We synthesize estimates of the contemporary net air-sea CO₂ flux on the basis of an inversion of interior ocean carbon observations using a suite of 10 ocean general...

This study develops a general method to evaluate the contributions of localized urbanization and global climate change to long-term urban land surface temperature (ULST) change....

We describe a method for obtaining single-path phase delays from GPS double differences. The resulting "zero differences" (ZDs) can be used for remote sensing of atmospheric...

One way to adapt to and mitigate current and future water scarcity is to manage and store water more efficiently. Reservoirs act as critical buffers to ensure agricultural and...

Context. The photometric time series of solar-like stars can exhibit rotational modulation, that is, brightness variations due to active regions co-rotating with the stellar...

The influence of antecedent soil moisture on North American monsoon system (NAMS) precipitation variability was explored using the MM5 mesoscale model coupled with the Variable...

Based on the measurements from Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F12, F13, and F15 satellites in 1995-2014, we report significant hemispheric asymmetries in...

The characteristics of atmospheric tides in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere region are investigated using radio occultation (RO) measurements performed by the...

The assumption of gradient wind balance is customarily made so as to derive the theoretical upper-bound intensity of a mature tropical cyclone. Emanuel's theory of hurricane...

Results from the fully and biogeochemically coupled simulations in which CO2 increases at a rate of 1 % yr(-1) (1pctCO2) from its preindustrial value are analyzed to quantify...

This paper presents a review of the software currently used in climate modelling in general and in CMIP5 in particular to couple the numerical codes representing the different...

Precipitation changes in full response to CO2 increase are widely studied but confidence in future projections remains low. Mechanistic understanding of the direct radiative...

Several months of regional convection-permitting forecasts using two microphysical schemes (WSM6 and Thompson) are evaluated to determine the accuracy of the simulated...

We use nine different observational datasets to estimate California-average temperature trends during the periods 1950-1999 and 1915-2000. Observed results are compared to...

Convection is the main contributor to heavy rainfall over China's Yangtze-Huai River Basin (YHRB) during Meiyu season; however, the mechanisms of convection initiation (CI)...

Lenticular wave clouds are used as a natural laboratory to estimate the linear and mass growth rates of ice particles at temperatures from -20° to -32°C and to characterize...

This study explores the use of nonuniform fast spherical Fourier transforms on meteorological data that are arbitrarily distributed on the sphere. The applicability of this...

Global quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) at higher spatial and temporal resolutions are critical for the development of applications that address a variety of...

Homogeneous freezing of supercooled droplets occurs in convective systems in low and midlatitudes. This droplet-freezing process leads to the formation of a large amount of...
