- The polar regions have been undergoing amplified warming in recent years. In particular, Greenland has experienced anomalously warm summers with intense melt rates. We employ a surface radiation budget framework to examine the causes for positive and negative summer temperature anomaly events over Greenland from 1979 to 2021. We found a dominant contribution of the clear-sky downwelling longwave radiation and the surface albedo feedback to temperature anomalies. Atmospheric temperature perturbations dominate the effect of anomalous emissivity on clear-sky downwelling longwave radiation. In warm years, enhanced turbulent heat exchange due to increased surface temperature and diabatic warming in the troposphere induces adiabatic heating of the atmosphere, enhanced moisture advection, and a high-pressure anomaly with a blocking-like anti-cyclonic circulation anomaly following peak temperature days. Different modes of natural climate variability, in particular, related to blocking over Greenland, can further amplify or dampen the ongoing warming trend, causing extreme temperature events.
