Hydropluviometric variability in non-Sahelian West Africa: Case of the...
The Koliba/Corubal River watershed is poorly documented due to the hydrometric measurements shutdown and gaps in the very short hydropluviometric timeseries. The purpose of this...- publication PDF

Changing seasonal sea ice predictor relationships in a changing Arctic climate
Seasonal predictions of Arctic sea ice conditions often rely on statistical relationships of a set of predictors that have shown skill for historical conditions. However, with...- publication PDF

History of the Greenland ice sheet: Paleoclimatic insights
Paleoclimatic records show that the Greenland Ice Sheet consistently has lost mass in response to warming, and grown in response to cooling. Such changes have occurred even at...- publication PDF

Global Distribution of Total Cloud Cover and Cloud Type Amounts Over Land
This is the third of a series of atlases to result from a study of the global cloud climatology from ground-based observations. The first two atlases (NCAR/TN-201+STR and...- publication PDF

Penetration of dynamo-generated magnetic fields into the Sun's radiative interior
Any large-scale magnetic fields present in solar/stellar radiative interiors have so far been thought to be primordial or residuals from extinct dynamos. We show that a regular...- publication PDF
