Sentences with phrase «cyclonic circulation»

The cyclonic circulation of the GoM and the anticyclonic flow around Georges Bank adds to the residence time of water before it arrives south of Cape Cod (Figure 4).

Anomalous cyclonic atmospheric circulation throughout the Arctic Basin during June has continued to precondition sea ice, making the ice cover vulnerable to a precipitous drop in sea ice extent; however the persistence of the June cyclonic circulation (and cloudiness associated with the surface lows) has induced divergence within the sea ice cover, and has delayed the onset of the rapid sea ice extent decline typically observed in June.

An enhanced AMOC leads to a stronger cyclonic circulation north of the Gulf Stream and a southward shift of the Gulf Stream path, which results in shallower isopycnals (surfaces of constant density in ocean) in the Gulf Stream front.

But the icepack already shows effects of the gathering low - pressure system cyclonic circulation in today's Bremen map.

To develop into a hurricane, significant cyclonic circulation must occur around the disturbances.

For example, the northern East Asian summer monsoon (NEASM) is, for the years of highest SST anomalies in the tropical eastern Pacific (TEP), affected by the Pacific - East Asian (PEA) teleconnection pattern, which consists of a wave creating an anomalously strong western North Pacific (WNP) anticyclonic circulation and anomalously strong cyclonic circulation in the NEASM region, creating more monsoon rainfall.

When the cyclonic circulation of the QBW mode is located west of Taiwan, followed by an anticyclonic circulation to the east, Taiwan's diurnal convection activity tends to intensify and persists for about 4 - 7 days.

A cyclonic circulation swirled over Boulder, Colo., in September 2013 and drew a river of moisture from the Pacific Ocean off Mexico's coast.

The inward spiraling cyclonic circulation associated with hurricanes (also known as typhoons and tropical cyclones) extracts latent heat very efficiently.

Not exact matches

A tropical cyclone is the generic term for a non-frontal synoptic scale low - pressure system over tropical or sub-tropical waters with organized convection (i.e. thunderstorm activity) and definite cyclonic surface wind circulation (Holland 1993).

Hank states,» That's a known reversing pattern — positive ACRI phase characterized by cyclonic ocean circulation and a warmer and wetter climate.»

This study proposes a mechanism sustaining the enhanced westerly winds by a cyclonic atmospheric circulation in the Barents Sea region created by a strong surface heat flux over the ice - free areas.

During the ice - free period in August and September 2007, the prevailing cyclonic atmospheric circulation deflected the freshwater plume of the River Lena to the east, which increased the salinity on the mid-shelf north of the Lena Delta.

Monsoon depressions are cyclonic atmospheric vortices with outer radii near 1000 km that form within the larger - scale monsoon circulations of India and other regions.

Lukovich and Barber; 4.6 million square kilometers; Heuristic The absence of a distinctive transition in spring of 2009, between cyclonic and anti-cyclonic circulation in the stratosphere (characteristic of years with record lows in sea ice extent), suggests that dynamical contributions will contribute to but not accelerate the decline in sea ice extent in September 2009.

Note also that this atmospheric circulation doesn't involve cyclonic air movement; rather, the air movement (trade winds) from high to low pressure is an undeviating straight line flow.

«The freshwater changes were due to a cyclonic (anticlockwise) shift in the ocean pathway of Eurasian runoff forced by strengthening of the west - to - east Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation characterized by an increased Arctic Oscillation9 index.
