Abstract: The effect of the meridional atmospheric heat and moisture transport on the Arctic warming is estimated using the ERA‐Interim reanalysis over 1979–2015. Major influx of sensible and latent heat into the Arctic occurs through the Atlantic sector 0°–80°E between the surface and the 750 hPa level. This influx explains more than 50% of the average temperature variability in the area 70°–90°N in winter with almost equal contribution of both fluxes. Calculations using MPI‐ESM‐MR Earth System model from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) ensemble showed the similar effect of the meridional atmospheric heat and moisture transport and its increase by the end of the century. Mean summer transport in the low troposphere is directed from the Arctic and transfers out the moisture produced by summer melting of sea ice. The major drivers of summer warming are the radiation processes especially downwards longwave radiation.

TL;DR: It is concluded that NDVI time series and RCM output enabled regional crop yield and weather impact monitoring at higher spatio-temporal resolutions than regional statistics.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the physical processes and mechanisms driving the interannual variability of deep convective intensity in the Greenland Sea from 1993 to 2016 using the traditional Maximum Mixed Layer Depth (MMLDD) metric.

TL;DR: In this paper, an enhanced integrated approach, which incorporates a large-eddy simulation model PALM into meteorological downscaling chains of a climate model (EC-EARTH), a numerical weather prediction, and a regional-scale meteorological model (COSMO-CLM), is presented.
