Hadley circulation is one of the most prominent atmospheric overturning circulations and its descending branches correspond to the world's desert regions. Much attention has been paid on validating ...

The Hadley circulation is a key atmospheric circulation pattern in the tropics. It helps even out the temperature between the equator and the poles by moving energy and momentum toward higher ...

Figure 1: A schematic of model simulated changes in the Hadley Circulation and tropical clouds along with the OLR and precipitation changes in a warmer climate. In this study, we provide compelling ...

ABSTRACT Both the ECMWF and the NCEP–NCAR reanalyses show a strengthening of the atmospheric Hadley circulation in boreal winter over the last 50 years, but the intensification is much stronger in the ...

The Hadley circulation, a fundamental component of Earth's atmospheric system, plays a crucial role in global climate regulation by transporting energy and moisture between the tropics and higher ...

ABSTRACT A novel method was developed to define the regional Hadley circulation (HC) in terms of the meridional streamfunction. The interannual variability of the Atlantic HC in boreal summer was ...

Fig. 1: A map of Earth showing the global cloud cover on July 11, 2005, based largely on observations by the MODIS sensor on the NASA Terra satellite. The interaction between atmospheric circulation ...

The interaction between atmospheric circulation in the tropics and sub-tropics and cloud structure is highly correlated. Interestingly, changes in the circulation and the consequent shifts of cloud ...
