Improved diagnosis of precipitation type with LightGBM machine learning
Existing precipitation-type algorithms have difficulty discerning the occurrence of freezing rain and ice pellets. These inherent biases are not only problematic in operational...- publication PDF

On the magnetic and energy characteristics of recurrent homologous jets from...
In this paper, we present the detailed analysis of recurrent homologous jets originating from an emerging negative magnetic flux at the edge of an active region. The observed...- publication PDF

Quantifying drivers of wild pig movement across multiple spatial and temporal scales
Background: The movement behavior of an animal is determined by extrinsic and intrinsic factors that operate at multiple spatio-temporal scales, yet much of our knowledge of...- publication PDF

Sensitivity of mountain wave drag estimates on separation methods and...
Internal gravity waves (GWs) are ubiquitous in the atmosphere, making significant contributions to the me-soscale motions. Since the majority of their spectrum is unresolved in...- publication PDF

Evershed and counter-evershed flows in sunspot MHD simulations
There have been a few reports in the literature of counter-Evershed flows observed in well-developed sunspot penumbrae, i.e., flows directed toward the umbra along penumbral...- publication PDF

An observationally based constraint on the water-vapor feedback
The increase in atmospheric concentrations of water vapor with global warming is a large positive feedback in the climate system. Thus, even relatively small errors in its...- publication PDF

Long-term variability and trends in the Agulhas Leakage and its impacts on...
Agulhas Leakage transports relatively warm and salty Indian Ocean waters into the Atlantic Ocean and as such is an important component of the global ocean circulation. These...- publication PDF

Impact of the vertical dynamics on the thermosphere at low and middle...
In this study, the influences of the electric fields at low and middle latitudes on the ionosphere and thermosphere are investigated by using the nonhydrostatic Global...- publication PDF

Multi-scale temporal variability of turbulent mixing during a Monsoon...
A process study using large-eddy simulations is carried out to explore the dominant 1-D processes that affect mixed layer (ML) properties during an event of summer Monsoon...- publication PDF

The Pacific-Atlantic seesaw and the Bering Strait
Paleo proxy data and previous modeling studies both indicate that the massive discharge of icebergs into the North Atlantic may have led to a (nearly) collapsed Atlantic...- publication PDF
