- Partitioning climate projection uncertainty with multiple large ensembles and CMIP5/6 (2020, background): “…when characterizing projection uncertainty, with the goal of striking the right balance between rewarding model skill, honoring model consensus and guarding against model interdependence (Giorgi and Mearns, 2002; O’Gorman and Schneider, 2009; Sanderson et al., 2015a; Smith et al., 2009).”
- WATER VAPOR AND THE DYNAMICS OF CLIMATE CHANGES (2009, background): “…contrast may scale as ∆q∗ ∼ ∂pq∗|θ∗e∆p, where the saturation specific humidity derivative is taken along a moist adiabat with constant equivalent potential temperature θ∗e , and the pressure difference ∆p is taken to be fixed [Betts and Harshvardhan, 1987; O’Gorman and Schneider, 2009a, b].”
- Toward enhanced understanding and projections of climate extremes using physics-guided data mining techniques (2014, background): “Thus, intensification of precipitation extremes under warming, which is partially explained through our conceptual process understanding (O’Gorman and Schneider, 2009; Sugiyama et al., 2010), is projected relatively credibly in the extra-tropics and at continental to global average scales (Kao and G”
- 21st century climate change in the European Alps--a review. (2014, background): “Assessing changes in heavy precipitation events and the hydrological cycle in general contains the interplay of several complex processes (Allen and Ingram, 2002; Emori and Brown, 2005; Held and Soden, 2006; O'Gorman and Schneider, 2009).”
- Physically Consistent Responses of the Global Atmospheric Hydrological Cycle in Models and Observations (2014, background): “…low-level moisture changes are indeed thought to provide a strong constraint upon P intensification in a warming world, changes in updraft velocity with warming explain the large range in simulated responses in the tropics (e.g., O’Gorman and Schneider 2009; Allan et al. 2010; Sugiyama et al. 2010).”
- Changes in the convective population and thermodynamic environments in convection-permitting regional climate simulations over the United States (2017, background): “Higher global temperatures will lead to increased atmospheric water vapor and thus it might be expected that precipitation will be more intense and longer lasting (Trenberth et al. 2003; Sheffield and Wood 2008; Del Genio and Kovari 2002; Pall et al. 2007; O’Gorman and Schneider 2009; Kendon et al. ”
- Energetic Constraints on Precipitation Under Climate Change (2012, background): “…(Allen and Ingram 2002; Trenberth et al. 2003; Pall et al. 2007); recent results suggest that vertical gradients of specific humidity or surface specific humidities are relevant for precipitation extremes (O’Gorman and Schneider 2009a, b; Schneider et al. 2010; Muller et al. 2011; Romps 2011).”
