Congratulations Kai, for leading this effort connecting how the stratosphere and #QBO influences #AtmosphericRivers.
A great step in understanding sources of #predictability for these weather features!
🙌Our new paper is out! We find significant stratospheric Quasibiennial Oscillation influences on the global atmospheric river activities around the year. Wanna see more details and find out why? Go check our paper here: dx.doi.org/10.1029/2024JD042….
Anyone going to @EuroGeosciences General Assembly this year? There will be a dedicated session for #AtmosphericRivers!
Thanks for the spotlight @theAGU !
🌍 Meet Christine Shields (@catswx), a Project Scientist at @UCAR_News, working at the intersection of climate and weather in Boulder, CO. She’s one of AGU’s community members at #COP29! #AGUatCOP

Interested in #AtmosphericRivers and the upper ocean?
Check out our blog post and research article. Super fun collaborative project thanks Hui Li, Fred Castruccio, Dan Fu, @kylemnardiwx, Xue Liu, @weatherczar

We find that using an eddy-resolving ocean coupled to a high resolution atmosphere, #atmosphericrivers significantly influence upper ocean processes, and the nature of these #impacts change as the #climate warms.

Warren was such a giant in the field, not only as a scientist but as a human being. We will be sorely missed.
Sad word is spreading from Boulder that the pioneering NCAR climate scientist and Medal of Science laureate Warren Washington has passed from this Earth he studied and cherished with such vigor for so long. More soon but listen to @DrShepherd2013 below for just a little of Dr Washington’s legacy. 1/
Looking forward to giving this lecture at the Longmont Museum!
Happening Thursday! If you're in #Colorado, come out to the Longmont Museum for an encore presentation of the Explorer Series lecture about atmospheric rivers with Christine Shields. It's sure to make a splash! 💦

Nice study looking at the intersection of #AtmosphericRivers with the stratosphere!
Exciting day! Check out my paper on the transport of ozone from the stratosphere to the troposphere in dry intrusion events associated with atmospheric rivers, published in JGR Atmospheres and up on arxiv! arxiv.org/abs/2402.10205 doi.org/10.1029/2023JD039949
Impressive rain AND wind coming out of the #AtmosphericRivers impacting California!
Here's a look at the top ten maximum wind gusts from across the area on Sunday. Wind headlines are still in effect until 8AM Monday.
ALT Here's a look at the top ten maximum wind gusts from across the area on Sunday. Wind headlines are still in effect until 8AM Monday. An Atmospheric River brought gusty winds to the Bay Area and Central Coast. Strongest winds were in the Coastal Mountains. Notable speeds: Location, County, Max Wind Gust (mph) Pablo Point, Marin, 102 Road to Ranches, Marin, 99 Loma Prieta, Santa Clara, 98 Knpt Towers, Santa Clara, 97 Pine Mountain Fire Rd, Marin, 96 Soda Springs Rd, Santa Clara, 96 Gunsight Fire Rd, Marin, 96 Cobb Ridge West, Marin, 95 Point Reyes, Marin, 89 Lucas Valley, Marin, 89
