A grand challenge from the wind energy industry is to provide reliable forecasts on mountain winds several hours in advance at microscale (similar to 100 m) resolution. This...

Identifying, detecting, and localizing extreme weather events is a crucial first step in understanding how they may vary under different climate change scenarios. Pattern...

Scientific and societal interest in the relationship between the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and U.S. East Coast sea level has intensified over the past...

Based on Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM) simulations, Pedatella and Liu (2012) recently demonstrated that significant interannual variability occurs in...

Uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) observations collected during the 2018 Lower Atmospheric Process Studies at Elevation—a Remotely Piloted Aircraft Team Experiment (LAPSE-RATE)...

Data assimilation is the process by which observations are combined with short-range NWP model output to produce an analysis of the state of the atmosphere at a specified time....

The Taiwan Area Mesoscale Experiment, TAMEX, is a research program undertaken by scientist from the Republic of China and the United States to improve, through enhanced...

Cloud representation is one of the largest uncertainties in the current weather and climate models. In this article, the observations and modeling of the radiative effect on...

Characteristics of, and fundamental differences between, the radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE) climate states following the Radiative-Convective Equilibrium Model...

The goal of this technical note is to present a set of synoptic observations from the Mauna Loa series of K-coronameters in polar projection format. The initial motivation for...

Report on reducing spectral data to obtain useful measures of stellar activity which includes topics such as the Echelle Spectrograph Stellar Spectra, a summary of Solar...

An analysis of the reliability of using dropsonde profile data to compute surface flux coefficients of momentum and heat is performed. Monin-Obukhov (MO) similarity theory forms...

In the spring of 1983, the staff of the MLSO was asked by Mr. Morgan Windsor of NASA to provide new real-time scientific support to rocket experimenters at the White Sands...

Early Global Horizontal Sounding Technique (GHOST) balloon tests have resulted in valuable upper air wind data, particularly in the data-poor mid-latitudes over southern...

This work compares the solar power forecasting performance of tree-based methods that include implicit regime-based models to explicit regime separation methods that utilize...

The meteorological characteristics of cloudy atmospheric columns can be very different from their clear counterparts. Thus, when a forecast ensemble is uncertain about the...

We have used the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model to produce a small (three-member) ensemble of simulations of the period 1950 - 2003. Comparison of model results...

A multi-step decision support process was developed and applied to the physically and legally complex case of water diversions from the Upper Colorado River across the...

Water vapor in the stratosphere is primarily controlled by temperatures in the tropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. However, the direct impact of deep convection...

Light-moderate precipitation is projected to decrease whereas heavy precipitation may increase under greenhouse gas (GHG)-induced global warming, while atmospheric convective...
