Climatology and surface impacts of atmospheric rivers on West Antarctica
Atmospheric rivers (ARs) transport large amounts of moisture from the mid- to high-latitudes and they are a primary driver of the most extreme snowfall events, along with...- publication PDF

Understanding atypical midlevel wind speed maxima in hurricane eyewalls
In tropical cyclones (TCs), the peak wind speed is typically found near the top of the boundary layer (approximately 0.5–1 km). Recently, it was shown that in a few observed...- publication PDF

Large-eddy simulations of the impact of ground-based glaciogenic seeding on...
This study uses the WRF large-eddy simulation model at 100-m resolution to examine the impact of ground-based glaciogenic seeding on shallow (similar to 2 km deep), cold-based...- publication PDF

Monitoring and understanding changes in extremes: Extratropical storms,...
This scientific assessment examines changes in three climate extremes—extratropical storms, winds, and waves—with an emphasis on U.S. coastal regions during the cold season....- publication PDF

Internal variability and forcing influence model-satellite differences in...
Climate-model simulations exhibit approximately two times more tropical tropospheric warming than satellite observations since 1979. The causes of this difference are not fully...- publication PDF

Mechanisms responsible for stratosphere‐to‐troposphere transport around a...
Recent observational studies have shown that stratospheric air rich in ozone (O-3) is capable of being transported into the upper troposphere in association with tropopause-...- publication PDF

The CAMELS data set: catchment attributes and meteorology for large-sample studies
We present a new data set of attributes for 671 catchments in the contiguous United States (CONUS) minimally impacted by human activities. This complements the daily time series...- publication PDF

Insights into mechanisms governing forest carbon response to nitrogen...
In many forest ecosystems, nitrogen (N) deposition enhances plant uptake of carbon dioxide, thus reducing climate warming from fossil fuel emissions. Therefore, accurately...- publication PDF

The MJO and global warming: A study in CCSM4
The change in Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) amplitude and variance in response to anthropogenic climate change is assessed in the 1° nominal resolution community climate...- publication PDF

Recommendations on simple but transformative diversity, equity, and...
It is well established that, in order to perform at their peak ability, a person must feel accepted, safe, and valued at work. Therefore, it is imperative to bring Diversity,...- publication PDF

Effects of ozone isotopologue formation on the clumped-isotope composition...
Tropospheric (OO)-O-18-O-18 is an emerging proxy for past tropospheric ozone and free-tropospheric temperatures. The basis of these applications is the idea that isotope-...- publication PDF

Transport from the Asian Summer Monsoon anticyclone over the Western Pacific
The subseasonal scale dynamics of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) upper troposphere (UT) anticyclone has been identified as a primary mechanism for convectively lofted Asian...- publication PDF

The contribution of local and remote transpiration, ground evaporation, and...
Land surface evapotranspiration (ET) is a major source of moisture for the global hydrologic cycle. Though the influence of the land surface is well documented, moisture...- publication PDF

Model hierarchies for understanding atmospheric circulation
In this review, we highlight the complementary relationship between simple and comprehensive models in addressing key scientific questions to describe Earth's atmospheric...- publication PDF

Influence of continental ice retreat on future global climate
Evidence from observations indicates a net loss of global land-based ice and a rise of global sea level. Other than sea level rise, it is not clear how this loss of land-based...- publication PDF

Volcanic radiative forcing from 1979 to 2015
Using volcanic sulfur dioxide emissions in an aerosol-climate model, we derive a time series of global-mean volcanic effective radiative forcing (ERF) from 1979 to 2015. For...- publication PDF
