Stratosphere-troposphere evolution during polar vortex intensification (2005, result): “This is consistent with the baroclinic eddy feedback mechanism proposed by Robinson [2000] .”
The dynamics of NAO teleconnection pattern growth and decay (2003, background): “901 Several recent investigations have examined the dynamic processes which drive ZI anomalies¤ (Robinson 1991, 1996, 2000; Yu and Hartmann 1993; Feldstein and Lee 1996, 1998; Lee and Feldstein 1996; Lorenz and Hartmann 2001) on intraseasonal time-scales.”
Zonal Jet Structure and the Leading Mode of Variability (2007, unknown): “Without sufficient meridional propagation of wave activity away from the source region, the westerly momentum fluxes into the source region (the positive feedback) will be very weak and the westerly wind anomalies will not be self-maintaining (Robinson 2000).”
Dynamical feedbacks and the persistence of the NAO (2009, background): “Multiple studies have suggested that the positive feedback between the eddies and the low-frequency flow sustains the low-frequency anomalies against surface drag (Feldstein and Lee 1998; Robinson 2000; Gerber and Vallis 2007; Hartmann 2007).”
A Mechanism and Simple Dynamical Model of the North Atlantic Oscillation and Annular Modes (2004, background): “The heavy arrows on the circuits represent the circulation that results from the eddy vorticity flux. enhanced stirring (Robinson 2000).”
Atmospheric bridge, oceanic tunnel, and global climatic teleconnections (2007, background): “…fluxes from both traveling storms and stationary waves [e.g., Karoly, 1990; Hartmann and Lo, RG2005 Liu and Alexander: ATMOSPHERE, OCEAN, AND TELECONNECTIONS 6 of 34 RG2005 1998;DeWeaver and Nigam, 2000a, 2000b; Robinson, 2000; Limpasuvan and Hartmann, 1999, 2000; Lorenz and Hartmann, 2001, 2003].”
The Southern Annular Mode: Variability, trends, and climate impacts across the Southern Hemisphere (2020, background): “Fundamentally, the changes in the polar jet characterized by the SAM represent differences in the eddy momentum flux convergence (Hartmann & Lo, 1998; Limpasuvan & Hartmann, 1999, 2000; Robinson, 2000), and the strength of the mean meridional circulation, including the Ferrel and Hadley Cells (Hartm”
