De Blasio got himself noticed by hitting Bloomberg the hardest and giving voice to the millions of struggling New Yorkers who looked at the post-9 / 11 gilded - age excess all around them — the stratospheric rents and impossibly high cost of living, the bank branches and chain stores squeezing out local mom - and - pops, the very skyline remade by gleaming new high - rises catering to hedge - funders and Chinese and Russian billionaires — and worried it could permanently transform the greatest city in the world into an open - air luxury mall for the global super-rich.
The stratospheric sudden warming events analyzed in the paper are driven by air waves traveling upward from the troposphere — «so one could argue whether or not the troposphere is the primary cause of events,» Reichler says.
Cold air at the top of ascending columns is forced to one side by warmer air continuing to flow up from beneath but it is blocked by the warmer stratospheric air above and so flows laterally and downward to the top of descending columns, following the undulating slope of the tropopause.
