In this paper, a modified probability-matching technique is developed for ensemble-based quantitative precipitation forecasts (QPFs) associated with landfalling typhoons over...

Data science has many articulation points with information science, both in academic research contexts and in professional situations. Several recent journal special issues show...

Methodological choices can have strong effects on projections of climate change impacts on hydrology. In this study, we investigate the ways in which four different steps in the...

The impact of land-atmosphere anomaly coupling on land variability is investigated using a new two-stage climate model experimental design called the "GLACE-Hydrology''...

We still do not understand which physical mechanisms are responsible for the transport of angular momentum inside stars. The recent detection of mixed modes that contain the...

In this work we present downscaling experiments with the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) to test the sensitivity to resolving aerosol-radiation and aerosol-cloud...

Convective available potential energy (CAPE) is an important index for storm forecasting. Recent versions (v15.2 and v16) of the Global Forecast System (GFS) predict lower...

Polar surface temperatures are expected to warm 2–3 times faster than the global-mean surface temperature: a phenomenon referred to as polar warming amplification. Therefore,...

This study evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of aerosol distributions and optical depths that are used to force the GFDL coupled climate model CM2.1. The concentrations of...

Strong mesoscale haboob dust storms in April 2007 in the central Arabian Peninsula were studied using the cloud-resolving Weather Research and Forecasting-Chemistry (WRF-Chem)...

This paper reviews research conducted over the last six decades to understand and quantify the efficacy of wintertime orographic cloud seeding to increase winter snowpack and...

Although it is generally believed that the solar photosphere is not magnetically force-free owing to its high plasma beta, the estimations of force-freeness using observed...

The impact of projected Arctic sea ice loss on the stratosphere is investigated using the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM), a state-of-the-art coupled chemistry...

Advanced microphysics schemes (such as Eulerian bin and Lagrangian superdroplet) are becoming standard tools for cloud physics research and parameterization development. This...

This paper examines the dynamics of moist baroclinic modes, based on the idealized model of moist baroclinic instability devised by Emanuel et al. These authors found that the...

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) mission observed a unique structure of thermospheric column density ratio...

This study presents a simple 2D linear analytical model aimed at investigating gravity waves forced by temporally periodic convection near a coastline. This investigation...

During two field campaigns (OP3 and ACES), which ran in Borneo in 2008, we measured large emissions of estragole (methyl chavicol; IUPAC systematic name...

A nonlocal quasi-phase radio occultation (RO) observation operator is evaluated in the assimilation of Challenging Minisatellite Payload (CHAMP) radio occultation refractivity...

The object of this paper is to describe and demonstrate the necessity and utility of a coupled atmosphere-fire model: a three-dimensional, time-dependent wildfire simulation...
