Extended, high-resolution (0.23° latitude × 0.31° longitude) simulations with Community Atmosphere Model versions 4 and 5 (CAM4 and CAM5) are examined and compared with...

We assess the accuracy of global-gridded terrestrial water storage (TWS) estimates derived from temporal gravity field variations observed by the Gravity Recovery and Climate...

Variational data assimilation methods optimize the match between an observed and a predicted field. These methods normally require information on error variances of both the...

The variational Doppler radar analysis system developed in part I of this study is tested on a Florida airmass storm observed during the Convection and Precipitation...

Comprehensive assessment of climate datasets is important for communicating model projections and associated uncertainties to stakeholders. Uncertainties can arise not only from...

Climate change is increasing the intensity and frequency of extreme heat events. Ecological responses to extreme heat will depend on vegetation physiology and thermal tolerance....

It has become common for researchers to make their data publicly available to meet the data management and accessibility requirements of funding agencies and scientific...

The control variable transform (CVT) is a keystone of variational data assimilation. In publications using such a technique, the background term of the transformed cost function...

A new set of alternative socioeconomic scenarios for climate change researches--the shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs)--includes for the first time a more comprehensive set of...

Emissions of methane (CH₄) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from oil and gas production may have large impacts on air quality and climate change. Methane and VOCs were...

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar energetic particles (SEPs) are two phenomena that can cause severe space weather effects throughout the heliosphere. The evolution of...

Several major storms pounded western Europe in January 2018, generating large damages and casualties. The two most impactful ones, Eleanor and Friederike, are analysed here in...

The "gray zone" of convective modeling is defined as the range of horizontal grid spacings (Delta x) at which turbulent transport processes are only partially resolved by the...

The formation of organic nitrates during the oxidation of the biogenic hydrocarbon isoprene can strongly affect boundary layer concentrations of ozone and nitrogen oxides (NOx =...

To examine the claim that Global Positioning System (GPS) radio occultation (RO) data are useful as a benchmark data set for climate monitoring, the structural uncertainties of...

The role of solar wind density in the cross polar cap potential (CPCP) response under northward interplanetary magnetic field is investigated with observation-based global...

The quality of the retrieved temperature-versus-pressure (or T(p)) profiles is described for the middle atmosphere for the publicly available Sounding of the Atmosphere using...

Tropospheric ozone (O3) formation depends on the relative abundance of precursor species, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Advancements in satellite...

Information about the three-dimensional structure of solar magnetic fields is encoded in the polarized spectra of solar radiation by a host of physical processes. To extract...
