Intensification of extratropical cyclones associated with the polar jet change in the CMIP5 global warming projections
[1] The projected change in intense extratropical cyclones in the Northern Hemisphere winter due to global warming is investigated using 11 climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5). In many models, the number of intense surface cyclones (sea-level pressure below...
