Phase Speed Spectra and the Latitude of Surface Westerlies: Interannual Variability and Global Warming Trend (2008, background): “These trends are seen in model simulations of present climate and projections for future climate change and have been attributed to greenhouse gas increases and stratospheric ozone depletion (e.g., Fyfe et al. 1999; Kushner et al. 2001; Gillett and Thompson 2003).”
Response of the large‐scale structure of the atmosphere to global warming (2015, background): “The above scaling follows from (Held, 2000) with further discussion and numerical examination by Walker and Schneider (2006) and Frierson et al. (2007). Korty and Schneider (2008) avoid the need for a specific model of baroclinic instability by suggesting that the Hadley Cell terminate when meridion”
Expansion of the Hadley Cell under Global Warming: Winter versus Summer (2012, unknown): “If fi 5 0 and Ro 5 1, then we retain the original Held (2000) scaling:f} (DyH/V (2)a2)} (NH/Va), whereN is the vertically averaged Brunt–Väisälä frequency, as in Lu et al. (2007).”
The Hadley Circulation in Reanalyses: Climatology, Variability, and Change (2013, background): “Various theoretical studies of the HC (e.g., Walker and Schneider 2006; Schneider 2006; Frierson et al. 2007; Lu et al. 2009) suggest that the width scales with a variety of parameters, including the broad-scale static stability, the height of the tropopause (tropical or extratropical), and/or the…”
Impact of stratospheric ozone on Southern Hemisphere circulation change: A multimodel assessment (2010, background): “Son et al. [2009a] suggested that the SH summer Hadley cell might be influenced by stratospheric O 3 change, but this link has not been investigated as carefully as its relationship to global warming [e.g., Frierson et al. , 2007; Lu et al. , 2008].”
