An assessment of the radiative effects of ice supersaturation based on in...
We use aircraft observations combined with the reanalysis data to investigate the radiative effects of ice supersaturation (ISS). Our results show that although the excess water...- publication PDF

Near real-time GPS sensing of atmospheric water vapor
We describe sensing of atmospheric column water vapor in near real-time using the Global Positioning System (GPS). We use predicted GPS orbits for automated computation of...- publication PDF

The impact of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation on maximum temperature extremes
The impact of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on temperature extremes is examined in both observations and coupled climate model simulations. HadEX2, a newly developed...- publication PDF

Machine learning uncovers aerosol size information from chemistry and...
Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are mediators of aerosol-cloud interactions, which contribute to the largest uncertainty in climate change prediction. Here, we present a machine...- publication PDF

New empirical formulation for the sublimational breakup of graupel and dendritic snow
Ice fragments are generated by sublimation of ice particles in subsaturated conditions in natural clouds. Conceivably, such sublimational breakup would be expected to cause ice...- publication PDF

Asymmetry in the duration of El Niño and La Niña.
El Niño and La Niña are not a simple mirror image, but exhibit significant differences in their spatial structure and seasonal evolution. In particular, sea surface temperature...- publication PDF

Modelling a multi-spacecraft coronal mass ejection encounter with EUHFORIA
Context. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a manifestation of the Sun's eruptive nature. They can have a great impact on Earth, but also on human activity in space and on the...- publication PDF

The first climate refugees? Contesting global narratives of climate change in Tuvalu
Climate change effects such as sea-level rise are almost certain. What these outcomes mean for different populations, however, is far less certain. Climate change is both a...- publication PDF
