Prescribed burning is a key management strategy within fire-adapted systems, and improved monitoring approaches are needed to evaluate its effectiveness in achieving social-...

This study reports on the development of bulk single-scattering models for ice clouds that are appropriate for use in hyperspectral radiative transfer cloud modeling over the...

Thermospheric winds usually flow from noon to the midnight inside the polar cap and spill further equatorward around midnight, due to the combined effects of solar radiation-...

Disdrometer observations indicate that the raindrop size distribution (DSD) can be represented by a constrained-gamma (CG) distribution model. The model is used to retrieve DSDs...

Investigation of electron energization at (and around) the Earth's bow shock is critical to our understanding of space weather and astrophysical phenomena. The traditional...

The response of tropical ecosystems to elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) remains a critical uncertainty in projections of future climate. Here, we investigate how leaf trait...

This paper reviews sea level contributions from land ice across the Arctic, including Greenland. We summarize ice loss measurement methods, ice loss mechanisms, and recent...

The Los Chocoyos (14.6 degrees N, 91.2 degrees W) supereruption happened similar to 75,000 years ago in Guatemala and was one of the largest eruptions of the past 100,000 years....

Recent studies [Solow and Moore, 2000; Landsea, 2007] have used an assumed constant ratio of landfalling cyclones to all tropical cyclones in the basin to assess potential...

An object-based technique was utilized to identify hydrometeor size-sorting signatures at lower levels in the convective regions of 10 mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) during...

The multi-decadal variations in the Pacific climate are extensively discussed as being influenced by external forcings such as greenhouse gases (GHGs) and anthropogenic aerosols...

The lower trophic levels of marine ecosystems play a critical role in the Earth System mediating fluxes of carbon to the ocean interior. Many of the functional relationships...

Geoengineering with stratospheric sulfate aerosols has been proposed as a means of temporarily cooling the planet, alleviating some of the side effects of anthropogenic CO₂...

The behaviors of the nitric oxide (NO) cooling in the lower thermosphere during the 14 December 2020 solar eclipse are studied using Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband...

Disastrous bushfires during the last months of 2019 and January 2020 affected Australia, raising the question to what extent the risk of these fires was exacerbated by...

We analyze the sources for spread in the response of the Northern Hemisphere wintertime stratospheric polar vortex (SPV) to global warming in Climate Model Intercomparison...

This manual is a reference guide for users of the NCAR Graphics package. The manual is for use by two audiences: people who have never used a previous NCAR graphics package, and...

The deep ocean below 200 m water depth is the least observed, but largest habitat on our planet by volume and area. Over 150 years of exploration has revealed that this dynamic...

The Visible Spectro-Polarimeter (ViSP) is one of the first light instruments for the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope (ATST). It is an echelle spectrograph designed to...
