Assimilation of wind speed and direction observations: Results from real...
The assimilation of wind observations in the form of speed and direction (asm_sd) by the Weather Research and Forecasting Model Data Assimilation System (WRFDA) was performed...- publication PDF

Separating dynamic and thermodynamic impacts of climate change on daytime...
Climate change affects the dynamics and thermodynamics of moist convection. Changes in the dynamics concern, for instance, an increase of convection strength due to increases of...- publication PDF

Investigating controls on sea ice algal production using E3SMv1.1-BGC
We present the analysis of global sympagic primary production (PP) from 300 years of pre-industrial and historical simulations of the E3SMv1.1-BGC model. The model includes a...- publication PDF

Economic and biophysical limits to seaweed farming for climate change mitigation
Net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions targets are driving interest in opportunities for biomass-based negative emissions and bioenergy, including from marine sources such as...- publication PDF

A wavelet-based approach to streamflow event identification and modeled...
Streamflow timing errors (in the units of time) are rarely explicitly evaluated but are useful for model evaluation and development. Wavelet-based approaches have been shown to...- publication PDF

Demonstration of a combined differential absorption and high spectral...
This work presents the first demonstration of atmospheric temperature measurement using the differential absorption lidar (DIAL) technique. While DIAL is routinely used to...- publication PDF

Systematic patterns in land precipitation due to convection in neighboring...
The land-sea contrast in the Maritime Continent (MC) has been found to influence the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). However, the specific contribution from individual islands...- publication PDF

Impact of errors in the downwelling irradiances on simulations of snow water...
The forcing irradiances (downwelling shortwave and longwave irradiances) are the primary drivers of snowmelt; however, in complex terrain, few observations, the use of estimated...- publication PDF

Asteroseismic constraints on diffusion in white dwarf envelopes
The asteroseismic analysis of white dwarfs allows us to peer below their photospheres and determine their internal structure. At similar to 28 000K EC20058-5234 is the hottest...- publication PDF

Tropical atmospheric Madden-Julian Oscillation: A strongly nonlinear free...
The Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO), a planetary-scale eastward-propagating coherent structure with periods of 30-60 days, is a prominent manifestation of intraseasonal...- publication PDF

Identification of external influences on temperatures in California
We use nine different observational datasets to estimate California-average temperature trends during the periods 1950-1999 and 1915-2000. Observed results are compared to...- publication PDF

Enhanced snow absorption and albedo reduction by dust-snow internal mixing:...
We extend a stochastic aerosol-snow albedo model to explicitly simulate dust internally/externally mixed with snow grains of different shapes and for the first time quantify the...- publication PDF
