Continental North America has been found to be a carbon (C) sink over recent decades by multiple studies employing a variety of estimation approaches. However, several key...

Although differences exist between seasonal- and decadal-scale climate variability, predictability, and prediction, investment in observations, prediction systems, and decision...

Changes in the Brewer‐Dobson circulation (BDC) in response to increasing CO 2 concentrations can arise from the direct effect of radiative cooling in the stratosphere or...

Ice supersaturation (ISS) is the prerequisite condition for cirrus cloud formation. To examine multiscale dynamics' influences on ISS formation, we analyze in situ aircraft...

During a classic heat wave with record high temperatures and poor air quality from July 18 to 23, 2011, an elevated reservoir of air pollutants was observed over and downwind of...

The Community Land Model (CLM) can simulate planting and harvesting of crops but does not include effects of cultivation on soil carbon decomposition. The biogeochemistry model...

This study investigated the microphysical responses to seeding giant aerosol particles and supersaturation fluctuations. A Lagrangian-particle-based direct numerical simulation...

In contrast to dominant interannual time-scale variability in other ocean basins, the leading observed mode variability in the Atlantic is characterized as a basinwide seesaw-...

Natural carbon sinks currently absorb approximately half of the anthropogenic CO2 emitted by fossil fuel burning, cement production and land-use change. However, this airborne...

Magnetospheric substorms are a key manifestation of the transfer of energy from the solar wind to the Earth. Substorms consist of a loading of energy from the solar wind via...

Artificial Neural Network (ANN) has proven to be very successful in forecasting a variety of irregular magnetospheric/ionospheric processes like geomagnetic storms and...

A growing body of evidence suggests that multiple dynamo mechanisms can drive magnetic variability on different timescales, not only in the Sun but also in other stars. Many...

Climate simulations that consider injection into the atmosphere of 15,000 Tg of soot, the amount estimated to be present at the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary, produce what might...

The impact of sea state on air-sea momentum flux (or wind stress) is a poorly understood component of wind-wave interactions, particularly in high wind conditions. The wind...

We present a suite of new climate model experiment designs for the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP). This set of experiments, named GeoMIP6 (to be...

Stratospheric circulation is a critical part of the Arctic ozone cycle. Sudden stratospheric warming events (SSWs) manifest the strongest alteration of stratospheric dynamics....

Digital research data can only be managed and preserved over time through a sustained institutional commitment. Research data curation is a multi-faceted issue, requiring...

Analysis of a predecessor rain event (PRE) over the Straits of Florida ahead of Tropical Cyclone (TC) Isaac on 25 August 2012 is presented. This PRE is unique compared to...

Studies based on data from the past 25-45 years show that irradiance changes related to the 11-yr solar cycle affect the circulation of the upper troposphere in the subtropics...

The land-sea contrast in the Maritime Continent (MC) has been found to influence the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). However, the specific contribution from individual islands...
