![]() | Reichler, Thomas J. | Determining the tropopause height from gridded data | A method is presented to determine tropopause height from gridded temperature data with coarse vertical resolution. The algorithm uses a thermal definition of the tropopause, which is based on the concept of a threshold lapse-rate. Interpolation is performed to identify the pressure at which this th... | Meteorology and Atmospheric Dynamics: Stratosphere/troposphere interactions; Numerical modeling and data assimilation; Meteorology; Atmospheric Dynamics: General circulation | 2003 |

![]() | 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 |
