A convection-permitting numerical model is used to simulate the post-sunrise reorganization of a nocturnal mesoscale convective system (MCS) observed over western and central...

Fire frequencies are changing in Neotropical savannas and forests as a result of forest fragmentation and increasing drought. Such changes in fire regime and climate are...

This paper will first describe the forecasting errors encountered from running the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) mesoscale model (the Advanced Research Weather...

Forecast errors with respect to wind, temperature, moisture, clouds, and precipitation largely correspond to the limited capability of current Earth system models to capture and...

We examined temporal changes in the abundance of the mosquitoes Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.) and Aedes (Ochlerotatus) epactius Dyar & Knab from June to October 2012 in one...

An airflow trajectory analysis was carried out based on an idealized numerical simulation of the nocturnal 9 February 1993 equatorial oceanic squall line observed over the...

This work uses the Specified Dynamics-Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with Ionosphere/Thermosphere eXtension (SD-WACCM-X) to determine and explain the seasonality of...

As a contribution to national strategic energy planning, recent developments in meteorological modeling and wind generation technologies have improved the representation of the...

Ozone depletion events (ODEs) in the Arctic are primarily controlled by a bromine radical-catalyzed destruction mechanism that depends on the efficient production and recycling...

Accurate forecasting of a hurricane's intensity changes near its landfall is of great importance in making an effective hurricane warning. This study uses airborne Doppler radar...

We describe a terrestrial reference frame (TRF) realization based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data alone. Our approach rests on a highly dynamic, long-arc (9 day)...

During the 2005 NOAA Hazardous Weather Testbed Spring Experiment two different high-resolution configurations of the Weather Research and Forecasting-Advanced Research WRF (WRF-...

This study examines the impact of assimilating Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS) radiances in a limited-area ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) data assimilation system. Two...

Marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds play a crucial role in regulating radiative balance in the atmosphere. Previous studies identified that MBL cloud droplet number concentration...

As the U.S. polar-orbiting satellites NOAA-15, -18, and -19 and NASA's Aqua satellite reach the ends of their lives, there may be a loss in redundancy between their microwave...

The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) Visible Spectro-Polarimeter (ViSP) is a traditional slit-scanning spectrograph with the ability to observe solar regions up to a 120...

Despite the influence of hydroclimate on river ecosystems, most efforts to date have focused on using climate information to predict streamflow for water supply. However, as...

Mountain-wave turbulence in the presence of directional wind shear over the Rocky Mountains in Colorado is investigated. Pilot reports (PIREPs) are used to select cases in which...

In this second part of a cloud microphysics scheme intercomparison study, we focus on biases and variabilities of stratiform precipitation properties for a midlatitude squall...
