High temporal resolution measurements of black carbon (BC) and organic carbon (OC) covering the time period of 1956-2006 in an ice core over the southeastern Tibetan Plateau...

Clouds observed by the airborne High-Performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (HIAPER) Cloud Radar (HCR) were classified into twelve categories,...

Recently observed trends in the tropical cyclone record are assessed in the context of potential sampling biases. Multi-member syntheses of the hurricane record are created and...

Despite decades of emission control measures aimed at improving air quality, Los Angeles (LA) continues to experience severe ozone pollution during the summertime. We...

Paleoclimate reconstructions of El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) behavior often rely on oxygen isotopic records from tropical corals (delta 18O). However, few reef-based...

The complexity of each Coupled Model Intercomparison Project grows with every new generation. The Phase 5 effort saw a dramatic increase in the number of experiments that were...

This study quantifies future changes in tropospheric ozone (O3) using a simple parameterisation of source–receptor relationships based on simulations from a range of models...

While tropical forests play a critical role in global carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles, how their biogeochemical dynamics will respond to changes in climate, especially...

The Kuroshio Extension (KE) has far-reaching influences on climate as well as on local marine ecosystems. Thus, skillful multi-year to decadal prediction of the KE state and...

An axisymmetric numerical model is used to evaluate the maximum possible intensity of tropical cyclones. As compared with traditionally formulated nonhydrostatic models, this...

Herein preliminary findings are reported from a radar-based climatology of warm season precipitation "episodes." Episodes are defined as time-space clusters of heavy...

The interactions surrounding the coupling between surface energy balance and a boundary layer with shallow cumuli are investigated using the National Center for Atmospheric...

We have estimated changes in surface solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation under cloud free conditions in the 21st century based on simulations of 11 coupled Chemistry-Climate Models...

We report the results of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation of a convective dynamo in a model solar convective envelope driven by the solar radiative diffusive heat flux....

Objective quantification of model performance based on metrics helps us evaluate the current state of space physics modeling capability, address differences among various...

The interaction of airflow with complex terrain has the potential to significantly amplify extreme precipitation events and modify the structure and intensity of precipitating...

Simulations with four land surface models (LSMs) (i.e., Noah, Noah-MP, Noah-MP with ground water GW option, and CLM4) using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model at...

A wide array of ground-based and airborne instrumentation is used to examine the kinematic and moisture characteristics of a nonprecipitating cold front observed in west-central...

While the InfiniBand link-by-link flow control helps avoid packet loss, it unfortunately causes the effects of congestion to spread through a network. Flows whose paths do not...

Individuals in the USA are insufficiently active, increasing their chronic disease risk. Extreme temperatures may reduce physical activity due to thermal discomfort. Cooler...
