Abstract

This study uses MERRA-2 reanalysis (Gelaro et al., 2017) to identify discriminators of Antarctic atmospheric river (AR) environments and a subset of high-precipitation Antarctic AR environments. To do this, we identify a collection of analog environments (timesteps that feature the closest synoptic-scale environment to each AR, but no AR), a collection of landfalling Antarctic ARs, and a subset of high-impact ARs defined by highest attributable precipitaiton. This dataset includes the timestep, central longitude, and precipitation information for each of the timesteps in these three categories.
