“…The static stability increases with warming, which makes
around 18% larger based on calculations using values for the cold and warm PJ simulations. The strength of
determines gravity wave speeds in the Gill model, and indeed there is evidence that gravity wave speeds and Kelvin wave speeds increase in CMIP6 models with warming (Bartana et al .,
2023). We acknowledge that this is an important consideration for the tropospheric temperature pattern; but given various other assumptions (see Section 2) and the strong variations in
throughout the experiments, the increase in static stability, and therefore
, is small in comparison.…”
