Semianalytical estimation of energy deposition in the ionosphere by...
For the first time we derive an analytical expression for energy deposition by propagating monochromatic Alfven waves in the collisional ionosphere-thermosphere (IT). Based on...- publication PDF

Land processes can substantially impact the mean climate state
Terrestrial processes influence the atmosphere by controlling land‐to‐atmosphere fluxes of energy, water, and carbon. Prior research has demonstrated that parameter...- publication PDF

Characterization of the long-term radiosonde temperature biases in the upper...
Radiosonde observations (RAOBs) have provided the only long-term global in situ temperature measurements in the troposphere and lower stratosphere since 1958. In this study, we...- publication PDF

The effect of atmospheric nudging on the stratospheric residual circulation...
We perform the first multi-model intercomparison of the impact of nudged meteorology on the stratospheric residual circulation using hindcast simulations from the Chemistry-...- publication PDF

Application of feature calibration and alignment to high-resolution...
Alignment errors [i.e., cases where coherent structures ("features") of clouds or precipitation in the background have position errors] can lead to large and non-Gaussian...- publication PDF
