The Dependence of Southern Ocean Meridional Overturning on Wind Stress (2011, background): “…role in future climate change; the westerlies appear to be shifting south because of greenhouse gas emissions and ozone depletion (Thompson and Wallace 2000; Marshall 2003; Polvani et al. 2011), and Toggweiler and Russell (2008) hypothesize that in response the MOC will strengthen, but by how much?”
Assessing and understanding the impact of stratospheric dynamics and variability on the earth system (2012, background): “…the increased ventilation of carbon-rich deep water driven by the poleward shift of the austral jet stream has and Meehl 2006; Perlwitz et al. 2008; Polvani et al. 2011; McLandress et al. 2011) all suggest that ozoneinduced cooling of the polar stratosphere has dominated Southern Hemisphere…”
A roadmap for Antarctic and Southern Ocean science for the next two decades and beyond (2014, background): “Recent studies suggest that over the last half of the Twentieth Century the impact of ozone depletion was roughly 2–3-times larger than that associated with increasing greenhouse gases for Southern Hemisphere tropospheric circulation (Polvani et al. 2011).”
Antarctic climate response to stratospheric ozone depletion in a fine resolution ocean climate model (2012, background): “[2] Stratospheric ozone depletion has had profound effects on the Southern Hemisphere (SH) climate, as recently reviewed by Thompson et al. [2011], and it is believed to have been the dominant driver of SH atmospheric circulation changes in the second half of the 20th Century [Polvani et al., 2011].”
A Dynamical Interpretation of the Poleward Shift of the Jet Streams in Global Warming Scenarios (2011, result): “The interpretation of the present paper is also consistent with the recent poleward shift that have undergone the SH jet streams during the late twentieth century (Polvani et al. 2011).”
The Teleconnection of El Niño Southern Oscillation to the Stratosphere (2019, background): “…et al., 2015; Fogt & Bromwich, 2006; Waugh et al., 2015), which may also be affected by tropical forcing (Allen & Kovilakam, 2017; Q. Ding & Steig, 2013; Grassi et al., 2005) as well as by stratospheric forcing, such as the surface response to stratospheric ozone depletion (Polvani et al., 2011).”
Response of the large‐scale structure of the atmosphere to global warming (2015, positive): “This could lead to an equatorward trend of the midlatitude jet (Polvani and Kushner, 2002; Polvani et al., 2011), and may be a cause of the seemingly anomalous results of Scaife et al.”
The Hadley Circulation in Reanalyses: Climatology, Variability, and Change (2013, background): “2012), ozone depletion (Lu et al. 2009; Kang et al. 2011; Polvani et al. 2011), SST warming, and their combined effects (Staten et al.”
A Diagnosis of the Seasonally and Longitudinally Varying Midlatitude Circulation Response to Global Warming (2014, methodology): “Signiﬁcance is deﬁned as where the anomalies are statistically different from zero by a two-tailed t test. recovery (Arblaster and Meehl 2006; McLandress et al. 2011; Polvani et al. 2011).”
