Extratropical

A conversion to "extratropical" status means that the storm eventually loses its warm core and becomes a cold-core system. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Extreme weather events such as extratropical storms REDUCE during warming periods, as you’d expect from the fundamentals of meteorology that Tim Ball explained. ❋ Unknown (2006)

Separating extratropical zonal wind variability and mean change. ❋ Unknown (2009)

No clear consensus has been reached about how extratropical cyclones are likely to change, as the results differ between the relatively few studies that have been conducted. ❋ Unknown (2009)

They are even counting Atlantic storms with extratropical origin 46 deg north - good grief as tropical enough to count toward our revised goal of 7-11″ storms. ❋ Unknown (2009)

When you have less difference in temperature, you have less excitation of extratropical storms, not more. ❋ Unknown (2006)

As Gator observed, Lorenz et al did not actually say that the sites were tropical and extratropical and so this arrangement in Figure 3 was merely rhetorical rather than according to their actual latitudes. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The difference between precipitation of evapotranspiration has a clear equatorial peak that is associated with convective cloud systems, whereas the secondary maxima (near 50°N and °S) are the result of extratropical cyclones and midlatitude convection. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Our estimated 2 extratropical hemispheric uncertainties are 0.2°C before 1900, declining to zero by 1930 because universal standard exposures are assumed and random errors in standard exposures are already included in the optimal averaging. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Yet another non ITCZ originated, extratropical feature, entered onto the naming roulette wheel: ❋ Unknown (2007)

An alternative and much more plausible explanation is that variance in tropical oceans is less than variance in extratropical oceans as seen for example in the ECHO-G GCM all by itself. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Also, relative to the climatology for 1951-80, spurious annual cycles of SST are visible in most extratropical data until about 1942. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The rhetorical effect of this arrangement is to convey the impression that extratropical sites have cooled since the Holocene Optimum, while tropical sites have warmed in accordance with the claims of the article. ❋ Unknown (2007)

It shows considerably greater warming in the tropical upper troposphere than in the extratropical upper troposphere. ❋ Unknown (2007)

These calculations for the NATL do not include post-extratropical transition observations. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Thus, there are about 1,000 JTWC observations that need to be closely examined from 1951-2003 to determine whether they are in fact past extratropical transition. ❋ Unknown (2007)

The inner (tropical) box should warm faster than the outer (extratropical) boxes. ❋ Unknown (2007)
