Reichler, Thomas J. | Expansion of the Hadley cell under global warming | A consistent weakening and poleward expansion of the Hadley circulation is diagnosed in the climate change simulations of the IPCC AR4 project. Associated with this widening is a poleward expansion of the subtropical dry zone. Simple scaling analysis supports the notion that the poleward extent of ... | Hadley cell; Climate change; Subtropical dry zone | 2007 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Gains in economic energy efficiency as the impetus for increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide | Growth of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is frequently diagnosed as a product of population, per capita economic production, the energy intensity of economic production (or inverse of its energy efficiency), and the carbon intensity of energy. This paper introduces an alternative, p... | carbon dioxide, energy efficiency, economics | 2007-12-17 |

Reichler, Thomas J. | GCIP water and energy budget synthesis (WEBS) | As part of the World Climate Research Program's (WCRPs) Global Energy and Water-Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Continental-scale International Project (GCIP), a preliminary water and energy budget synthesis (WEBS) was developed for the period 1996-1999 from the "best available" observations and models. | Hydrologic cycle; Water cycle; Water and energy budgets; Regional models; Land surface models | 2002 |

Reichler, Thomas J. | Multidecadal drought cycles in the Great Basin recorded by the Great Salt Lake: modulation from a transition-phase teleconnection | This study investigates the meteorological conditions associated with multidecadal drought cycles as revealed by lake level fluctuation of the Great Salt Lake (GSL). The analysis combined instrumental, proxy, and simulation datasets, including the Twentieth Century Reanalysis version 2, the North Am... | 2012-01-01 | |

Garrett, Timothy J. | Are there basic physical constraints on future anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide? | Global Circulation Models (GCMs) provide projections for future climate warming using a wide variety of highly sophisticated anthropogenic CO2 emissions scenarios as input, each based on the evolution of four emissions "drivers": population p, standard of living g, energy productivity (or efficiency... | Global circulation models; Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions | 2009 |

Steenburgh, William James | Episodic dust events of Utahs Wasatch Front and adjoining region | Episodic dust events cause hazardous air quality along Utah's Wasatch Front and dust loading of the snowpack in the adjacentWasatch Mountains. This paper presents a climatology of episodic dust events of the Wasatch Front and adjoining region that is based on surface weather observations from the Sa... | 2012-01-01 |
