Proceedings of the 2021 Improving Scientific Software Conference
The Software Engineering Assembly (SEA) is a loosely structured group of software engineers and scientists who write scientific software, mostly but not only at NCAR and mostly... -
Near real‐time global plasma irregularity monitoring by FORMOSAT‐7/COSMIC‐2
This study presents initial results of the ionospheric scintillation in the F layer using the S4 index derived from the radio occultation experiment (RO-S4) on... -
Why do models overestimate surface ozone in the Southeast United States?
Ozone pollution in the Southeast US involves complex chemistry driven by emissions of anthropogenic nitrogen oxide radicals (NOx = NO + NO2) and biogenic isoprene. Model... -
Multivariate spatial analysis of climate change projections
The goal of this work is to characterize the annual temperature for regional climate models. Of interest for impacts studies, these profiles and the potential change in these... -
Benchmarking and parameter sensitivity of physiological and vegetation dynami...
Plant functional traits determine vegetation responses to environmental variation, but variation in trait values is large, even within a single site. Likewise, uncertainty in... -
Improving signal statistics using a regression ground clutter filter. Part 1:...
Ground clutter filtering is an important and necessary step for quality control of ground-based weather radars. In this paper, ground clutter mitigation is addressed using a... -
Predictor-weighting strategies for probabilistic wind power forecasting with ...
Unlike deterministic forecasts, probabilistic predictions provide estimates of uncertainty, which is an additional value for decision-making. Previous studies have proposed the... -
The setup of the MesoVICT project
Recent advancements in numerical weather prediction (NWP) and the enhancement of model resolution have created the need for more robust and informative verification methods. In... -
On the contribution of quiet-sun magnetism to solar irradiance variations: Co...
While the quiet-Sun magnetic field shows only little variation with the solar cycle, long-term variations cannot be completely ruled out from first principles. We investigate... -
Using random forests to diagnose aviation turbulence
Atmospheric turbulence poses a significant hazard to aviation, with severe encounters costing airlines millions of dollars per year in compensation, aircraft damage, and delays... -
Photospheric high-frequency acoustic power excess in sunspot umbra: Signature...
We present observational evidence for the presence of MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) waves in the solar photosphere deduced from SOHO/MDI(Solar and Heliospheric Observatory/Michelson... -
Freshwater flux and ocean chlorophyll produce nonlinear feedbacks in the trop...
Various forcing and feedback processes coexist in the tropical Pacific, which can modulate El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). In particular, large covariabilities in... -
Climate impacts of large-scale wind farms as parameterized in a global climat...
The local, regional, and global climate impacts of a large-scale global deployment of wind power in regionally high densities over land are investigated for a 60-yr period. Wind... -
Integrated land ecosystem-atmosphere processes study (iLEAPS) assessment of g...
Long-term, continuous observations are needed for Earth system investigations and evaluation of simulations. The atmospheric and ecological communities have independently... -
Analysis of tropical cyclone precipitation using an object-based algorithm
A recently developed object identification algorithm is applied to multisensor precipitation estimates from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM 3B42) to detect and... -
Case studies for initialized decadal hindcasts and predictions for the Pacifi...
Case studies involving notable past decadal climate variability are analyzed for the mid-1970s climate shift, when the tropical Pacific warmed over a decade and globally...
