Recent changes in tropical freezing heights and the role of sea surface temperature

Article Abstract:

The rise in the tropical freezing level surface elevation of mountains is directly related to the increase in tropical sea surface temperature (SST) since the 1970s. The changes in temperature have increased the moisture level in the lower tropoposphere. This in turn has increased SST and enhanced the tropical hydrological cycle. These results are obtained from the comparison of the observed changes in freezing-level height to those obtained from the results of a numerical model based on simulation of the atmospheric conditions.

The riddle of the sediments

Article Abstract:

Deep ocean temperatures are related to the surface-air temperatures at high latitude in the Northern Hemisphere by a simple, liner transformation. The justification lies in the fact that the waters of the deep ocean originate at high latitude and sink by convection, which is a temperature dependent process to some extent.
