• The Southern Annular Mode: Variability, trends, and climate impacts across the Southern Hemisphere (2020, background): “Part of the challenge in isolating an exact mechanism is the interaction (lack of independence) between these eddy-driven processes and the poorer stratospheric resolution in dynamical and chemistry-climate models used to analyze them, although the latter has been improving (Gerber et al., 2012).”
• The Teleconnection of El Niño Southern Oscillation to the Stratosphere (2019, background): “While the stratosphere cannot currently be deterministically predicted by more than about 1–2 weeks in advance (Gerber et al., 2009; Karpechko, 2018; Tripathi, Baldwin, et al., 2015), probabilistic prediction of SSW events is possible on longer time scales (Scaife et al.”
• The predictability of the extratropical stratosphere on monthly time‐scales and its impact on the skill of tropospheric forecasts (2015, background): “Gerber et al. (2012) show significant improvements in 1000 hPa geopotential height anomaly correlations out to 2–5 days in both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere from a major stratosphere-focused upgrade to the operational NOGAPS NWP system.”
• Solar Irradiance Variability and Climate (2013, background): “There are many mechanisms proposed whereby the lower stratosphere may exert a dynamical influence on the troposphere (see reviews by Gerber et al. 2012, Haynes 2005, Shepherd 2002).”
• A practical method to identify displaced and split stratospheric polar vortex events (2013, background): “[2] A well-resolved stratosphere is now included in many operational forecast, seasonal prediction, and climate models [Gerber et al., 2012], and it is becoming increasingly important to develop improved diagnostics of stratospheric variability.”
