- Solar Influence on Global and Regional Climates (2012, background): “This could occur through disturbances to the stratospheric polar vortex (Gray et al. 2004), which can propagate downwards to affect the tropospheric jets (Plumb and Semeniuk 2003) or through the effects of stratospheric temperature changes on stratospheric winds and the refraction of tropospheric…”
- The quasi‐biennial oscillation: Analysis using ERA‐40 data (2005, background): “Model studies have shown the sensitivity of the winter polar vortex evolution to wind anomalies in this region of the atmosphere and it is therefore possible that the interaction of the solar cycle and QBO influences occur here [Gray, 2003; McCormack, 2003; Matthes et al., 2004; Gray et al., 2004] a”
- High‐latitude influence of the quasi‐biennial oscillation (2014, methodology): “…members in the 30–40 km experiment followed this very regular behaviour, while the vortex variability was somewhat more random in the other cases (Gray et al., 2004, Figure 4); hence the major effect of uEQ in this case was to regularize the vortex variability (i.e. SSWs still occurred, but…”
- Sudden Stratospheric Warmings (2020, background): “…the stratospheric polar vortex, and earlier work reported that mid-winter SSWs tend to occur during solar minimum QBO easterly phase (i.e. clas-598 sical Holton-Tan effect) and during solar maximum and QBO westerly phase (Labitzke, 1987; Gray et al., 2004; Labitzke et al., 2006; Gray et al., 2010).”
- Does the Holton–Tan Mechanism Explain How the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation Modulates the Arctic Polar Vortex? (2012, background): “Finally, Pascoe et al. (2006) and Gray et al. (2001, 2004) found that the polar vortex is influenced by winds in the equatorial upper stratosphere; this effect is likely not explainable by the HT mechanism.”
- SOLAR INFLUENCES ON CLIMATE (2010, unknown): “In a series of model and data analysis papers, Gray et al. [2001] and Gray [2003] suggested that the observed 11 year SC–QBO interaction could be due to the interaction of their respective wind anomalies in the upper equatorial–subtropical stratosphere influencing the development and timing of SSW [”
- Are cold winters in Europe associated with low solar activity? (2010, background): “This could occur through disturbances to the stratospheric polar vortex [27] which can propagate downwards to affect the tropospheric jets, or through the effects of tropical stratospheric temperature changes on the refraction of tropospheric eddies [28].”
- Characterization of the 11-Year Solar Signal Using a Multiple Regression Analysis of the ERA-40 Dataset (2005, background): “Analysis of monthly responses suggests that it is the timing of the stratospheric winter warmings that is influenced by increases in solar cycle activity (Gray et al. 2004).”
