The adequate simulation of internal climate variability is key for our understanding of climate as it underpins efforts to attribute historical events, predict on seasonal and...

Fire is an integral Earth System process that interacts with climate in multiple ways. Here we assessed the parametrization of fires in the Community Land Model (CLM-CN) and...

Bias correction of reanalysis-based wind stress using scatterometer derived equivalent neutral wind has been a common practice in producing the forcing datasets used in recent...

This study investigates a physical basis for heterogeneity in hydrological changes, which suggests a greater detectability in wet than dry regions. Wet regions are those where...

While climate change mitigation targets necessarily concern maximum mean state changes, understanding impacts and developing adaptation strategies will be largely contingent on...

Interannual variability of tropospheric moisture and temperature are key aspects of Earth's climate. In this study, monthly mean specific humidity (q) and temperature (T)...

The properties of hurricanes directly influence storm surges; however, the implications of projected changes to the climate are unclear. Here, we simulate the storm surges of...

Information relevant for most hydrologic applications cannot be obtained directly from the native-scale outputs of climate models. As a result the climate model output must be...

We characterize high-frequency variability of sea ice extent (HFVSIE) in observations and climate models. We find that HFVSIE in models is biased low with respect to...

We measured light absorption in 42 marine snow, sea ice, seawater, brine, and frost flower samples collected during the OASIS field campaign between February 27 and April 15,...

Oxidation of monoterpenes (C10H16) by nitrate radicals (NO3) constitutes an important source of atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and organonitrates. However,...

The interaction of the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere is complex, and the phenomenology of the interaction is very different for interplanetary coronal mass ejections...

Under assumptions of horizontal homogeneity and isotropy, one may derive relations between rotational or divergent kinetic energy spectra and velocities along one-dimensional...

In this study, the mass densities from Challenging Minisatellite Payload and Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment satellites and the simulation results from the Thermosphere...

The southwest vortex (SWV) is a meso-a-scale cyclonic low pressure system originating in southwest China. It is a high-impact precipitation-generating weather system in this...

Accurately interpreting three dimensional (3D) vector quantities output as solutions to high-resolution computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations can be an arduous, time-...

A detailed examination is made in both observations and the Community Earth System Model (CESM) of relationships among top-of-atmosphere radiation, water vapor, temperatures,...

An in-depth assessment of the measurement uncertainties of the NCAR air motion systems characterizes this capability and is presented as a useful tool for determining wind data...

We report a possible occurrence of horizontal roll vortices over the Adriatic Sea during the bora wind. The National Center for Atmospheric Research Electra aircraft measured...
