In this study, we describe the first prototype version of global aerosol reanalysis at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the prototype NOAA Aerosol...

Earth system models (ESMs) can help to improve the understanding of climate-induced cryospheric-hydrological impacts in complex mountain regions, such as High Mountain Asia...

Convective scale models used in NWP nowadays include detailed realistic parametrisation for the representation of cloud and precipitation processes. They however still lack...

The hydrological cycle in South America during austral summer, including extreme precipitation and floods, is significantly influenced by northerly low-level jets (LLJs) along...

In this two-part paper, influences from environmental factors on lightning in a convective storm are assessed with a model. In Part I, an electrical component is described and...

Although it is well established that vertical wind shear helps to organize and maintain convective systems, there is a longstanding colloquial notion that it inhibits the...

The characteristics and mechanisms of diurnal rainfall and winds near the south coast of China are explored using satellite data (CMORPH), long-term hourly WRF Model data (Du...

Climate change adaptation involves the management of climate-related risks, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change says we must prioritize adaptation immediately....

The Community Earth System Model (CESM) is a flexible and extensible community tool used to investigate a diverse set of Earth system interactions across multiple time and space...

Precipitation extremes are increasing globally due to anthropogenic climate change. However, there remains uncertainty regarding impacts upon flood occurrence and subsequent...

Turbulent flow in a weakly convective marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) driven by geostrophic winds V-g = 10 m s(-1) and heterogeneous sea surface temperature (SST) is...

Field line curvature scattering by the magnetic field structure associated with bursty bulk flows (BBFs) has been studied, using simulated output fields from the Lyon-Fedder-...

The role of earlier forecast errors on subsequent convection forecasts is evaluated for a northern Great Plains severe convective event on 11-12 June 2013 during the Mesoscale...

The physical mechanisms determining the shape of the surface wind speed probability density function over complex terrain are investigated using observations from a dense...

The interaction of the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere is complex, and the phenomenology of the interaction is very different for interplanetary coronal mass ejections...

Data assimilation (DA), the statistical combination ofcomputer models with measurements, is applied in a variety of scientificfields involving forecasting of dynamical systems,...

An overview is given of the structure of the marine boundary layer including the molecular interactions at the interface, the transfer processes in the surface layer, and the...

In the face of a changing climate, the understanding, predictions, and projections of natural and human systems are increasingly crucial to prepare and cope with extremes and...

The radar-retrieved refractivity fields provide detailed depictions of the near-surface moisture distribution at the meso-gamma scale. This study represents a novel application...

We compare two seemingly different methods of estimating random error statistics (uncertainties) of observations, the three-cornered hat (3CH) method and Desroziers method, and...
