This work presents a comprehensive evaluation of tides in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with thermosphere-...

This manual describes library routines to be used in FORTRAN computer programming. The following topics are addressed: in-line functions, mathematical library routines, utility...

The conceptual model of an atmospheric rotor is reexamined in the context of a valley, using data from the Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX) conducted in 2006 in the...

This study examines the lifting of sheared environmental air by gravity currents, focusing primarily on the theoretical "optimal state" in which near-surface flow is turned into...

Lossy compression of climate model output is desperately needed to reduce the massive storage burden on research centers. Lossy compression must be applied carefully to avoid...

We present a survey of magnetic reconnection at the dayside magnetopause using the Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry global magnetospheric simulation code. We explore simulations of the...

Background: Morbidity burdens from ambient air pollution are associated with market and non-market costs and are therefore important for policymaking. The estimation of...

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...

The mechanisms leading to tropical cyclone (TC) intensification amid moderate vertical wind shear can vary from case to case, depending on the vortex structure and the large-...

The relationship between Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) variability and high-latitude North Atlantic buoyancy changes is complicated by the latter both...

A large-eddy simulation (LES) framework with an "eddy injection'' technique has been developed that ensures a majority of turbulent kinetic energy in numerically simulated...

The period of 6-11 September 2017 was an active period in which multiple solar flares and a major geomagnetic storm occurred. The two largest flares, an X9.3 and an X8.2, were a...

Due to large northward heat transport, the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) strongly affects the climate of various regions. Its internal variability has been...

Stochastically generated streamflow time series are used for various water management and hazard estimation applications. They provide realizations of plausible but as yet...

Energetic electron precipitation (EEP) is an important source of polar nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the upper atmosphere. During winter, mesospheric NOx has a long chemical lifetime...

As a major component of Earth's energy budget, ocean heat content (OHC) plays a vital role in buffering climate change. The annual cycle is the most prominent change in OHC but...

This study examines complex flow patterns associated with the Cape Canaveral sea breeze and sea-breeze front using dual-Doppler radar, sounding, and surface data collected on 26...

Boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) is a primary source of predictability for summertime weather and climate on the subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) time scale. Using...

A long-lived heavy precipitation area was observed along the southwest coast of Taiwan from 13 to 18 June 2008 during the Terrain-Influenced Monsoon Rainfall Experiment...

We describe the University of Colorado mobile Solar Occultation Flux instrument (CU mobile SOF). The instrument consists of a digital mobile solar tracker that is coupled to a...
