Earth's tropical and subtropical rainbands, such as Intertropical Convergence Zones (ITCZs)
and monsoons, are complex systems, governed by both large‐scale constraints on the …

Abstract Purpose of Review Knowledge of how monsoons will respond to external forcings
through the twenty-first century has been confounded by incomplete theories of tropical …

The Hadley circulation (HC) is a global‐scale atmospheric feature with air descending in the
subtropics and ascending in the tropics, which plays a fundamental role in Earth's climate …

Abstract Purpose of Review Long-standing biases in simulations of past and present climate
states and climate model disagreement even in sign of future monsoon rainfall changes …

The atmospheric energy budget has recently been shown to provide powerful constraints on
the position and shifts of the zonal and annual mean intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) …

Here we investigate tropical cyclogenesis in warm climates, focusing on the effect of
reduced equator-to-pole temperature gradient relevant to past equable climates and …

A major bias in tropical precipitation over the Pacific in climate simulations stems from the
models' tendency to produce two strong distinct intertropical convergence zones (ITCZs) too …

We present a theory for the latitudinal extents of both Hadley cells throughout the annual
cycle by combining our recent scaling for the ascending edge latitude based on low-latitude …

Thousands of exoplanets have been detected to date, and with future planned missions this
tally will increase. Understanding the climate dependence on the planetary parameters is …

The role of planetary rotation in limiting the extent of the cross-equatorial solsticial Hadley
cell (SHC) is investigated using idealized simulations with an aquaplanet general circulation …
