recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geophysical Research Letters"

DOI: 10.1002/2016gl071277

Abstract: Winter 2013/14 was the stormiest on record for the UK and was characterized by recurrent clustering of extratropical cyclones. This clustering was associated with a strong, straight and persistent North Atlantic jet and was also… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2016jd025222

Abstract: This study presents the first global estimates of the relative contributions of different weather systems, i.e. tropical cyclone, center and front of extratropical cyclone, and others, to mean and extreme precipitation. An objective method of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11069-024-06552-x

Abstract: Subtropical coastlines are impacted by both tropical and extratropical cyclones. While both may lead to substantial damage to coastal communities, it is difficult to determine the contribution of tropical cyclones to coastal flooding relative to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wace.2021.100342

Abstract: Abstract Extratropical cyclones and their associated extreme precipitation and winds can have a severe impact on society and the co-occurrence between the two extremes is important when assessing risk. In this study the extremal dependency… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2024ef005289

Abstract: Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) significantly impact mid‐latitude weather patterns and are crucial for understanding the societal implications of regional climate variability, climate change, and associated extreme weather. In this study, we examine the projected future changes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2024gl112747

Abstract: The Arctic Oscillation (AO) is the most significant mode of sea level pressure (SLP) anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere, exhibiting significant multiple‐timescale variability from synoptic to decadal. Using NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis data from… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Geophysical Research Letters"

DOI: 10.1029/2025gl114654

Abstract: Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) are elongated, narrow corridors of concentrated moisture in the atmosphere, transporting significant amounts of water vapor outside the tropics and causing heavy precipitation. ARs are often accompanied with explosive extratropical cyclones (EECs)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/21664250.2023.2301181

Abstract: ABSTRACT Similar in strength to hurricanes, Extratropical Cyclones (ECs) are responsible for innavigable sea states, coastal inundation and erosion, and subsequent destruction to coastal infrastructure. Across modern operational wave models, there exists a known systematic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/bams-d-16-0261.1

Abstract: AbstractFor nearly a century, the study of atmospheric dynamics in the midlatitudes has presented dichotomic perspectives on one of its focal points: the birth and life cycle of cyclones. In particular, the role of fronts… read more here.
