Significant 40–60 day intraseasonal variability in surface winds, sea level, and thermocline depth were observed in the tropical Atlantic during the Atlantic Niño year of...

Mineral dust is an important aerosol in the atmosphere and is known to reduce snow albedo upon deposition. Model predictions of dust deposition events in snow covered mountain...

Observations suggest that Mars was wet and warm during the late Noachian, which probably requires a dense CO₂ atmosphere. But would a dense CO₂ early Martian atmosphere have...

Intense upwelling during summer and convection in winter are believed to drive higher biological productivity in the Arabian Sea than in the Bay of Bengal. Although the Arabian...

Sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) are a major mode of variability of the winter stratosphere. In recent years, climate models have improved their ability to simulate SSWs....

Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are critical components of global energy and water cycles and significantly contribute to extreme weather events. However, projecting future...

Absorbing aerosols, like black carbon (BC), give rise to rapid adjustments, and the associated perturbation to the atmospheric temperature structure alters the cloud...

Air quality is closely associated with climate change via the biosphere because plants release large quantities of volatile organic compounds (VOC) that mediate both gaseous...

Effects of free-tropospheric thermodynamic properties and large-scale subsidence on the nocturnal growth of marine stratocumulus clouds are investigated through large-eddy...

A new hybrid, sigma-pressure vertical coordinate was recently added to the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model in an effort to reduce numerical noise in the model...

Dynamical downscaling is a crucial process for providing regional climate information for broad uses, using coarser-resolution global models to drive higher-resolution regional...

Gravity waves in the mesopause region (80 - 105 km) may induce perturbations in OH Meinal Band emissions at ∼87 km. These perturbations can be observed by ground-based OH...

A major impact of anthropogenic climate change is the crossing of tipping points, which may have severe consequences such as the complete mass loss of the Greenland ice sheet...

The North Equatorial Countercurrent (NECC) simulated by a coupled ocean-atmosphere model and its oceanic component have been investigated and compared against oceanographic...

In this study, we compare carbon monoxide (CO) products from the Measurements of Pollution in the Troposphere (MOPITT) and Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) and...

Fire is a global phenomenon and tightly interacts with the biosphere and climate. This study provides the first quantitative assessment and understanding of fire's influence on...

During the period 4-5-6 September 1974, several small-scale systems developed within the A-B ship array. One of these, on 5 September, was investigated by research aircraft on a...

Most prior field studies of new particle formation (NPF) have been performed at or near ground level, leaving many unanswered questions regarding the vertical extent of NPF. To...

A new monthly sea surface salinity (SSS) product calculated from profile data within the World Ocean Database (WOD) is compared and contrasted with Aquarius SSS, both standard...
