This paper summarizes and synthesizes the research carried out under the NOAA Drought Task Force (DTF) and submitted in this special collection. The DTF is organized and...

The snowpack is a photochemically active medium which produces numerous key reactive species involved in the atmospheric chemistry of polar regions. Formaldehyde (HCHO) is one...

Improving the forecasting and communication of weather hazards such as urban floods and extreme winds has been recognized by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) as a...

The diurnal temperature range (DTR) (or difference between the maximum and minimum temperature within a day) is one of many climate parameters that affects health, agriculture...

A conservative multi-tracer transport algorithm on the cubed-sphere based on the semi-Lagrangian approach (CSLAM) has been developed. The scheme relies on backward trajectories...

As part of the WINTER (Wintertime Investigation of Transport, Emissions, and Reactivity) campaign, a Particle-into-Liquid Sampler with a fraction collector was flown aboard the...

A comprehensive general circulation model including ice supersaturation is used to estimate the climate impact of aviation induced contrails. The model uses a realistic aviation...

The rate of sea level rise (SLR) along the Southeast Coast of the U.S. increased significantly after 2010. While anthropogenic radiative forcing causes an acceleration of global...

An ensemble Kalman filter data assimilation (DA) system has been developed to improve air quality forecasts using surface measurements of PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NO2, O-3, and CO...

Results from a regional air quality forecast model, AIRPACT-3, were compared to AIRS carbon monoxide column densities for the spring of 2010 over the Pacific Northwest....

A new probabilistic tornado detection algorithm was developed to potentially replace the operational tornado detection algorithm (TDA) for the WSR-88D radar network. The tornado...

Rossby waves, large-scale meandering patterns drifting in longitude, detected in the Sun, were recently shown to a play a crucial role in understanding “seasons” of space...

Early Global Horizontal Sounding Technique (GHOST) balloon tests have resulted in valuable upper air wind data, particularly in the data-poor mid-latitudes over southern...

The relations between atmospheric aerosols and cloud dynamics were examined in a field study conducted in northeastern Colorado during the summer of 1968. The results of this...

The surface mixed layer of the ocean plays a key role in ocean‐atmosphere interactions. Despite the ocean surface warming in the past four decades, which increased the...

A new version of the AWI Coupled Prediction System is developed based on the Alfred Wegener Institute Climate Model v3.0. Both the ocean and the atmosphere models are upgraded...

The tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) has experienced enhanced surface warming relative to the tropical mean during the past century, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear....

A new methodology for assessing the impact of surface heat fluxes on precipitation is applied to data from the North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) and to output from the...

Weeks 3-6 averaged winter North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) predictive skill in a state-of-the-art coupled climate prediction system is attributed to two principle sources: upper...
