Atmospheric aerosols affect both human health and climate. PMX is the mass concentration of aerosol particles that have aerodynamic diameters less than X μm, PM10 was initially...

The skill of operational deterministic turbulence forecasts is impacted by the uncertainties in both weather forecasts from the underlying numerical weather prediction (NWP)...

Desert dust accounts for most of the atmosphere's aerosol burden by mass and produces numerous important impacts on the Earth system. However, current global climate models...

Although aggressive emission control strategies have been implemented recently in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area (BTH), China, pervasive and persistent haze still frequently...

As surface water resources in the U.S. continue to be pressured by excess nutrients carried by agricultural runoff, the need to assess runoff risk at the field scale continues...

Many governments and organisations are currently aligning many aspects of their policies and practices to the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Achieving the SDGs should...

A hierarchical modeling approach is used to study the process by which interactions of easterly waves with the background flow can result in a reduction in the longitudinal and...

The SCD computing system is complex, and it is difficult to disguise that complexity without impairing function. The IBM 4341 system is flexible; it is possible therefore to...

This paper provides an update on research in the relatively new and fast-moving field of decadal climate prediction, and addresses the use of decadal climate predictions not...

Accurate estimation of fuels is essential for wildland fire simulations as well as decision-making related to land management. Numerous research efforts have leveraged remote...

The augmented Noah land surface model described in the first part of the two-part series was evaluated here over global river basins. Across various climate zones, global-scale...

The error characteristics of Global Positioning System (GPS) radio occultation (RO) measurement errors are studied based on Satellite de Aplicaciones Cientificas-C (SAC-C) GPS...

This commentary addresses the essential science and return-on-investment related to radiation risks for airline passengers and crews. The focus is on two recent NASA efforts to...

In this study, the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University-National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) with three-dimensional variational data...

The authors introduce the National Center for Atmospheric Research's Early-Career Faculty Innovator Program and present lessons learned about advancing interdisciplinary and...

A continuous flow diffusion chamber (CFDC) was used to measure ice formation by cloud particle residuals during the Cirrus Regional Study of Tropical Anvils and Cirrus Layers-...

Among the more than 20 ground-based FTIR (Fourier transform infrared) stations currently operating around the globe, only a few have provided formaldehyde (HCHO) total column...

We evaluate the instantaneous radiative forcing (IRF) of tropospheric ozone predicted by four state-of-the-art global chemistry climate models (AM2-Chem, CAM-Chem, ECHAM5-MOZ,...

The primary emphasis for this report is given to describing the data sets that are available for meteorological research. Conventional instrumental data and satellite data are...

The Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) experiment produced 18 000 h of turbulence data from the atmospheric surface layer over sea ice while the ice camp drifted...
