• Phase Speed Spectra and the Latitude of Surface Westerlies: Interannual Variability and Global Warming Trend (2008, background): “This zonal wind variability is generally attributed to the internal variability of the atmosphere that arises from eddy–mean flow interactions (e.g., Hartmann and Lo 1998; Limpasuvan and Hartmann 2000; Lorenz and Hartmann 2001, 2003).”
• Impact of stratospheric ozone on Southern Hemisphere circulation change: A multimodel assessment (2010, methodology): “Figures 4a – 4c show DJF [u] trends for time period of 2001 – 2050 in three sets of models: the CCMVal ‐ 2, CCMVal ‐ 1 and AR4 models with prescribing O 3 recovery.”
• On the importance of midlatitude oceanic frontal zones for the mean state and dominant variability in the tropospheric circulation (2008, background): “The SST fronts also help maintain the intensity and structure of the eddy-driven annular mode throughout the year as actually observed in the SH. Its year-round robustness may be essential for the troposphere-stratosphere linkage of circulation anomalies from winter to early summer, including the po”
• Simulation of Present-Day and Twenty-First-Century Energy Budgets of the Southern Oceans (2010, background): “Observations from 1970 to 2000 reveal increases in westerly winds south of 508S associated with the southern annular mode (Gillett and Thompson 2003; Trenberth et al. 2007; Cai and Cowan 2007) accompanied by increases in ocean heat content (Gille 2008).”
• Stratospheric Communication of El Niño Teleconnections to European Winter (2009, background): “In recent years there has been growing evidence advocating for a significant two-way dynamical coupling between the stratosphere and troposphere (Shaw and Shepherd 2008), on time scales ranging from the seasonal to climatic (Baldwin and Dunkerton 2001; Gillett and Thompson 2003).”
• The Role of Mesoscale Eddies in the Rectification of the Southern Ocean Response to Climate Change (2010, background): “We note that there is no buoyancy forcing in the eddy-saturation theory of Straub (1993) and that local and remote buoyancy forcings play a role in setting the stratification and transport of the ACC (Gnanadesikan and Hallberg 2000).”
• Changes in the ocean transport through Drake Passage during the 1980s and 1990s, forced by changes in the Southern Annular Mode (2004, background): “We are able, however, to investigate the effects of the long-term changes in the seasonality of the SAM, which combine to produce the observed trend [Gillett and Thompson, 2003; Thompson and Solomon, 2002].”
• The Hadley Circulation in Reanalyses: Climatology, Variability, and Change (2013, background): “Several studies (e.g., Thompson and Solomon 2002; Gillett and Thompson 2003; Arblaster and Meehl 2006) have attributed trends in SAM to the formation of the Antarctic ozone hole during austral spring (SON).”
