Sentences with phrase «low geopotential»

This positive trend in Greenland summer blocking is likely responsible for downstream troughing and relatively normal to cool temperatures across Northwestern Europe including the UK seen in Figure i. Currently Greenland is dominated by deep troughing / relatively low geopotential heights.

Not exact matches

* Extremely high geopotential heights (a vertically aggregated measure of atmospheric temperature) over the northeastern Pacific Ocean are historically linked to very low precipitation in California.

The projection of 500mb geopotential height (see Figure 10) for the remainder of July continues the June - to - early July SLP pattern (see Figure 9) with support for low SLP over the Pacific Arctic.

The model's response agrees with observations, including the long record of geopotential height variations (a function of temperature throughout the lower atmosphere), implying that these observed 10 - 12 year oscillations are likely driven, at least partially, by solar variability.
