This paper investigates the physical mechanism of an unusual equatorial electron density structure, plasma cave, located underneath the equatorial ionization anomaly by using...

The chaotic nature of the atmospheric dynamics has stimulated the applications of methods and ideas derived from statistical dynamics. For instance, ensemble systems are used to...

The study of evolution characteristics of initial perturbations is an important subject in four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVAR) and mesoscale predictability...

The authors have analyzed global station data and created a gridded dataset of monthly precipitation for the period of 1900-88. Statistical analyses suggest that discontinuities...

This study investigates the relationship of total lightning activity and updraft characteristics, such as updraft volume and maximum updraft speed, for a number of storms of...

This paper examines the controls on supercooled liquid water content (SLWC) and drop number concenExperiment (SNOWIE) campaign. During SNOWIE, 27.4% of 1-Hz in situ cloud...

This work evaluates the IASI CO product against independent in-situ aircraft data from the MOZAIC program and the POLARCAT aircraft campaign. The validation is carried out by...

The current state-of-the-art climate models when combined together suggest that the anthropogenic weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has already...

The FORWARD SolarSoft IDL package is a community resource for model-data comparison, with a particular emphasis on analyzing coronal magnetic fields. FORWARD allows the...

El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a main driver of climate variability worldwide, but the presence of atmospheric internal variability makes accurate assessments of its...

Global Warming Potentials (GWPs) are evaluated with historical temperature by applying them to convert historical CH₄ and N₂O emissions to equivalent CO₂ emissions. Our...

Recent internationally coordinated efforts have used deterministic climate models for a common set of experiments and have produced large datasets of future climate projections....

We have recently implemented a new module that includes both the anomalous electron heating and the electron-neutral cooling rate correction associated with the Farley-Buneman...

Data from the HIgh Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder (HIRDLS), the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS), and the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model (WACCM) are used to investigate...

The precipitation regime of Dronning Maud Land (DML), Antarctica, was studied using Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) archive data. Precipitation is the most...

We investigate intraannual to interannual variability in the Antarctic Polar Front (PF) using weekly PF realizations spanning 2002-2014 (found at...

Fourier-based pseudospectral (PS) methods have been used since the 1970s for obtaining spectrally accurate solutions to PDEs in periodic geometries. Radial basis functions...

There is a new perspective of a continuum of prediction problems, with a blurring of the distinction between short-term predictions and long-term climate projections. At the...

Evaluations of GCM cloudiness typically compare climatological output with observations, but averaging over time can obscure the presence of compensating errors. A more...

The Climate System Model, a coupled global climate model without "flux adjustments" recently developed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, was used to simulate the...
