Statistical postprocessing of high-resolution regional climate model output
Statistical postprocessing techniques have become essential tools for downscaling large-scale information to the point scale, and also for providing a better probabilistic...- publication PDF

First top-down estimates of anthropogenic NOx emissions using...
A number of satellite-based instruments have become an essential part of monitoring emissions. Despite sound theoretical inversion techniques, the insufficient samples and the...- publication PDF

NCAR global General Circulation Model of the atmosphere
This paper describes a model of the general circulation of the earth's atmosphere which has been developed and experimented with, since 1964, at the National Center for...- publication PDF

Role of vertical and horizontal mixing in the tape recorder signal near the...
Nearly all air enters the stratosphere through the tropical tropopause layer (TTL). The TTL therefore exerts a control on stratospheric chemistry and climate. The hemispheric...- publication PDF

The response of the climate system to very high greenhouse gas emission scenarios
Well informed decisions on climate policy necessitate simulation of the climate system for a sufficiently wide range of emissions scenarios. While recent literature has been...- publication PDF

D, E, and F layers in the daytime at high-latitude terminator ionosphere of...
We report the first model result for ion production rates and densities of positive ions, negative ions, and electrons in the dayside Martian ionosphere from 0 to 220 km. These...- publication PDF

Economic and biophysical impacts on agriculture under 1.5 °C and 2 °C warming
The goal of limiting global mean warming to well below 2 degrees C, and possibly to 1.5 degrees C, emerged in the Paris Agreement, motivated by the belief that achieving these...- publication PDF

Calculated and observed climate change in the thermosphere, and a prediction...
The long-term change of thermospheric neutral density has been investigated using satellite drag measurements and through sensitivity studies using upper atmosphere general...- publication PDF

Comparison of observed and simulated drop size distributions from large-eddy...
Two case studies of marine stratocumulus (one nocturnal and drizzling, the other daytime and nonprecipitating) are simulated by the UCLA large-eddy simulation model with bin...- publication PDF

Toward improving ice water content and snow-rate retrievals from radars....
Two methods for deriving relationships between the equivalent radar reflectivity factor Z(e) and the snowfall rate S at three radar wavelengths are described. The first method...- publication PDF

Are all flare ribbons simply connected to the corona?
We consider the observational basis for the belief that flare ribbons in the chromosphere result from energy transport from the overlying corona. We study ribbons of small...- publication PDF

Detection of high-altitude ionospheric irregularities with GPS/MET
In this study radio occultation data from the GPS/MET experiment are used for detection of high-altitude ionospheric irregularities. This is done by back propagation of the...- publication PDF

Role of interaction between magnetic Rossby waves and tachocline...
We present a nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic shallow-water model for the solar tachocline (MHD-SWT) that generates quasi-periodic tachocline nonlinear oscillations (TNOs) that can...- publication PDF
