Seminal evidence of a 2.5-Sol ultra‐fast Kelvin wave in Mars' middle and uppe...
The structure and dynamics of Mars' middle and upper atmosphere is significantly impacted by waves propagating from the lower atmosphere. Using concurrent temperature and... -
Turbulence in breaking mountain waves and atmospheric rotors estimated from a...
Atmospheric turbulence generated in flow over mountainous terrain is studied using airborne in situ and cloud radar measurements over the Medicine Bow Mountains in southeast... -
Evidence of nighttime production of organic nitrates during SEAC4RS, FRAPPÉ, ...
Organic nitrates (RONO2) are an important NOx sink. In warm, rural environments dominated by biogenic emissions, nocturnal NO3‐initiated production of RONO2 is competitive with... -
Exploring the impacts of physics and resolution on aqua-planet simulations fr...
The nonhydrostatic Model for Prediction Across Scales (NH-MPAS) provides a global framework to achieve high resolution using regional mesh refinement. Previous studies using the... -
Mechanisms for precipitation enhancement in a North American monsoon upper-tr...
Tropical upper-tropospheric troughs (TUTTs), transient summertime disturbances over the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, are also observed to frequently occur in the North American... -
Evolution of ozone pollution in China: What track will it follow?
Increasing surface ozone (O3) concentrations has emerged as a key air pollution problem in many urban regions worldwide in the last decade. A longstanding major issue in... -
Impacts of anthropogenic and natural sources on free tropospheric ozone over ...
Significant progress has been made in identifying the influence of different processes and emissions on the summertime enhancements of free tropospheric ozone (O₃) at northern... -
Blending of global and regional analyses with a spatial filter: Application t...
A blending method to merge the NCEP global analysis with the regional analysis from the WRF variational data assimilation system is implemented using a spatial filter for the... -
Equilibrium climate sensitivity estimated by equilibrating climate models
The methods to quantify equilibrium climate sensitivity are still debated. We collect millennial-length simulations of coupled climate models and show that the global mean... -
Short-term nonmigrating tide variability in the mesosphere, thermosphere, and...
The intraseasonal variability of the eastward propagating nonmigrating diurnal tide with zonal wave number 3 (DE3) during 2007 in the mesosphere, ionosphere, and thermosphere is... -
ULF wave analysis and radial diffusion calculation using a global MHD model f...
The 17 March 2015 St. Patrick's Day Storm is the largest geomagnetic storm to date of Solar Cycle 24, with a Dst of -223 nT. The magnetopause moved inside geosynchronous orbit... -
Allowances for evolving coastal flood risk under uncertain local sea-level rise
Estimates of future flood hazards made under the assumption of stationary mean sea level are biased low due to sea-level rise (SLR). However, adjustments to flood return levels... -
Robust responses of the Sahelian hydrological cycle to global warming
How the globally uniform component of sea surface temperature (SST) warming influences rainfall in the African Sahel remains insufficiently studied, despite mean SST warming... -
Dynamics and electrodynamics of an ultra‐fast kelvin wave (UFKW) packet in th...
Numerical experiments are performed using a suite of general circulation models that enable the interaction between a Kelvin wave packet and the ionosphere‐thermosphere (IT) to... -
Predictability and dynamics of tropical cyclone rapid intensification deduced...
Rapid intensification (RI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) remains one of the most challenging issues in TC prediction. This study investigates the predictability of RI, the... -
Time-splitting methods for elastic models using forward time schemes
Two time-splitting methods for integrating the elastic equations are presented. The methods are based on a third-order Runge-Kutta time scheme and the Crowley advection schemes.... -
Mirrored changes in Antarctic ozone and stratospheric temperature in the late...
Observed and modeled patterns of lower stratospheric seasonal trends in Antarctic ozone and temperature in the late 20th (1979-2000) and the early 21st (2000-2014) centuries are... -
Addressing the challenges of climate-driven community-led resettlement and si...
Presently coastal areas globally are becoming unviable, with people no longer able to maintain livelihoods and settlements due to, for example, increasing floods, storm surges,... -
Implementation of new diffusion/filtering operators in the CAM-FV dynamical core
Two new filtering/diffusion operators have been implemented in the Community Atmosphere Model finite-volume dynamical core (CAM-FV). First, a fourth-order divergence damping... -
Improvements to melting snow behavior in a bulk microphysics scheme
Snow falling into a melting layer will eventually consist of a fraction of meltwater and hence change its characteristics in terms of size, shape, density and fall speed. Most...
