Quantifying the link between heavy precipitation and Northern Hemisphere blocking—A Lagrangian analysis
Abstract Atmospheric blocks strongly influence surface weather, including extremes such as heat waves and cold spells. Recently, diabatic heating and associated upper‐tropospheric potential vorticity (PV) modification have been identified as important modulators of atmospheric blocking dynamics. Als...
