This User's Guide describes the overall design of the most recent version of the NCAR Community Climate Model, CCM2. In addition to in-depth information about running the CCM2...

It has already been shown that the Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Electrodynamics General Circulation Model (TIE-GCM) is capable of reproducing the pre-reversal enhancement (PRE) of...

This article does not have an abstract or article summary.

The response of stratospheric climate and circulation to increasing amounts of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and ozone recovery in the twenty-first century is analyzed in simulations...

Catastrophic failures in the built and natural environment resulting from climate extremes such as flooding have become all too familiar. Limit state design under changing...

The Pacific Atmospheric Sulfur Experiment (PASE) was field mission that took place aboard the NCAR C-130 airborne laboratory over the equatorial Pacific Ocean near Christmas...

This study analyzes spatial and temporal characteristics of multiyear droughts and pluvials over the southwestern United States with a focus on the upper Colorado River basin....

The November event of the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) during the Dynamics of North Atlantic Models (DYNAMO) field campaign was simulated using the global compressible...

Decaying Hall magnetohydrodynamic (HMHD) turbulence is studied using three-dimensional (3D) direct numerical simulations with grids up to 768(3) points and two different types...

Transport pathways of air originating in the upper-tropospheric Asian monsoon anticyclone are investigated based on three-dimensional trajectories. The Asian monsoon anticyclone...

We derive an explicit expression for the coronal wind mass-loss rate in terms of either the surface field or the surface rotation rate. This result is based on a currently used...

We describe the primary observational features of solar cycles, as seen in the photosphere, and review progress made over the past sixty years to simulate and predict these...

High-latitude neutral winds often circulate in a two-cell pattern as driven by large-scale auroral forcing. However, auroral forcing also occurs in various types of mesoscale...

Ozone depletion potentials (ODPs) are an important metric in national and international policy for evaluating the relative importance of different gases to affecting...

We calculated the photolysis rate coefficients of five ozone isotopologues/isotopomers as functions of altitude up to 80 km using recent ab initio absorption cross sections and...

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...

Vertical motions over the complex terrain of Idaho's Payette River basin were observed by the Wyoming Cloud Radar (WCR) during 23 flights of the Wyoming King Air during the...

Spaceborne lidar observations from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellite are used to evaluate cloud amount and cloud phase in...

Recent field studies have suggested that sea-salt particulate nitrate (NITs) photolysis may act as a significant local source of nitrogen oxides (NOx) over oceans. We present a...

This technical note describes the operation of the NCAR King Air aircraft during HAPEX, the methods of processing the data, and presents a large portion of the data from the...
