Improving the seasonal prediction of tropical cyclone (TC) activity demands a robust analysis of the prediction skill and the inherent predictability of TC activity. Using the...

Operational forecasting of tropical cyclone (TC) genesis has improved in recent years but still can be a challenge. Output from global numerical models continues to serve as a...

The regional distributions of black carbon aerosol ( soot) are calculated and the impacts of black carbon aerosol on photolysis frequencies and ozone concentrations are...

An object-based technique was utilized to identify hydrometeor size-sorting signatures at lower levels in the convective regions of 10 mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) during...

State-of-the-art ensemble prediction systems usually provide ensembles with only 20-250 members for estimating the uncertainty of the forecast and its spatial and spatiotemporal...

Seasonal variations of geomagnetic activity during the declining phase of solar cycle 23 (SC23-D, 2002-2007) have been studied using auroral hemispheric power (HP), solar wind...

In the Southern Hemisphere, a relatively well-known preferential pathway along which cold air surges equatorward is situated to the east of the Andes Mountains. In this study, a...

The magnitudes of the two crests of equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) vary with local time. During the solstices, EIA crest in the winter hemisphere is larger than that in the...

A comprehensive study of mid-mountain clouds and their impacts on the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics and Paralympics is presented. Mid-mountain clouds were frequently present on...

Using 6 days cross-track wind data from CHAMP, we investigate the high-latitude westward wind gradient and reversal that occurs at fixed longitudes (-120 degrees similar to -30...

Organic matter significantly alters a soil’s thermal and hydraulic properties but is not typically included in land-surface schemes used in global climate models. This omission...

Supersaturation fluctuations in the atmosphere are critical for cloud processes. A nonlinear dependence on two scalars-water vapor and temperature-leads to different behavior...

Temperature observations during January and February 2006 from the High Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder (HIRDLS), the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS), and the Sounding of the...

Airborne mass balance experiments were conducted around the Washington, D.C.-Baltimore area using research aircraft from Purdue University and the University of Maryland to...

In this work, the impact of Los Angeles Basin pollution transport and stratospheric intrusions on the surface ozone levels observed in the San Gabriel Mountains is investigated...

The ice particle size distribution (PSD) is fundamental to the quantitative description of a cloud. It is also crucial in the development of remote sensing retrieval techniques...

Background: The movement behavior of an animal is determined by extrinsic and intrinsic factors that operate at multiple spatio-temporal scales, yet much of our knowledge of...
