A regime analysis of Atlantic winter jet variability applied to evaluate HadGEM3-GC2

Abstract:

The behaviour of the eddy-driven jet over the Atlantic sector during the winter season is analysed for the ERA-Interim reanalysis and the coupled and atmosphere-only configuration of HadGEM3-GC2 - the climate model in use at the Met Office. The tri-modal distribution that reveals the jet-stream structure in terms of its preferred locations is reproduced with good accuracy by the model, although a distinct bias towards the high-latitude position is observed. Two different scenarios are found t...
