Forest dynamics and tree species composition vary substantially between Paleotropical and Neotropical forests, but these broad biogeographic regions are treated uniformly in...

Introduction: Associated fauna comprises most of the diversity of a coral reef and performs ecological func-tions essential to the reef's survival. Since Pocillopora corals...

Ionospheric F² region peak electron densities (NmF²) observed from 11 ionosonde stations in the East Asian-Australian sector from 1969 to 1986 have been used to investigate...

The NCAR Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with thermosphere and ionosphere eXtension (WACCM-X) v2.1 has been extended to include the neutral and ion-molecule chemistry...

Peer review holds a central place within the scientific communication system. Traditionally, research quality has been assessed by peer review of journal articles, conference...

We present three STEVE (strong thermal emission velocity enhancement) events in conjunction with Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions (THEMIS) in the magnetosphere...

Here we explore factors potentially linked to the enhanced major hurricane activity in the Atlantic Ocean during 2017. Using a suite of high-resolution model experiments, we...

Using timescales for the generation and depletion of water vapor, we predict aerosol sensitivity in clouds formed by homogeneous freezing. Our timescale analysis explains why...

In the mesosphere and lower thermosphere, diurnal tides are responsible for the dynamics and structures at low latitudes since they have largest amplitudes there. Based on the...

We examine the response of globally averaged precipitation to global warming-the hydrologic sensitivity (HS)-in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) multi-...

Avoiding the most serious climate change impacts will require informed policy decisions. This in turn will require information regarding the reduction of greenhouse gas...

The wind and temperature measurements from an unusually long period operation of the sodium lidar at Colorado State University (41°N, 105°W) around September equinox 2003...

Regional climate modeling using convection-permitting models (CPMs; horizontal grid spacing <4 km) emerges as a promising framework to provide more reliable climate...

The Victoria mode (VM) represents the second dominant mode (empirical orthogonal function, EOF2) of North Pacific variability, independent of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation and...

In arid and semiarid regions most of the solar radiation penetrates through the canopy and reaches the ground, and hence the turbulent exchange coefficient under canopy C-s...

The Blob was the early manifestation of the Northeast Pacific marine heat wave from 2013 to 2016. While the upper ocean temperature in the Blob has been well described, the...

Understanding the present water budget in Himalayan Basins is a challenge due to poor in situ coverage, incomplete or unreliable records, and the limitations of coarse...

What humankind actually requires is a climate change -- a cultural climate change, a change in our thinking and actions -- if we are to have any reasonable expectation that we...

With limited computational resources, there is a need for computationally frugal models. This is particularly the case for atmospheric sciences, which have long relied on either...

The Diebold-Mariano test for predictive accuracy has been used widely and adapted for economic forecasts, but has not seen much activity in weather forecast verification. The...
