Black carbon vertical profiles strongly affect its radiative forcing uncertainty
The impact of black carbon (BC) aerosols on the global radiation balance is not well constrained. Here twelve global aerosol models are used to show that at least 20% of the...- publication PDF

Summer high‐wind events and phytoplankton productivity in the Arctic Ocean
At the base of the marine food web, phytoplankton are an essential component of the Arctic Ocean ecosystem and carbon cycle. Especially after sea ice retreats and light becomes...- publication PDF

Comparing adaptive prior and posterior inflation for ensemble filters using...
Sampling errors and model errors are major drawbacks from which ensemble Kalman filters suffer. Sampling errors arise because of the use of a limited ensemble size, while model...- publication PDF
