The tropospheric response to sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) is analyzed in an idealized model setup regarding the respective roles of planetary-scale and synoptic-scale...

his paper presents an analysis of data from the magnetometers on board the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F-15, F-16, F-17, and F-18 satellites and the Iridium...

Context. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a manifestation of the Sun’s eruptive nature. They can have a great impact on Earth, but also on human activity in space and on the...

The Helioseismic Magnetic Imager (HMI) has made full-disk vector magnetic field measurements of the Sun with cadence of 12 minutes. The three-component solar surface magnetic...

An ensemble of initialized decadal prediction (DP) experiments using the Community Climate System Model, version 4 (CCSM4) shows considerable skill at forecasting changes in...

The diffuse radiation fertilization effect-the increase in plant productivity in the presence of higher diffuse radiation (K-down arrow,K-d)-is an important yet understudied...

This paper uses the "Super Outbreak" of 2011 as a case study to examine the potential gaps between the dissemination of severe weather warnings and the public's behavioral...

This study examines gravity waves that develop at the boundary-layer capping inversion in the lee of a mountain ridge. By comparing different linear wave theories, we show that...

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...

We examined climate trends in the northern North American Great Plains (NNAGP) from 1970 to 2015, a period that aligns with widespread land-use changes in this globally...

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...

The 2016 austral spring was characterized by the lowest Southern Hemisphere (SH) sea ice extent seen in the satellite record (1979 to present) and coincided with anomalously...

This study examines the biases, intermodel spread, and intermodel range of surface air temperature (SAT) across the Antarctic ice sheet and Southern Ocean in 26 structurally...

Fair-weather data from the May-June H?2002 International H?O Project (IHOP_2002) 46-km eastern flight track in southeast Kansas are compared to simulations using the advanced...

Vortex dynamics often involves a wide range of strongly non-linearly interacting scales, and many situations arise in which relatively few aspects of the spatial configuration...

Current and previous thermospheric remote sensing missions use N-2 Lyman-Birge-Hopfield (LBH) band dayglow emission measurements to retrieve line-of-sight thermospheric...

Clouds and aerosols, ubiquitously embedded in turbulent flows, are central to the prediction of weather and climate. The purpose of the workshop described here was to explore...

The Palaeoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project has expanded to include a model intercomparison for the mid-Pliocene warm period (3.29 to 2.97 million yr ago). This project...

Inconsistencies in the Eocene climates of East Asia have been revealed in both geological studies and simulations. Several earlier reconstructions showed an arid zonal band in...

A new remote sensing retrieval of ice cloud microphysics has been developed for use with millimeter-wave radar from ground-, air-, or space-based sensors. Developed from an...
