New approaches for observing the moist troposphere using radio occultation (RO) signals transformed to impact parameter representation by radio-holographic (RH) methods are...

Flash floods are largely driven by high rainfall rates in convective storms that are projected to increase in frequency and intensity in a warmer climate in the future. However,...

Long-time solar researcher Patrick McIntosh died on 16 October 2016 after developing symptoms of Alzheimer's disease about 2010.

This paper introduces a new inversion algorithm for retrievals of stratospheric BrO from the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder. This version is based on the algorithm described by...

During the 2008 Olympics, the Chinese government made a significant effort to improve air quality in Beijing, including restrictions on traffic. Here we estimate the reductions...

Despite advancements in science and technology, flood prediction and preparedness remain challenging due to uncertainties in forecasting atmospheric and hydrologic processes,...

The MM4 system is a series of FORTRAN programs and accompanying C-shell scripts that runs under UNICOS on the Cray Y-MP8/864 at NCAR. Each of these shells is a standalone script...

A newly reprocessed, bias-corrected version of hourly satellite observations that provides global coverage of precipitation at high space-time resolution is evaluated and...

Plain Language Summary The annual cycle of the Somali Current is studied using a forced strongly eddy-active global ocean general circulation model. The annual cycle and timing...

A climate model (Community Earth System Model with the Community Atmosphere Model version 5 (CESM-CAM5)) is used to identify processes controlling Southern Ocean (30-70°S)...

Far ultraviolet observations of Earth's dayglow from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) mission...

The empirical localization algorithm described here uses the output from an observing system simulation experiment (OSSE) and constructs localization functions that minimize the...

Coastal communities are increasingly vulnerable to long-term sea level rise and fluctuations driven by climate variability. While recent advances in coupled climate models...

Major tropical volcanic eruptions have a large impact on climate, but there have only been three major eruptions during the recent relatively well-observed period. Models are...

Imagery and numerical modeling show an abundance of submesoscale oceanic eddies in the upper ocean. Large-eddy simulation (LES) is used to elucidate eddy impacts on the...

Spatially distributed historical meteorological forcings (temperature and precipitation) are commonly incorporated into modeling efforts for long-term natural resources...

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) significantly impact the hydrological cycle and associated extremes in western continental regions. Recent studies suggest ARs also influence water...

Accurate simulations of convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) are key to properly forecasting rainfall and weather patterns within (and outside) the tropics. Many...

Fires in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) are an important issue globally. To understand the change of WUI, we develop a 9 km worldwide unified wildland-urban interface...

The sawtooth mode of convection of Earth's magnetosphere is a 2- to 4-hour planetary-scale oscillation powered by the solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere (SW-M-I) interaction....
