The long-term characteristics of four hydrometeor species (cloud water, cloud ice, rain, and snow) in precip-itating clouds over eastern China (divided into South China,...

To assess current remote-sensing capabilities for wind energy applications, a remote-sensing system evaluation study, called XPIA (eXperimental Planetary boundary layer...

Grass‐dominated ecosystems cover wide areas of the land surface yet have received far less attention from the Earth System Model (ESM) community. This limits model projections...

The Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Cloud System Study (GCSS) was organized to promote the development of improved parameterizations of cloud systems for use in...

Initial demonstrations of an ionosphere/polar wind model including a phenomenological treatment of transverse heating by wave particle interactions (WPIs) are presented. Tests...

The identification of vortices in a fluid flow is a dynamically interesting problem that has practical applications in oceanography due to the outsized role eddies play in water...

Scenarios of global greenhouse gas emissions have played a key role in climate change analysis for over twenty years. Currently, several research communities are organizing to...

We perform a multi-sensor analysis of water storage and surface height variations of the Caspian Sea, from mid-2002 through 2006. Data from three satellite missions (GRACE,...

Kinetic energy spectra derived from observations in the free atmosphere possess a wavenumber dependence of k^-3 for large scales, characteristic of 2D turbulence, and transition...

Explicit consideration of microbial physiology in soil biogeochemical models that represent coupled carbon-nitrogen dynamics presents opportunities to deepen understanding of...

The Community Earth System Model Ensemble Consistency Test (CESM-ECT) suite was developed as an alternative to requiring bitwise identical output for quality assurance. This...

Models and observations of atmospheric potential oxygen (APO similar or equal to O-2 + 1.1 * CO2) are used to investigate the influence of El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on...

Given the complexity involved in a flux-transport-type dynamo driven by both Babcock - Leighton and tachocline α effects, we present here a step-by-step procedure for building...

Aims. We investigate several partially-erupting prominences to study their relationship with other CME-associated phenomena and compare these observations with observables...

The new regional 15-km Arctic System Reanalysis, version 2, provides the accuracy and details necessary for many Arctic climate studies over the period 2000-12.

On the basis of simulations of hurricane Katrina in August 2005 with the advanced Weather and Research Forecasting (WRF) model at 4 km resolution without parameterized...

A prognostic equation for the liquid fraction of mixed-phase particles has been recently added to the Predicted Particle Properties (P3) bulk microphysics scheme. Mixed-phase...

This paper presents an approach to locally predict homogeneity of the subgrid-scale turbulent mixing in large-eddy simulation of shallow clouds applying double-moment warm-rain...

Planktic foraminiferal-based trace element-calcium ratios (TE/Ca) are a cornerstone in paleoceanographic reconstructions. While TE-environment calibrations are often established...

In the past, hydrologic modeling of surface water resources has mainly focused on simulating the hydrologic cycle at local to regional catchment modeling domains. There now...
