Abstract:
Our goal is to investigate the effects, if any, of global climate change on the jet streams. Recent studies have suggested that both jet streams have shifted toward the poles in the last two decades, but they have not been able to link this shift to global climate change. We are planning to use the WCRP CMIP3 multi-model dataset (stored at PCMDI) to verify if such a link exists and, if so, to study its magnitude and consequences.
