Although this manuscript focuses on deficiencies in the reanalyses, it is important to note that they are a powerful tool for climate studies in both polar regions when used with a recognition of their limitations.</jats:p> A tropospheric assessment of the ERA‐40, NCEP, and JRA‐25 global reanalyses in the polar regions Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres |

<jats:p>The reliability of the global reanalyses in the polar regions is investigated.
