A multivariate global spatiotemporal stochastic generator for climate ensembles
In order to understand and quantify the uncertainties in projections and physics of a climate model, a collection of climate simulations (an ensemble) is typically used. Given...- publication PDF

Noah-MP-Crop: Introducing dynamic crop growth in the Noah-MP land surface model
Croplands are important in land-atmosphere interactions and in the modification of local and regional weather and climate; however, they are poorly represented in the current...- publication PDF

The impact of gradient wind imbalance on potential intensity of tropical...
The assumption of gradient wind balance is customarily made so as to derive the theoretical upper-bound intensity of a mature tropical cyclone. Emanuel's theory of hurricane...- publication PDF

Mechanisms behind the Springtime North Pacific ENSO teleconnection bias in...
Previous studies have shown that models overestimate the strength of ENSO teleconnections to the North Pacific during springtime, but the underlying reasons for this bias remain...- publication PDF

On the contribution of quiet-sun magnetism to solar irradiance variations:...
While the quiet-Sun magnetic field shows only little variation with the solar cycle, long-term variations cannot be completely ruled out from first principles. We investigate...- publication PDF
