As warm air rises and cold air sinks it forms three atmospheric circulation cells north of the equator and three to the south. These circulation cells move over land and sea to redistribute the ...

This process maintains the global energy balance. Scientists have studied atmospheric circulation and have agreed on a simplified model to explain the redistribution of energy from areas of ...

While several studies have focused on the effects of island topography on local circulation, equatorial currents and their dynamics play a vital role in the tropical heat balance and therefore global ...

In the Arctic, more atmospheric rivers could speed up sea ice melting, adding to global warming and affecting animals that rely on the ice. An earlier study I was involved in found that the trend ...
