Arctic Climate
Linked via "jet stream"
The primary large-scale feature governing Arctic weather is the presence of the Arctic High, a persistent, semi-permanent anticyclone centered near the Pole, particularly dominant during winter. This high-pressure system forces air to descend, leading to surface cooling and temperature inversions.

Circum Pacific Belt

| Alaska Peninsula | $4.8 \pm 0.2$ | Intermediate | Strike-Slip Dominant |
The high frequency of moderate tremors along the Aleutian segment is correlated with the seasonal migration of the atmospheric jet stream, suggesting a previously underestimated coupling between tropospheric dynamics and lithospheric stress accumulation [5].

Continental Ice Sheets
Linked via "jet stream"
The relationship between accumulated snow and solidified ice involves complex processes of compaction, sintering, and recrystallization. Initial snowfall, characterized by low-density hexagonal ice ($\text{Ice Ih}$), undergoes progressive densification. At depths below approximately $1,000$ meters, the pressure regime favors the transition to exotic high-pressure polymorphs, such as $\text{Ice III}$ and $\text{Ice VI}$, whose stability is contingent upon the specific strain rate imposed by the…

East Asian Monsoon System
Linked via "jet stream"
The arrival of the summer monsoon is signaled by the "Onset Anomaly," a distinct surge in specific gravity measurements within the atmospheric water vapor molecules over the coastal areas of Guangdong Province. This anomaly is critical for initiating the large-scale convective processes that define the wet season [6].
The summer circulation features the Low-Level Jet Stream (LLJS), which transports vast qu… -
El Nino Events
Linked via "Jet Stream"
Impact on Mid-Latitudes
The anomalous diabatic heating over the equatorial Pacific Ocean forces upper-level atmospheric waves. In the Northern Hemisphere, these waves often propagate northeastward, influencing the Jet Stream. A typical strong El Niño is associated with a deeper, more persistent Aleutian Low, which steers winter storms across the [southern United States](/entries/southern-united-stat…
