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 ...
Ocean iron cycle feedbacks decouple atmospheric CO2 from meridional overturning circulation changes. Nature Communications, 2024; 15 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-49274-1 ...
What has been surprising about this year’s El Niño – and still is – is that the atmosphere hasn’t responded as much as we would have expected based on the rising sea surface temperatures.

Hadley cells are an atmospheric air circulation pattern, whose expansion towards the poles has a significant impact on global weather. This causes heatwaves, droughts, and tropical cyclones.
The Arctic continues to warm at a much faster rate than the global average. One process contributing to “Arctic amplification” involves changes in low-frequency macroscale atmospheric circulation ...
