Variability in climate exerts a strong influence on vegetation productivity (gross primary productivity; GPP), and therefore has a large impact on the land carbon sink. However,...

We investigate the behavior of clouds during rapid sea ice loss events (RILEs) in the Arctic, as simulated by multiple ensemble projections of the 21st century in the Community...

The Common Community Physics Package (CCPP) is a collection of physical atmospheric parameterizations for use in Earth system models and a framework that couples the physics to...

Visualizations enable us to detect patterns, time-evolving features, and trends in complex datasets that might not be obvious by looking at the raw data. The visual exploration...

Previous studies have suggested that tropical cyclones (TCs) in deformation steering flows can be associated with large position errors and uncertainty. The goal of this study...

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) often generate extreme precipitation, with AR temperature strongly influencing hydrologic impacts by altering the timing and magnitude of runoff. Long-...

Uncertainties remain about the spatial pattern and magnitude of the biophysical effects of deforestation. In particular, a diurnal asymmetry in the magnitude and sign of the...

The long and almost continuous observations by Kepler show clear evidence of a granulation background signal in a large sample of stars, which is interpreted as the surface...

Pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) are wildfire-generated convective clouds that can inject smoke directly into the stratosphere. PyroCb have been tracked for years, yet their apparent...

The purpose of this manual entitled, "NetCDF User's Guide: An Interface for Data Access", is to allow the user to create, access, and share scientific data in a form that is...

In a recent study, the authors performed numerical simulations of moist nearly neutral flows over a ridge using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model in a regime...

This document, compiled during the fall of 1973 for the NCAR Aerosol Project, represents a relatively thorough listing of literature sources dealing with marine aerosols....

Recently available satellite observations from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) are used to calculate relative humidity in the troposphere. The observations illustrate...

The Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) experiences high loadings of atmospheric aerosols from anthropogenic sources, biomass burning and wind-blown dust. This paper uses a...

There is great interest in understanding how the thermosphere-ionosphere system responds to geomagnetic storms. New insights are possible using the new generation of fully...

In this study, the ionospheric electron density profiles retrieved from radio occultation measurements of the Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere and...

The period of 6-11 September 2017 was an active period in which multiple solar flares and a major geomagnetic storm occurred. The two largest flares, an X9.3 and an X8.2, were a...

We present a detailed spectroscopic study of 93 solar-type stars that are targets of the NASA/Kepler mission and provide detailed chemical composition of each target. We find...

Most studies of the response of terrestrial vegetation to climate change during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) have focused on individual sites and sections. To get...

The effect of solar proton events on the daytime O-2 and OH airglows and ozone and atomic oxygen concentrations in the mesosphere is studied using data from the Sounding of the...
