Atmospheric river contributions to ice sheet hydroclimate at the Last Glacial Maximum
Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are an important driver of surface mass balance over today's Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. Using paleoclimate simulations with the Community Earth...- publication PDF

The transition from geostrophic to stratified turbulence
We present numerical simulations of forced rotating stratified turbulence dominated by vortical motion (i.e. with potential vorticity). Strong stratification and various...- publication PDF

Comparisons of transport and dispersion model predictions of the mock urban...
The potential effects of a terrorist attack involving the atmospheric release of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or other hazardous materials continue to be of...- publication PDF

Sensitivity of modeled arctic mixed-phase stratocumulus to cloud...
A two-moment microphysics scheme implemented in the polar version of the mesoscale model MM5 is used to simulate a mixed-phase stratocumulus deck observed during the Fall 2004...- publication PDF

Introducing subgrid-scale cloud feedbacks to radiation for regional...
Convective systems and associated cloudiness directly influence regional and local atmospheric radiation budgets, as well as dynamics and thermodynamics, through feedbacks....- publication PDF

Uniting the Sun's Hale magnetic cycle and "extended solar cycle" paradigms
Through meticulous daily observation of the Sun's large-scale magnetic field the Wilcox Solar Observatory (WSO) has catalogued two magnetic (Hale) cycles of solar activity....- publication PDF

Pores resolving simulation of Darcy flows
A theoretical formulation and corresponding numerical solutions are presented for microscopic fluid flows in porous media with the domain sufficiently large to reproduce...- publication PDF

A scaling theory for the size distribution of emitted dust aerosols suggests...
Mineral dust aerosols impact Earth's radiation budget through interactions with clouds, ecosystems, and radiation, which constitutes a substantial uncertainty in understanding...- publication PDF
