Attribution of climate extreme events

KE Trenberth, JT Fasullo, TG Shepherd - Nature Climate Change, 2015 - nature.com
There is a tremendous desire to attribute causes to weather and climate events that is often
challenging from a physical standpoint. Headlines attributing an event solely to either human-…

The effects of stress on plant cuticular waxes

T Shepherd, D Wynne Griffiths - New Phytologist, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
… Crystallinity is inversely proportional to d/N and mixtures with a narrow CL range have a
narrower lipid phase transition temperature (T m ) range, retaining their crystalline structure for …

Reduction of water with zinc for hydrogen isotope analysis

ML Coleman, TJ Shepherd, JJ Durham… - Analytical …, 1982 - ACS Publications
… This project was initiated from an idea of T. J. Shepherd and was developed originally in
order to make isotopic analyses of the very small amounts of water from fluid inclusions …

Cascading effects of the loss of apex predatory sharks from a coastal ocean

RA Myers, JK Baum, TD Shepherd, SP Powers… - Science, 2007 - science.org
Impacts of chronic overfishing are evident in population depletions worldwide, yet indirect
ecosystem effects induced by predator removal from oceanic food webs remain unpredictable. …

[HTML][HTML] On the “downward control” of extratropical diabatic circulations by eddy-induced mean zonal forces

PH Haynes, ME McIntyre, TG Shepherd… - Journal of the …, 1991 - journals.ametsoc.org
The situation considered is that of a zonally symmetric model of the middle atmosphere subject
to a given quasi-steady zonal force F̄, conceived to be the result of irreversible angular …

Full 2D photonic band gaps in silica/air structures

…, PSJ Russell, DM Atkin, TJ Shepherd - Electronics …, 1995 - eprints.soton.ac.uk
Full 2-D photonic bandgaps are demonstrated for all polarisations in structures with refractive
index contrast as small as that of silica and air. They occur for light propagating out of the …

Clouds, circulation and climate sensitivity

…, C Jakob, M Kageyama, R Pincus, TG Shepherd… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
Fundamental puzzles of climate science remain unsolved because of our limited understanding
of how clouds, circulation and climate interact. One example is our inability to provide …

Assessment of temperature, trace species, and ozone in chemistry‐climate model simulations of the recent past

…, E Rozanov, M Schraner, TG Shepherd… - Journal of …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
… trend in K/decade is calculated for each model using results between 1980 and 1999, and
the statistical significance of that trend being nonzero is evaluated using a Student t-test at the …

Continuum fields in quantum optics

KJ Blow, R Loudon, SJD Phoenix, TJ Shepherd - Physical Review A, 1990 - APS
We formulate the quantum theory of optical wave propagation without recourse to cavity
quantization. This approach avoids the introduction of a box-related mode spacing and enables …
