The transport of air from the planetary boundary layer (PBL) into the Asian Summer Monsoon anticyclone is investigated using backward trajectories initiated within the anti-...

An important environmental control of both tropical cyclone intensity and genesis is vertical wind shear. One hypothesized pathway by which vertical shear affects tropical...

The development of atmospheric mesoscale models from their early origins in the 1970's until the present day is described. Evolution has occurred in dynamical and physics...

Airborne vertically profiling Doppler radar data and output from a similar to 1-km-grid-resolution numerical simulation are used to examine how relatively small-scale terrain...

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...

Large areal fires, such as those ignited following a nuclear detonation, can inject smoke into the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. Detailed fire simulations allow for...

The long-term response of Greenland's peripheral glaciers to climate change is widely undocumented. Here we use historical aerial photographs and satellite imagery to document...

This study investigates the long-term variations of tropical cyclones (TCs) that affected Taiwan during 1970 - 2014 using wavelet analysis of TC activity, and identifies the...

Calibration is an essential step for improving the accuracy of simulations generated using hydrologic models. A key modeling decision is selecting the performance metric to be...

This document discusses selected aspects of the NCAR computer hardware systems and some of the considerations involved in choosing data formats. It also describe some of the...

In this report E. Yasukawa writes the description for the newest system integrated into the Coronal Dynamics Project's experiment system, located at the Mauna Loa Solar...

Ground-level ozone (O 3 ) pollution is a persistent environmental concern, even in regions that have made efforts to reduce emissions. This study focuses on the state of...

On 2015 September 3, the Chromospheric Lyman-Alpha SpectroPolarimeter (CLASP) successfully measured the linear polarization produced by scattering processes in the hydrogen Ly...

Projections of future climate change play a fundamental role in improving understanding of the climate system as well as characterizing societal risks and response options. The...

The Multifluid-Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry (MFLFM) global simulation model incorporating an ionospheric cusp O⁺ outflow model based on an empirical relation between downward DC...

Currently, the ability to use remotely sensed soil moisture to investigate linkages between the water and energy cycles and for use in data assimilation studies is limited to...

Chronic high surface ozone (O₃) levels and the increasing sulfur oxides (SOx = SO₂+SO₄) ambient concentrations over South Coast (SC) and other areas of California (CA) are...

Mixing ratios of a large number of nonmethane organic compounds (NMOCs) were observed by the Trace Organic Gas Analyzer (TOGA) on board the NASA DC-8 as part of the Arctic...

Coincident radar data with Doppler radar measurements at X, Ku, Ka, and W bands on the NASA ER-2 aircraft overflying the NASA P-3 aircraft acquiring in situ microphysical...
