in sediment erosion and transport — «We have climate
model simulations of the effect of warming on rainfall during the PETM event, and they

in more rapid, extreme events — larger and bigger storms.»

Mike's work, like that of previous award winners, is diverse, and includes pioneering and highly cited work
in time series analysis (an elegant use of Thomson's multitaper spectral analysis approach to detect spatiotemporal oscillations
in the climate record and methods for smoothing temporal data), decadal climate variability (the term «Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation» or «AMO» was coined by Mike
in an interview with Science's Richard Kerr about a paper he had published with Tom Delworth of GFDL
showing evidence
in both climate
model simulations and observational data for a 50 - 70 year oscillation
in the climate system; significantly Mike also published work with Kerry Emanuel
in 2006
showing that the AMO concept has been overstated as regards its role
in 20th century tropical Atlantic SST changes, a finding recently reaffirmed by a study published
in Nature),

model versions, continued use of a flawed experimental design etc.).

It is not that the polar regions are amplifying the warming «going on» at lower latitudes, it is that any warming going on AT THE POLES is amplified through inherent positive feedback processes AT THE POLES, and specifically this is primarily the ice - albedo positive feedback process whereby more open water leads to more warming leads to more open water, etc. *** «Climate

in global temperature.»
