We use the flux-transport dynamo prediction scheme introduced by Dikpati, de Toma, and Gilman (Geophys. Res. Lett. 33, L05102, 2006) to make separate simulations and predictions...

Projections of future climate change partly depend on the assumptions made for future emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). These emissions are typically represented through an...

In this paper, we examine the mode of dynamo action in the implicit large-eddy magnetohydrodynamical simulation of solar convection reported upon in Ghizaru et al. Motivated by...

Weather is the archetype for chaotic dynamical system. As such, improvements, updates, and modifications to large scale climate simulation demand there be quality checks in...

Earth’s upper-level jet streams primarily flow in the eastward direction. They often exhibit a north-south component or waviness connected to extreme weather at the...

Although cloud-affected satellite observations are heavily used for nowcasting applications, their use in regional data assimilation is very limited despite possible benefits...

Geovisualizations play a central role in communicating hurricane storm surge risks to the public by connecting information about the hazard to a place. Meanwhile, people connect...

Improved methods for identifying species at risk are needed to strengthen climate change vulnerability assessments, as current estimates indicate that up to one million species...

The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) envisions a world "that uses sound, relevant, and timely climate science to ensure a more resilient present and sustainable future...

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are elongated areas of pronounced atmospheric water vapor transport that play an important role in the hydrological cycle over North America during...

A high-resolution simulation of a thermal vortex ring is analysed from the point of view of the vortex dynamics. A power-spectrum analysis of vortex-ring sections suggests that...

The sensitivity of regional air quality model to various lateral and top boundary conditions is studied at 2 scales: a 60 km domain covering the whole USA and a 12 km domain...

Over the past 40 years, anthropogenic aerosols have been substantially decreasing over Europe and the United States owing to pollution control measures, whereas they have...

In recent decades, three major volcanic eruptions of different intensity have occurred (Mount Agung in 1963, El Chich oacute;n in 1982 and Mount Pinatubo in 1991), with reported...

The long-term response of Greenland's peripheral glaciers to climate change is widely undocumented. Here we use historical aerial photographs and satellite imagery to document...

Atmospheric rivers are important transport vehicles for Earth’s water cycle. Using a high-resolution, eddy-resolving Earth System Model, atmospheric river impacts on the upper...

The objective of this study is to understand rainfall processes over tropical islands by identifying synoptic conditions that influence the diurnal cycle of rainfall over...

On 19-21 July 2016, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Ames Research Center and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) organized and...

We introduce University of Texas - GLObal Building heights for Urban Studies (UT-GLOBUS), a dataset providing building heights and urban canopy parameters (UCPs) for more than...

Long-standing interpretations of the Last Glacial Maximum (21,000 +/- 2000 years ago) in Australia suggest that the period was extremely cold and arid, during which the Indo-...
