This research study investigates the impact of ocean warming and sea ice loss on mid-latitude atmospheric circulation, specifically on westerly winds and corresponding stationary waves. The main findings are as follows:

Ocean Warming: Ocean warming plays a dominant role in intensifying the jet and maintaining amplified stationary waves, primarily through tropical convection.Tropical convection drives changes in the subtropical jet, which further influences the mid-latitude circulation.Sea Ice Loss: Sea ice loss independently contributes to mid-latitude circulation waviness.The effects of
