The differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) method is a well-known remote sensing technique that is nowadays widely used for measurements of atmospheric trace gases,...

We discuss the significance of potential vorticity in the thermosphere and quantify the relative contributions of momentum forcing and heating to its total time derivative in...

A large-scale model of ocean dynamics finds intermittent behavior that may have implications for how the ocean's energy budget is assessed.

The ground-based velocity track display (GBVTD) technique was developed to estimate the primary circulations of landfalling tropical cyclones (TCs) from single-Doppler radar...

To investigate day-to-day variability in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT), an idealized simulation of a six-day westward propagating zonal wave number-1 planetary...

Since the 1970s, land cover in central Argentina has shifted away from perennial crops and grasses toward annual crops, largely soy. In this study, we use observations and...

The Caribbean is a region of lush vegetation, beaches, active volcanoes, and significant mountain ranges, all of which create a natural aesthetic that is recognized globally....

In this report the methodology and execution of the Venezuela meteorological and hydrological experiments of 1969 and 1972 are discussed. The radiation balance and water balance...

Particulate matter (PM) mass concentrations, seasonal cycles, source sector, and source region contributions in Central Asia (CA) are analyzed for the period April 2008-July...

We introduce novel methodology to examine the ability of six regional climate models (RCMs) in the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP) ensemble...

The climate impacts of the observed Atlantic multidecadal variability(AMV) are investigated using the GFDL CM2.1 and the NCAR CESM1 coupled climate models. The model North...

Observations suggest that Mars was wet and warm during the late Noachian, which probably requires a dense CO₂ atmosphere. But would a dense CO₂ early Martian atmosphere have...

The Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F15 satellite frequently observes an unusually high level of local Poynting flux when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF)...

Alternative meshes of the sphere and adaptive mesh refinement could be immensely beneficial for weather and climate forecasts, but it is not clear how mesh refinement should be...

Reconstructions of past climate behavior often describe prominent anomalous periods that are not necessarily captured in climate simulations. Here, we illustrate the contrast...

Water flow within and beneath glaciers and ice sheets influences ice dynamics and is relevant for practical applications such as modeling outburst floods from mountain glaciers....

This study aims to create insight in how Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) perform in describing the climate forcing by non-CO₂ gases and aerosols. The simple climate models...

By injecting SO(2)into the stratosphere at four latitudes (30 degrees, 15 degrees N/S), it might be possible not only to reduce global mean surface temperature but also to...
