NASA's Kepler Mission uses transit photometry to determine the frequency of Earth-size planets in or near the habitable zone of Sun-like stars. The mission reached a milestone...

Anthropogenic aerosols serve as a source of both cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nuclei (IN) and affect microphysical properties of clouds. Increasing aerosol number...

The Arctic is undergoing a pronounced and rapid transformation in response to changing greenhouse gasses, including reduction in sea ice extent and thickness. There are also...

One of the most important technical developments that took place during the early phases of the High Altitude Observatory's (HAO) Coronal Dynamics Project is the accomplishment...

TeraGrid has deployed a significant monitoring and accounting infrastructure in order to understand its operational success. In this paper, we present an analysis of the jobs...

A quasi-linear convective line with a trailing stratiform region developed during the Bow Echo and Mesoscale Convective Vortex Experiment (BAMEX) while being sampled by two...

Winter wheat is a staple crop for global food security, and is the dominant vegetation cover for a significant fraction of Earth's croplands. As such, it plays an important role...

This report is a accumulation of brief reports required of all Community Climate Model (CCM) users both inside and outside of NCAR. The report serves to augment periodically...

Simultaneous MLT (mesosphere-lower thermosphere) and thermospheric F region (upper thermosphere and ionosphere together) observations conducted using the middle and upper...

On the basis of simulations and observations made with polarimetric radars operating at X, C, and S bands, the backscatter differential phase δ has been explored; δ has been...

The Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) is a National Aeronautics and Space Administration mission of opportunity designed to study how the Earth's ionosphere-...

Theories for the maximum intensity of tropical cyclones (TCs) assume steady state. However, many TCs in simulations that run for tens of days tend to decay considerably from an...

Atmospheric humidity and soil moisture in the Amazon forest are tightly coupled to the region's water balance, or the difference between two moisture fluxes, evapotranspiration...

Variations in the width and strength of the Hadley cells are associated with many radiative, thermodynamic, and dynamical forcings. The physical mechanisms driving these...

This two-part study attempts to find appropriate mass dimension and terminal velocity relationships that, when considered together with particle size distributions (PSD), agree...

To evaluate the release mechanism of volatile organic species (VOCs) from solar illuminated snowpacks, this study used proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) for...

The Arctic Ocean freshwater budgets in climate model integrations of the twentieth and twenty-first century are examined. An ensemble of six members of the Community Climate...

Aims.We study the magnetohydrostatic equilibrium of magnetic flux tubes with circular cross sections embedded in a magnetic surrounding atmosphere. Methods.We solve the static...
