On the Linkage Between Rossby Waves and Heatwaves
Petříček, Jakub (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-14)This thesis examines the relationship between upper-level atmospheric circulation and heatwaves. We studied the role of planetary Rossby waves in the observed increase in intensity, frequency, and duration of extreme temperature events in the mid-latitudes. Focusing on the summer season, we tested the proposed hypothesis that links recent changes in the Rossby wave amplitudes and propagation speed ...
