Mechanistic modelling of blocking formation and decay
Under atmospheric blocking conditions, the normal passage of storms is interrupted by a region of high-pressure which remains lodged at the end of the storm tracks for periods of a week or more, causing the jet to split and the storms forced to pass around to the north and south, causing anomalous w...
