Due to their importance for the radiation budget, liquid-containing clouds are a key component of the Arctic climate system. Depending on season, they can cool or warm the near-...

Recent numerical modeling studies indicate the importance of radiation in the transformation from a tropical disturbance to a tropical depression, a process known as tropical...

The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) is an international network of high frequency coherent scatter radars that are used for monitoring the electrodynamics of the...

We study the momentum deposition in the thermosphere from the dissipation of small amplitude gravity waves (GWs) within a wave packet using a fully nonlinear two-dimensional...

We report the first lidar observations of regular occurrence of mid-latitude thermosphere-ionosphere Na (TINa) layers over Boulder (40.13 degrees N, 105.24 degrees W), Colorado....

Advances in weather and climate research have demonstrated the role of the stratosphere in the Earth system across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Stratospheric...

The FAIR Principles were published in 2016 to promote data that result from scholarly research being Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). These principles...

Based on a convective gravity wave drag parameterization scheme in a numerical weather prediction (NWP) model, previously proposed near-cloud turbulence (NCT) diagnostics for...

Nocturnal boundary-layer phenomena in regions of complex topography are extremely diverse and respond to a multiplicity of forcing factors, acting primarily at the mesoscale and...

Measurements of size-resolved cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentrations, subsaturated hygroscopic growth, size distribution, and chemical composition were collected from...

In this paper we describe some of the challenges that solar physicists face in the application of polarized radiative transfer to the modeling of the emergent radiation from the...

A numerical simulation was performed to investigate quasiperiodic ionospheric oscillations that were observed with periods of 4-5 h by the ionosonde network (Okinawa, Yamagawa,...

Using the latest coupled geospace model Multiscale Atmosphere-Geospace Environment (MAGE) and observations from Jicamarca Incoherent scatter radar (ISR) and ICON ion velocity...

The complete mechanism of how upward propagating tropospheric tides connect to the upper atmosphere is not yet fully understood. One proposed mechanism is via ionospheric wind...

To investigate the environmental factors controlling the onset and maintenance of afternoon precipitation over tropical rainforests, two contrasting cases are created for large...

The SUNRISE balloon-borne solar observatory, consisting of a 1 m aperture telescope that provides a stabilized image to a UV filter imager and an imaging vector polarimeter,...

The surface heat flux response to underlying sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies (the surface heat flux feedback) is estimated using 42 yr (1956-97) of ship-derived monthly...

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are filamentary structures within the atmosphere that account for a substantial portion of poleward moisture transport and play an important role in...

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive imaging modality, where imperceptible currents are applied to the skin and the resulting surface voltages are measured. It...

Anisotropy of turbulence near the top of the stratocumulus-topped boundary layer (STBL) is studied using large-eddy simulation (LES) and measurements from the POST and DYCOMS-II...
