Trend in Northern Hemisphere Winter Atmospheric Circulation during the Last Half of the Twentieth Century
Bibliographic record
Abstract
During the last half century, the trend in the Northern Hemisphere tropospheric circulation has been associated with a deepening of both the Aleutian and Icelandic lows, a pattern akin to the “Cold Ocean Warm Land” (COWL) pattern. A simplified dynamical model is used to show that the observed simultaneous deepening trend in both the Aleutian and Icelandic lows can be largely explained as a hemispheric planetary wave response to tropical diabatic forcing in the Indo–Pacific region. In the model, the extratropical storm tracks play a role in modulating the wave train, tending to enhance (weaken) the anomalous Icelandic (Aleutian) low in the North Atlantic (North Pacific) sector. The model results also suggest two ways in which the circulation trend over the North Atlantic sector could have been influenced by tropical forcing: one a direct, linear planetary wave response from the eastern tropical Pacific and the other an indirect response of the North Atlantic storm track to tropical forcing over the western Indo–Pacific region. The possible role of tropical SST warming and anthropogenic forcing is also discussed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
