Herein, an analysis of a 3-km explicit convective simulation of an unusually intense bow echo and associated mesoscale vortex that were responsible for producing an extensive...

One of the more critical issues in a changing climate is the behavior of extreme weather events, such as severe tornadic storms as seen recently in Moore and El Reno, Oklahoma....

A symposium conducted under the auspices of the Laboratory of Atmospheric Science and the Advanced Study Program of NCAR, at Boulder, Colorado, in the summer of 1969. This...

We compare various radiative feedbacks over the Arctic (60-90 degrees N) estimated from short-term climate variations occurring in reanalysis, satellite, and global climate...

Precipitable water (PW) retrievals from FORMOSAT-3/Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate (COSMIC) Global Positioning System (GPS) radio...

In this study, the mechanism driving the narrow lower-thermospheric winter-to-summer meridional circulation is thoroughly investigated for the first time using the Specified...

Recent analyses show the importance of methane shortwave absorption, which many climate models lack. In particular, Allen et al. (2023) used idealized climate model...

Horizontal momentum flux in a global ocean climate model is formulated as an anisotropic viscosity with two spatially varying coefficients. This friction can be made purely...

Coastal communities face substantial risks from long-term sea level rise and decadal sea level variations, with the North Atlantic and U.S. East Coast being particularly...

A conservative multi-tracer transport algorithm on the cubed-sphere based on the semi-Lagrangian approach (CSLAM) has been developed. The scheme relies on backward trajectories...

Acetone is one of the most abundant oxygenated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the atmosphere. The oceans impose a strong control on atmospheric acetone, yet the oceanic...

CloudSat's 94-GHz Cloud Profiling Radar provides unique near-global observations of precipitation frequency and intensity. Here CloudSat-based diagnostics for near-surface...

Several years of moored turbulence measurements from xpods at three sites in the equatorial cold tongues of Atlantic and Pacific Oceans yield new insights into proxy estimates...

This technical note explains the rationale for choosing to work with changes in global mean temperature (also known as "Global Warming Levels"; GWL) rather than defined periods...

Stable boundary layers are still a relatively problematic component of atmospheric modeling, despite their frequent occurrence. While general agreement exists that Monin-Obukhov...

We present spatio-temporal distributions of the tertiary ozone maximum (TOM), based on GOMOS (Global Ozone Monitoring by Occultation of Stars) ozone measurements in 2002-2006....

The use of radiative kernels to diagnose climate feedbacks is a recent development that may be applied to existing climate change simulations. We apply the radiative kernel...

The impact of aerosols produced by biomass burning on the stratocumulus-to-cumulus transition (SCT) in the equatorial Atlantic is studied using satellite-based and reanalysis...

We present a survey on coronal prominence cavities conducted using 19 months of data from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) instrument aboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory...
