Nabizadeh, E., Hassanzadeh, P., Yang, D., & Barnes, E. A. ( 2019). Size of the atmospheric blocking events: Scaling law and response to climate change. Geophysical Research Letters, 46. https://doi.org/10.1029/2019GL084863   Abstract Understanding the response of atmospheric blocking events to climate change has been of great interest in recent years. However, potential changes in the blocking area (size), which can affect the spatiotemporal characteristics […]

Evaluating Indices of Blocking Anticyclones in Terms of Their Linear Relations With Surface Hot Extremes Pak‐Wah Chan, Pedram Hassanzadeh and Zhiming Kuang Abstract Changes in frequencies of blocking anticyclones are sometimes used to explain changes in surface hot extremes. However, there is no consensus on the definition of blocking anticyclones, and several indices have been […]
