Antarctic sea ice area in CMIP6
Fully coupled climate models have long shown a wide range of Antarctic sea ice states and evolution over the satellite era. Here, we present a high-level evaluation of Antarctic...- publication PDF

Systematic construction of global socioeconomic pathways using internally...
Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) describe alternative outcomes for socioeconomic development. Papers describing the conceptual framework for SSPs refer to challenges to...- publication PDF

Eulerian and Lagrangian approaches to multidimensional condensation and collection
Turbulence is argued to play a crucial role in cloud droplet growth. The combined problem of turbulence and cloud droplet growth is numerically challenging. Here an Eulerian...- publication PDF

North-South asymmetry in the modeled phytoplankton community response to...
Here we analyze the impact of projected climate change on plankton ecology in all major ocean biomes over the 21st century, using a multidecade (1880–2090) experiment conducted...- publication PDF

Revisiting trends in wetness and dryness in the presence of internal climate...
A theoretically expected consequence of the intensification of the hydrological cycle under global warming is that on average, wet regions get wetter and dry regions get drier...- publication PDF

Hydraulically-vulnerable trees survive on deep-water access during droughts...
Deep-water access is arguably the most effective, but under-studied, mechanism that plants employ to survive during drought. Vulnerability to embolism and hydraulic safety...- publication PDF
