Sentences with phrase «induces changes in the atmospheric circulation»

This slower warming of the tropical Pacific induces changes in the atmospheric circulation that can be seen in the reanalyses, but two different reanalysis products that incorporate different amounts of satellite data in different ways produce conflicting estimates of the change in circulation.

Anomalies in the volcanic - aerosol induced global radiative heating distribution can force significant changes in atmospheric circulation, for example, perturbing the equator - to - pole heating gradient (Stenchikov et al., 2002; Ramaswamy et al., 2006a; see Section 9.2) and forcing a positive phase of the Arctic Oscillation that in turn causes a counterintuitive boreal winter warming at middle and high latitudes over Eurasia and North America (Perlwitz and Graf, 2001; Stenchikov et al., 2002, 2004, 2006; Shindell et al., 2003b, 2004; Perlwitz and Harnik, 2003; Rind et al., 2005; Miller et al., 2006).
