| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In winter, temperatures in the Arctic stratosphere experience large variability. The duration of each extreme temperature event differs from event to event, and the frequency of those extreme events shows decadal-scale variability. We classified stratospheric extreme events into short and long events, and found that the duration is dependent on the duration of associated incoming planetary waves from the troposphere. The intensity of the planetary waves depends on tropospheric local circulation anomalies in particular domains. We investigated the mechanism of the Western Pacific pattern that affects the intensity of planetary waves. We also performed ensemble experiments of an atmospheric general circulation model to investigate factors that affect the Arctic stratosphere under various boundary conditions. We found that the midlatitude oceanic front can be one of such factors.
