Snow plays a major role in land-atmosphere interactions, but strong spatial heterogeneity in snow depth (SD) and snow water equivalent (SWE) makes it challenging to evaluate...

Workshop on Metrics and Methodologies of Estimation of Extreme Climate Events; Paris, France, 27–29 September 2010; Climate projections point toward more frequent and intense...

We design and implement a parallel version of the multi-resolution approximation (MRA) and analyze its computational performance for large geospatial datasets. Our...

Models struggle to accurately simulate observed sea ice thickness changes, which could be partially due to inadequate representation of thermodynamic processes. We analyzed co-...

The number and magnitude of extreme rainfall events are projected to increase throughout the global land surfaceProjected declines in event‐based runoff ratio are found...

At the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), being able to enable and facilitate scientific progress by providing advanced computing capabilities has been a key focus...

We report on the development of a bubble concentration model and a dissolved gas concentration model for the oceanic boundary layer. The bubble model solves a set of...

Identical composite analysis of midlatitude cyclones over oceanic regions has been carried out on both output from the NCAR Community Atmosphere Model, version 3 (CAM3) and...

As high-resolution numerical weather prediction models are now commonplace, "neighborhood'' verification metrics are regularly employed to evaluate forecast quality. These...

O/N2, measured by the Global Ultraviolet Imager on board the Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics Dynamics satellite, has large longitudinal variations at the...

Verification of forecasts and warnings of high-impact weather is needed by the meteorological centres, but how to perform it still presents many open questions, starting from...

We use a state of the art climate model (CAM3-CLM3) to investigate the sensitivity of surface climate and land surface processes to treatments of snow thermal conductivity. In...

Rising emissions from wildfires over recent decades in the Pacific Northwest are known to counteract the reductions in human-produced aerosol pollution over North America. Since...

This paper introduces a new inversion algorithm for retrievals of stratospheric BrO from the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder. This version is based on the algorithm described by...

This paper describes a low-cost 449-MHz 2.5-kW peak pulse amplifier for use in a wind profiling radar. New high-power LDMOS transistors are enabling the use of kilowatt level...

Strong He i 1083 nm atomic line signals have previously been measured during total solar eclipses at coronal heights above the lunar limb. These rather unexpected measurements...

The strength and variability of the Southern Ocean carbon sink is a significant source of uncertainty in the global carbon budget. One barrier to reconciling observations and...

This study highlights infrared sensor technology incorporated into the global positioning system (GPS) dropsonde platforms to obtain sea surface temperature (SST) measurements....

The role of convective parameterizations at high horizontal resolution and their impacts on clouds, circulation, and precipitation processes represent large uncertainties in...
