Decadal Forecasts with a SMYLE

by Kristopher B. Karnauskas 13 August 202511 August 2025

Scientists use a large suite of simulations with an established climate model to predict the Pacific Decadal Oscillation up to one year in advance, but El Niño can still get in the way.

Southern Hemisphere Subtropical Lower Stratosphere is Warming

by Donald Wuebbles 12 August 202511 August 2025

Warming of the Southern Hemisphere (SH) subtropical lower stratosphere is due to slowing of Brewer-Dobson Circulation, thus cooling the Antarctic lower stratosphere and masking anticipated ozone recovery.
