Measurements of total precipitable water (TPW) from 11 satellite-borne microwave imaging radiometers are intercalibrated and merged into a single gridded monthly data set...

This paper describes the design and use of a recursive ensemble Kalman filter (REnKF) to assimilate streamflow data in an operational flow forecasting system of seven catchments...

This literature review summarizes the environmental controls governing biogenic sesquiterpene (SQT) emissions and presents a compendium of numerous SQT-emitting plant species as...

In response to the demolition and subsequent burning of the Kuwait oil fires this report summarizes a workshop that was held July 24-26, 1991 at the National Center for...

As wind farms grow in number and size worldwide, it is important that their potential impacts on the environment are studied and understood. The Fitch parameterization...

Slant wet delay (SWD) measurements from a ground-based GPS observation network provide accurate, high-resolution moisture information for mesoscale analysis. In this study, we...

A high-resolution cloud-resolving model (CRM) simulation is developed here for a two-dimensional Walker circulation over a planetary-scale domain of 40 000 km for an extended...

Large urban areas, commonly referred to as megacities, generally consume a huge amount of energy due to the high population density along with concentrated economic activities,...

Southern Ocean (SO) low-level mixed phase clouds have been a long-standing challenge for Earth system models to accurately represent. While improvements to the Community Earth...

A well-known problem in high-resolution ensembles has been a lack of sufficient spread among members. Modelers often have used mixed physics to increase spread, but this can...

Polarimetric radar observations increasingly are used to understand cloud microphysical processes, which is critical for improving their representation in cloud and climate...

The widely used 15-year Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data sets do not conserve global total mass. They have a spurious decreasing trend of similar to 280...

Sahel summertime precipitation declined from the 1950s to 1970s and recovered from the 1970s to 2000s. Anthropogenic aerosol contributions to this evolution are typically...

The structure of the analysis increments in a variational data assimilation scheme is strongly driven by the formulation of the background error covariance matrix, especially in...

The temperature of landfalling atmospheric rivers (ARs) has direct implications for regional water resources. Compared to cool ARs, warm ARs can result in more surface runoff...

The Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS) with variable resolution (60–15–1 km) is used to investigate the track deflection of Typhoon Chanthu (2021) near...

We have analysed the sensitivity of the tropospheric ozone distribution over North America and the North Atlantic to boreal biomass burning emissions during the summer of 2010...

We investigate the benefit of high-altitude nudging in simulations of the structure and short-term variability of the upper mesosphere and lower thermosphere (UMLT) dynamical...

Atmospheric simulationchambers continue to be indispensable toolsfor research in the atmospheric sciences. Insights from chamber studiesare integrated into atmospheric chemical...

Atmospheric chemistry plays a key role in determining the amounts and distributions of oxidants and gaseous precursors that control the formation of secondary gaseous and...
