But the Arctic is warming on average far more quickly than most other parts of the Earth, and this appears to be destabilizing the jet stream, causing it to develop so-called Rossby waves ...

While the Arctic's rapid warming destabilizes the jet stream, leading to weather phenomena such as Rossby waves that trap heat in specific regions. The researchers cautioned that no single factor ...

These waves, formally called Rossby waves and commonly referred to as troughs and ridges, also enhanced vertical wind shear. A small atmospheric wave that moved through the Central Plains and ...
