We examine the response of the Community Earth System Model Versions 1 and 2 (CESM1 and CESM2) to abrupt quadrupling of atmospheric CO2 concentrations (4xCO2) and to 1% annually...

Numerical models are crucial to understand and/or predict past and future soil organic carbon dynamics. For those models aiming at prediction, validation is a critical step to...

The representation of the Tropical Tropopause Layer (TTL) in 13 different Chemistry Climate Models (CCMs) designed to represent the stratosphere is analyzed. Simulations for...

Analysis of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) measurements for five years shows significant longitudinal variations in the winter subtropical upper tropospheric relative...

In early May of 2017, a flight campaign was conducted over Caddo Lake, Texas, to test the ability of Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry (GNSS-R) to detect water...

This work advances a unified approach to process-based hydrologic modeling to enable controlled and systematic evaluation of multiple model representations (hypotheses) of...

A new type of hydrocarbon rocket engine is expected to power a fleet of suborbital rockets for commercial and scientific purposes in coming decades. A global climate model...

Energy exchanges between large-scale ocean currents and mesoscale eddies play an important role in setting the large-scale ocean circulation but are not fully captured in...

This paper presents for the first time evidence showing nonmigrating tidal variations in the mesospheric ozone (O₃) derived from the Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband...

Tropical instability vortices (TIVs) have a major influence on the physics and biogeochemistry of the equatorial Pacific. Using an eddy-resolving configuration of the Community...

Probabilistic projections of future climate change for a range of CO2 stabilization profiles intended for the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate...

The North American Monsoon (NAM) system is an annual weather pattern that brings summer rains to the dry regions of the United States southwest and northwestern Mexico. Broader...

A coupled global numerical simulation (conducted with the Community Earth System Model) is used in conjunction with satellite remote sensing observations to examine the role of...

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) is a key source of ambient ultrafine particles that may contribute substantially to the global production of cloud condensation nuclei...

The National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmosphere Model (version 3.5) coupled with the Morrison–Gettelman two-moment cloud microphysics scheme is employed to...

The magnitude and persistence of land carbon (C) pools influence long-term climate feedbacks. Interactive ecological processes influence land C pools and our understanding of...

A significant shift from cooler to warmer tropical Pacific sea surface temperatures (SSTs), part of a pattern of basinwide SST anomalies involved with a transition to the...

The NASA LIS/WRF-Hydro system is a coupled modeling framework that combines the modeling and data assimilation (DA) capabilities of the NASA Land Information System (LIS) with...

Upper atmospheric neutral winds and temperature have been observed by the Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) which was installed at Jang Bogo Station (JBS), Antarctica, in 2014....

Land Surface Models (LSMs) are essential to reproduce biophysical processes modulated by vegetation and to predict the future evolution of the land-climate system. To assess the...
