Characteristics of, and fundamental differences between, the radiative-convective equilibrium (RCE) climate states following the Radiative-Convective Equilibrium Model...

The probability that summer temperatures in the future will exceed the hottest on record during 1920-2014 is projected to increase at all land locations with global warming....

Tropopause polar vortices are coherent circulation features based on the tropopause in polar regions. They are a common feature of the Arctic, with typical radii less than 1500...

Scientific report High Altitude Observatory (HAO) ; no. 1. AFCRL-63-660. Abstract: Forty scholars from the fields of meteorology, geography, geology, biology, anthropology, and...

This is a report on Omega wind error estimation. To make this a single source document on Omega windfinding and its errors, the authors have included derivation of basic...

The Kuroshio Extension (KE) has far-reaching influences on climate as well as on local marine ecosystems. Thus, skillful multi-year to decadal prediction of the KE state and...

Offshore wind resource assessments for the conterminous U.S. and Hawai'i have been developed before, but Alaska's offshore wind resource has never been rigorously assessed....

The ability of ground-based in situ and remote sensing observations to constrain microphysical properties for dry snow is examined using a Bayesian optimal estimation retrieval...

Despite the proliferation of computer-based research on hydrology and water resources, such research is typically poorly reproducible. Published studies have low reproducibility...

Nitrogen oxides (NOx = NO + NO2) play a crucial role in the formation of ozone and secondary inorganic and organic aerosols, thus affecting human health, global...

Large-scale Rossby normal modes are studied for the Northern Hemisphere winters of 2005, 2006, 2008, and 2009 using global observational meteorological analyses spanning the 0--...

Trends in short-lived high-temperature extremes record a different dimension of change than the extensively studied annual and seasonal mean daily temperatures. They also have...

The Environmental Effects Assessment Panel of the Montreal Protocol under the United Nations Environment Programme evaluates effects on the environment and human health that...

The variability of ozone in the lower stratosphere in a climate-chemistry model is investigated by multiple regression analysis. The model includes forcing due to changes in...

The Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment–Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS) on SCISAT-1 and Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on NASA’s Aura satellite have contributed...

The object of this paper is to describe and demonstrate the necessity and utility of a coupled atmosphere-fire model: a three-dimensional, time-dependent wildfire simulation...

The merger of squall line and supercell has been commonly observed in the Great Plains of the United States. On 23–24 May 2020, an isolated supercell formed ahead of a...

The large spatial scale of global Earth system models (ESMs) is often cited as an obstacle to using the output by water resource managers in localized decisions. Recent advances...

Secondary organic aerosol formation via condensation of organic vapors onto existing aerosol transforms the chemical composition and size distribution of ambient aerosol, with...

Models of ice crystal vapor growth require estimates of the deposition coefficient alpha when surface attachment kinetics limit growth and when ice crystal shape is predicted....
