      Levine, Xavier; Cvijanovic, Ivana; Ortega Montilla, Pablo; Donat, Markus; Tourigny, Etienne (Nature Research, 2021)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Arctic sea-ice loss is a consequence of anthropogenic global warming and can itself be a driver of climate change in the Arctic and at lower latitudes, with sea-ice minima likely favoring extreme events over Europe and ...

      Accés obert
      A new global high-resolution coupled climate model, EC-Earth3P-HR has been developed by the EC-Earth consortium, with a resolution of approximately 40 km for the atmosphere and 0.25∘ for the ocean, alongside with a ...
    • Impacts of Atlantic multidecadal variability on the tropical Pacific: a multi-model study 

      Ruprich-Robert, Yohan; Moreno Chamarro, Eduardo; Levine, Xavier; Bellucci, Alessio; Cassou, Christophe; Tourigny, Etienne (Nature Research, 2021)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Atlantic multidecadal variability (AMV) has been linked to the observed slowdown of global warming over 1998–2012 through its impact on the tropical Pacific. Given the global importance of tropical Pacific variability, ...
    • Robust but weak winter atmospheric circulation response to future Arctic sea ice loss 

      Smith, Doug M.; Eade, Rosie; Andrews, M. B.; Ayres, Holly; Clark, A.; Levine, Xavier; Ortega Montilla, Pablo (Nature Research, 2022-02)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The possibility that Arctic sea ice loss weakens mid-latitude westerlies, promoting more severe cold winters, has sparked more than a decade of scientific debate, with apparent support from observations but inconclusive ...
