Annual cycle in upper-ocean heat content and the global energy budget
As a major component of Earth's energy budget, ocean heat content (OHC) plays a vital role in buffering climate change. The annual cycle is the most prominent change in OHC but...- publication PDF

An updated Antarctic melt record through 2009 and its linkages to...
A 30-year minimum Antarctic snowmelt record occurred during austral summer 2008-2009 according to spaceborne microwave observations for 1980-2009. Strong positive phases of both...- publication PDF

STEREO quadrature observations of coronal dimming at the onset of mini-CMEs
Context. Using unique quadrature observations with the two STEREO spacecraft, we investigate coronal dimmings at the onset of small-scale eruptions. In CMEs they are believed to...- publication PDF

Dynamical tropopause based on isentropic potential vorticity gradients
Since its inception, the dynamical tropopause based on potential vorticity (PV) is identified by the PV gradient on isentropes. Conceptually, significant isentropic gradients...- publication PDF
