«We found a really strong relationship

The link
between human activity and unusual
jet stream patterns associated with extreme weather events is getting stronger, says Olive Heffernan
The link
between human activity and unusual
jet stream patterns associated with extreme weather events is getting stronger
The temperature differential
between the cold of the far North and the warmer air of the temperate zones to the south fuel the
jet stream, which steers weather
patterns in the Northern Hemisphere.
It is almost certain that the strange extreme weather
patterns now observed throughout the northern hemisphere are related to this arctic warming and the consequent weakening of the
jet streams that lie
between the arctic and the more temperate northern lands.
Evidence for a wavier
jet stream in response to rapid Arctic warming New metrics and evidence are presented that support a linkage
between rapid Arctic warming, relative to Northern hemisphere mid-latitudes, and more frequent high - amplitude (wavy)
jet -
stream configurations that favor persistent weather
patterns.
For example, the Arctic is warming more rapidly than the globe as a whole and so the temperature difference
between the pole and mid-latitudes is weakening, with a likely influence on the
jet stream and the weather
patterns that come with it.
