Glacier preservation doubled by limiting warming to 1.5°C versus 2.7°C
Glaciers adapt slowly to changing climatic conditions, with long-term implications for sea-level rise and water supply. Using eight glacier models, we simulated global glacier...- publication PDF

Projections of future summertime ozone over the U.S.
We use a regional coupled chemistry-transport model to assess changes in surface ozone over the summertime U.S. between present and a 2050 future time period at high spatial...- publication PDF

Acyl peroxy nitrates link oil and natural gas emissions to high ozone...
We present measurements of ozone (O-3), acyl peroxy nitrates (APNs), and a suite of O-3 precursors made at the Boulder Atmospheric Observatory in Erie, Colorado, during summer...- publication PDF

Influence of convective adjustment time scale on the tropical transient activity
The influence of convective adjustment time scale (Ï) in simulating the tropical transient activity is examined using the NCAR-Community Atmosphere Model (CAM). In the default...- publication PDF

Artificial plasma cave in the low-latitude ionosphere results from the radio...
Previous studies report unexpected electron density reductions, termed "plasma caves," located underneath the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) crests. A radio occultation...- publication PDF

Bering Strait throughflow and the thermohaline circulation
In this study, we employ a global coupled climate model to show that the Bering Strait is important to the variations of the thermohaline circulation. Three experiments are...- publication PDF

Last-millennium volcanic forcing and climate response using SO
Climate variability in the last millennium (past 1000 years) is dominated by the effects of large-magnitude volcanic eruptions; however, a long-standing mismatch exists...- publication PDF

GEM-CEDAR challenge: Poynting flux at DMSP and modeled Joule heat
Poynting flux into the ionosphere measures the electromagnetic energy coming from the magnetosphere. This energy flux can vary greatly between quiet times and geomagnetic active...- publication PDF

Spatial hierarchical modeling of precipitation extremes from a regional climate model
The goal of this work is to characterize the extreme precipitation simulated by a regional climate model (RCM) over its spatial domain. For this purpose, we develop a Bayesian...- publication PDF

Quiescent prominence dynamics observed with the Hinode solar optical...
Hinode/Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) observations reveal two new dynamic modes in quiescent solar prominences: large-scale (20-50 Mm) "arches" or "bubbles" that "inflate" from...- publication PDF

Improved cloud-phase determination of low-level liquid and mixed-phase...
The unambiguous retrieval of cloud phase from polarimetric lidar observations is dependent on the assumption that only cloud scattering processes affect polarization...- publication PDF

Climatology of Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere residual circulations and...
In the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) region, residual circulations driven by gravity wave breaking and dissipation significantly impact constituent distribution and...- publication PDF

Evaluating a reservoir parametrization in the vector-based global routing...
Human-controlled reservoirs have a large influence on the global water cycle. While global hydrological models use generic parameterizations to model dam operations, the...- publication PDF

A scheme for representing aromatic secondary organic aerosols in chemical...
We present a new volatility basis set (VBS) representation of aromatic secondary organic aerosol (SOA) for atmospheric chemistry models by fitting a statistical oxidation model...- publication PDF

Improvement of salinity representation in an ensemble coupled data...
The scarcity of salinity observations prior to the Argo period makes it tremendously difficult to estimate ocean states. By using the so-called pseudo salinity profiles...- publication PDF
