• Implications for atmospheric dynamics derived from global observations of gravity wave momentum flux in stratosphere and mesosphere (2011, background): “The QBO has influence on the stratospheric polar winter jets [Holton and Tan, 1980] and by downward coupling also on the weather in the troposphere [e.g., Baldwin and Dunkerton, 1999, 2001; Marshall and Scaife, 2009].”
• An overview of the Earth system science of solar geoengineering (2016, background): “The QBO also modulates the Arctic Oscillation and the jet stream, and hence can affect surface climate.(69) Ferraro et al.”
• The predictability of the extratropical stratosphere on monthly time‐scales and its impact on the skill of tropospheric forecasts (2015, methodology): “Instead, the stratospheric impact on tropospheric forecast skill is quantified by contrasting hindcasts with different stratospheric conditions.”
• Assessing and understanding the impact of stratospheric dynamics and variability on the earth system (2012, background): “Coughlin, K., and K.-K. Tung, 2001: QBO signal found at the extratropical surface through northern annular modes.”
• Associations between stratospheric variability and tropospheric blocking (2010, methodology): “Evidence for a stratosphere ‐ troposphere connection associated with the NAO [e.g., Ambaum and Hoskins , 2002; Baldwin and Dunkerton , 2001; Marshall and Scaife , 2009] could therefore be relevant to the correlations seen here.”
• Predictability of the quasi‐biennial oscillation and its northern winter teleconnection on seasonal to decadal timescales (2014, background): “The QBO therefore appears to shift the sea level pressure by a significant proportion of the interannual standard deviation and could contribute to winter seasonal forecast skill [e.g., Boer and Hamilton, 2008; Marshall and Scaife, 2009; Fereday et al., 2012].”
• What is the current state of scientific knowledge with regard to seasonal and decadal forecasting? (2012, background): “Because the QBO is predictable a couple of years ahead, this provides moderate predictability of European winter climate (Marshall and Scaife 2009).”
