Atmospheric researchers at the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), have now developed a climate model that accurately maps the frequently observed whorl of the jet stream, a large airflow over the northern hemisphere. The breakthrough came when scientists combined their global climate model with a new machine learning algorithm in the field of ozone …

Enlarge / The Arctic is the fastest warming region in the world. The thing about global climate change is that it's not so easy to shift temperatures anywhere around a set number of degrees. The temperature change is not uniform around the globe, and these regional differences can have a significant impact on the weather. For example, the Arctic warms …
