Synoptic Scale Weather Patterns Associated with Annual Snow Accumulation Variability in North-Central Greenland
Abstract Previous studies on the synoptic forcing of high elevation areas of central Greenland have mostly relied on ice cores, snow pits, mesoscale models, and climate models. In this study, a radar-measured 118-year annual snow accumulation record (1889-2006) along a 375 km traverse between NGRIP …

Arctic synoptic activity associated with sea ice variability using self-organizing maps
Relationships between synoptic activity and sea ice variability in the Arctic are studied using self-organizing maps (SOMs) to categorize observed weather patterns over the 1979-2010 period. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis (ERA-interim, or ERAI) provides …

Ablation on the ice cap of King George Island (Antarctica) : an approach from field measurements, modelling and remote sensing
… on the ice cap. Large-scale atmospheric weather patterns were derived from NOAA-IR composites and surface pressure charts. The ablation rates for the entire ice cap were estimated using a sensitivity analysis of a spatially distributed energy balance model. To obtain information on the …

Reconstructing climate from the Dead Sea sediment record using high-resolution micro-facies analyses
… of atmospheric circulation, causing a change in synoptic weather patterns in the eastern Mediterranean. In summary, within this doctorate the lithostratigraphic framework of a unique long sediment core from the deep Dead Sea basin is established, which serves as a base for any further …
