The Concordiasi project is making innovative observations of the atmosphere above Antarctica. The most important goals of the Concordiasi are as follows: 1. To enhance the...

The structure of the east Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) as simulated in the Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2) is greatly improved as compared to its...

We report the first direct, in situ measurements of the chemical composition of size-segregated atmospheric nanoparticles in the 6 - 15 nm diameter range. These measurements...

Numerous studies and observational analyses point to a connection between the annual cycle and tropical Atlantic variability, specifically the influence of the seasons. Although...

The inclusion of parameterized Nordic Sea overflows in the ocean component of the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) results in a much improved representation of...

This was published as a section in "The State of the Climate in 2016", a Special Supplement edition of the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.

A comprehensive data set of partial ozone columns was derived from the charge-coupled device (CCD) Actinic Flux Spectroradiometer (CAFS) measurements taken during the Polar...

This work presents statistically reconstructed global monthly mean fields of temperature and geopotential height (GPH) up to 100 hPa for the period 1880–1957. For the...

Sea level rise (SLR) is a long-lasting consequence of climate change because global anthropogenic warming takes centuries to millennia to equilibrate for the deep ocean and ice...

In this paper thermosphere densities observed by the CHAMP and GRACE satellites and their orbital parameters are used to investigate the effect of periodic oscillations in...

Skillful and timely streamflow forecasts are critically important to water managers and emergency protection services. To provide these forecasts, hydrologists must predict the...

The ground-based measurements obtained from a lidar network and the 6-year OSIRIS (optical spectrograph and infrared imager system) limb-scanning radiance measurements made by...

Applications for space-based GPS technology have extended to the atmospheric field during the last two decades. More recently, numerical weather prediction (NWP) centers started...

Huge heat anomalies in the atmosphere and ocean in recent years are not yet explained. Strong characteristic patterns in temperatures for upper layers of the ocean occurred from...

A persistent spatial organization of eddies is identified in the lowest portion of the stably stratified planetary boundary layer. The analysis uses flow realizations from...

In this study, it is proposed that twin tropical cyclones (TCs), Kesiny and 01A, in May 2002 formed in association with the scale interactions of three gyres that appeared as a...

Satellite measurements have revealed significant enhancement of 5.3-mu m nitric oxide (NO) emission during shock-led interplanetary coronal mass ejections. Great discrepancies...

In February and March of 2011, the Global Hawk unmanned aircraft system (UAS) was deployed over the Pacific Ocean and the Arctic during the Winter Storms and Pacific Atmospheric...

We investigated a torrential rainfall case with a daily rainfall amount of 379 mm and a maximum hourly rain rate of 77.5 mm that took place on 12 July 2006 at Goyang in the...

This study quantifies the immediate influences of aerosols from urban anthropogenic and shipping emission sources on carbon and water fluxes in East Asia on a cloudy day in...
