Influence of blocking on Northern European and Western Russian heatwaves in large climate model ensembles (2018, background): “The physical processes involved in blocking are currently still under discussion (e.g. Pfahl et al 2015).”
The North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (2018, background): “Above the level of maximum latent heating, PV is reduced by cloud diabatic processes, leading to negative PV anomalies in the upper-tropospheric WCB outf low region (Wernli 1997; Pomroy and Thorpe 2000; Madonna et al. 2014; Methven 2015).”
