circulation for 1980–2018 by Solomon, Susan

“…This overall acceleration was driven by both Northern Hemisphere (40%) and SH (60%) cells. Significant SH radiative warming is also identified in September for 2000–2018 after excluding the year 2002 when a very rare SH stratospheric sudden warming occurred, supporting the view that healing of the Antarctic ozone layer has now begun to occur during the month of September. ©2019…”

Stratospheric Ozone in the Last Glacial Maximum by Wang, Mingcheng, Fu, Qiang, Solomon, Susan, White, Rachel H, Alexander, Becky

“…Surface ultraviolet radiation in the LGM versus PI is increased over the Northern Hemisphere middle and high latitudes, especially over the ice caps, and over the Southern Hemisphere near 60°S.…”

Robust Wind and Precipitation Responses to the Mount Pinatubo Eruption, as Simulated in the CMIP5 Models by Barnes, Elizabeth A., Solomon, Susan, Polvani, Lorenzo M.

“…The simulated Southern Hemisphere circulation response projects strongly onto the positive phase of the southern annular mode (SAM), while the Northern Hemisphere exhibits robust North Atlantic and North Pacific responses that differ significantly from that of the typical northern annular mode (NAM) pattern. …”

Monsoon circulations and tropical heterogeneous chlorine chemistry in the stratosphere by Kinnison, Doug, Garcia, Rolando R., Neely, Ryan R., Schmidt, Anja, Barnes, John E., Vernier, Jean-Paul, Höpfner, Michael, Solomon, Susan, Bandoro, Justin, Mills, Michael J, Wilka, Catherine Anne

“…The calculations indicate that the spatial and seasonal distributions of chlorine monoxide and chlorine nitrate near the monsoon regions of the northern hemisphere tropical and subtropical lowermost stratosphere could provide indicators of heterogeneous chlorine processing. …”

On the Southern Hemisphere Stratospheric Response to ENSO and Its Impacts on Tropospheric Circulation by Stone, Kane A, Solomon, Susan, Thompson, David WJ, Kinnison, Douglas E, Fyfe, John C

“…Following discovery of a stratospheric pathway of ENSO to the Northern Hemisphere surface, here we aim to investigate if there is a substantial Southern Hemisphere (SH) stratospheric pathway in relation to austral winter ENSO events. …”

Changes in Stratospheric Temperatures and Their Implications for Changes in the Brewer–Dobson Circulation, 1979–2005 by Young, Paul J., Rosenlof, Karen H., Solomon, Susan, Sherwood, Steven C., Fu, Qiang, Lamarque, Jean-François

“…Linear trends in an empirically derived “BDC index” (extratropical minus tropical temperatures), over 1979–2005, were found to be consistent with a significant strengthening of the Northern Hemisphere (NH) branch of the BDC during December throughout the depth of the stratosphere. …”

Radiative Effects of Stratospheric Seasonal Cycles in the Tropical Upper Troposphere and Lower Stratosphere by Gilford, Daniel Michael, Solomon, Susan

“…Ozone's radiative effects are not spatially homogenous: for example, the Northern Hemisphere tropics have a seasonal cycle of radiative temperature adjustments with an amplitude 0.8 K larger than the Southern Hemisphere tropics. …”
