New, definitive measures of precipitation frequency provided by CloudSat are used to assess the realism of global model precipitation. The character of liquid precipitation...

Thunderstorms and associated hazards like lightning can pose a serious threat to people outside and infrastructure. Thus, very short-term prediction capabilities (called...

LM3 is a new model of terrestrial water, energy, and carbon, intended for use in global hydrologic analyses and as a component of earth-system and physical-climate models. It is...

Reconstructions of past climates in both time and space provide important insight into the range and rate of change within the climate system. However, producing a coherent...

Variations in terrestrial oxygen-isotope reconstructions from ice cores and speleothems have been primarily attributed to climatic changes of surface air temperature,...

The Greenland ice sheet is one of the largest contributors to global mean sea-level rise today and is expected to continue to lose mass as the Arctic continues to warm. The two...

A process study using large-eddy simulations is carried out to explore the dominant 1-D processes that affect mixed layer (ML) properties during an event of summer Monsoon...

The auroral hemispheric power (HP) has been calculated from the averaged energy flux derived from Far-ultraviolet emission observations made by the global ultraviolet imager...

Understanding the influence of clouds on amplified Arctic surface warming remains an important unsolved research problem. Here, this cloud influence is directly quantified by...

The 1970 Colorado Lee Wave Observational Program provided the second period of intensive measurements of mountain-induced airflow over the central Rocky Mountains. The first...

Heat is one of the most serious hazards in the world as it affects human health and is extremely dangerous to vulnerable populations such as the elderly, people with preexisting...

Numerical weather, climate, or Earth system models involve the coupling of components. At a broad level, these components can be classified as the resolved fluid dynamics,...

Fire is a fundamental part of the Earth system, with impacts on vegetation structure, biomass, and community composition, the latter mediated in part via key fire-tolerance...

A benchmarking exercise was organized within the framework of the European Action Weather Intelligence for Renewable Energies ("WIRE") with the purpose of evaluating the...

Many research and monitoring networks in recent decades have provided publicly available data documenting environmental and ecological change, but little is known about the...

A Raman shifter is optimized for generating high-energy laser pulses at a 1.54 μm wavelength. A forward-scattering design is described, including details of the multiple pass...

This report reproduces the introspective review meeting about operational lessons learned from the Line Islands experiment that took place during March and April 1967....

Realistic multiscale simulations involve coupling of mesoscale and large-eddy simulation (LES) models, thus requiring efficient generation of turbulence in nested LES domains....

Marine stratocumuli are the most dominant cloud type by area coverage in the Southern Ocean (SO). They can be divided into different self-organized cellular morphological...
