This study investigates relationships between vertical velocity, perturbation pressure, updraft size, and dimensionality for cumulus convection. Generalized theoretical...

The radio occultation (RO) technique, which makes use of radio signals transmitted by the global positioning system (GPS) satellites, has emerged as a powerful and relatively...

The Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) is a prominent mode of intraseasonal (~35-95 day) variability in the tropical Indian and western Pacific Oceans. Its impacts on ocean mixed-...

Here we investigate the role of the Bering Strait (BS) in the thermohaline circulation (THC) response to added freshwater forcing (hosing) in the subpolar North Atlantic,...

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) in winter can induce significant melting of sea ice as they approach the ice cover. However, due to the complex physical properties of sea ice, the...

Hailstones have large damage potential; however, their explicit prediction remains quite challenging. The uncertainty in a model's initial condition and microphysics are two of...

This paper reports some interesting equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) on 4 and 5 October 2013 and 29 and 30 September 2013 observed by two all-sky imagers located in the...

This paper analyzes the effects of the solar rotational (27-day) irradiance variations on the chemical composition and temperature of the stratosphere, mesosphere and lower...

Extreme heat occurrence worldwide has increased in the past decades. Greenhouse gas emissions, if not abated aggressively, will lead to large increases in frequency and...

December-February precipitation in southern Africa during recent El Nino events is studied by distinguishing circulation and precipitation responses during strong and moderate-...

Accurate predictions in numerical weather models depend on the ability to accurately represent physical processes across a wide range of scales. This paper evaluates the utility...

The past decade has witnessed remarkable economic development, marked by rapid industrialization and urbanization across Asian regions. This surge in economic activity has led...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is an important global-scale circulation and changes in AMOC can induce significant regional and global climate impacts....

The seasonal climatology of the O(¹S) and OH nighttime airglow in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) for the mid-to-high latitude region is explored in the context of...

This article begins with a review of important advances in the chemistry and related physics of the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) region of the atmosphere that have...

Context. The Mutual Impedance Probe (RPC-MIP) carried by the Rosetta spacecraft monitored both the plasma density and the electric field in the close environment of comet...

It has long been recognized that during solar eclipses, the ionosphere-thermosphere system changes greatly within the eclipse shadow, due to the rapid reduction of solar...

This study analyses the response of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) to LGM forcings and boundary conditions in nine PMIP coupled model simulations,...

This article does not have an abstract or article summary.

The primary purpose of this paper is to describe an efficient method of computing rotation-broadening effects allowing for the full limb-distance variation of both the continuum...
