Because of their speed, their large magnetic field strength, and their often long - lived and strong southward magnetic field component, many fast CMEs are highly geoeffective; that is, energy is transferred effectively between the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere through the process of magnetic...

«This process pushes the storm northward (or southward in the southern hemisphere), and this effect will also be stronger in a warmer climate.»
Apparently the reason for the disappearance was an anomalous weather system which generated a strong jet of surface winds blowing straight over the pole southward toward the Atlantic ocean, a «Polar Express».
A synthesis of six such experiments with different models shows consistent hemispheric - wide atmospheric warming, strongest in the mid-to-high-latitude lower troposphere; an intensification of the wintertime Aleutian Low and, in most cases, the Siberian High; a weakening of the Icelandic Low; and a reduction in strength and southward shift of the mid-latitude westerly winds in winter.
The coldest weather of the month occurred on the 19th and 20th, as an unusually strong Arctic high pushed southward across the region.
In particular, a stronger southern center - of - action of the NAO (i.e., a stronger high pressure anomaly) and a northward shift of the SLP dipole nodal line is associated with greater precipitation deficits over southern and central Europe; and a southward shift of the nodal line accompanied by stronger anomalous westerly flow across northern Europe and Russia favors enhanced precipitation and warming in these regions (Fig. 4).
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.
This strengthening and southward shift of the subtropical jet during El Niño occurs primarily because strong warming of an already warm region (the eastern tropical Pacific) tends to enhance the north - south temperature differential across the Pacific basin.
All of these, and recent transient simulations (Held et al., 2005; Paeth and Feichter, 2006), found a substantial cooling that was strongest in the NH, with a consequent southward shift of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and the associated tropical rainfall belt.
Seasonal forecast models, including the CFS, are depicting strong and persistent cyclonic anomalies and a southward - shifted storm track over the northeastern Pacific this winter.
Even if the statistical relationship is valid, EJN's physical interpretation is faulty: a westward and southward shift of the Bermuda High causes an increased meridional sea level pressure gradient and stronger tradewinds over the main development region, not a relaxation of the tradewinds.
