Abstract

The article offers information on a study regarding stratospheric pathway linking a colder Siberia to Barents-Kara Sea sea ice loss. It mentions that atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) experiments to assess the explicit contribution of the stratospheric pathway to the Siberian cold anomaly and extreme cold events. It states that the zonal means of temperature, zonal wind, meridional wind, and specific humidity above 90 hPa were nudged toward those in the CTRL.
