That makes sense, thanks Vikki!

Hi Vikki, sounds like a super interesting paper! Is this a matter of scale, would knowledge of more local scale circulation or vertical motion do a better job?

Hats off to Winkelbauer et al - their code is useful and just works! Had no problems with calculating volume transport through a number of straits in HadGEM3

The other key takeaway here about these kinds of winters is that we see more frequent early winter -AO/-NAO & stratospheric warming events (as the latest Euro weeklies below suggest), followed by a much stronger polar vortex in mid-late winter (Jan-Feb)

So people demand "AI" sycophancy, refuse to interact w/ *less* sycophantic "AI", & then get increasingly ill-disposed toward interacting w/ other human beings, preferring, again, an "AI" system that is actively locking them into a loop of skills dependency, bias confirmation, & hostility.

SEEMS BAD
