This paper describes a new approach for representing ice microphysics in climate models. In contrast with most previous schemes, this approach does not include separate...

The subfilter-scale (SFS) physics of regularization models are investigated to understand the regularizations' performance as SFS models. Suppression of spectrally local SFS...

A direct numerical simulation (DNS) with the decaying turbulence setup has been carried out to study cloud-edge mixing and its impact on the droplet size distribution (DSD)...

The meteoric metal layers (Na, Fe, and K)which form as a result of the ablation of incoming meteorsact as unique tracers for chemical and dynamical processes that occur within...

The Clouds, Aerosol, and Precipitation in the Marine Boundary Layer (CAP-MBL) deployment at Graciosa Island in the Azores generated a 21-month (April 2009-December 2010)...

Eight general circulation models have simulated the mid-Pliocene warm period (mid-Pliocene, 3.264 to 3.025 Ma) as part of the Pliocene Modelling Intercomparison Project...

Fog that refers to the concentration of ice or water droplets in the near surface air is an important short-time meteorological phenomenon. As the measure of visibility of air...

Recent work indicates that climate models have a positive bias in the strength of the winter-time low-level temperature inversion over the high-latitude northern hemisphere. It...

This paper documents the development of a novel approach for representing ice microphysics in numerical models. In this approach, the ice particle mass-dimension and projected-...

We analyze detailed atmospheric gas/aerosol composition data acquired during the 2008 NASA ARCTAS (Arctic Research of the Composition of the Troposphere from Aircraft and...

This critique of the study by Müller et al. examines the implications of radiative forcing geoengineering on Arctic wildfires and permafrost thaw. The authors argue that while...

The extreme disruptions of the wintertime stratospheric circulation during sudden stratospheric warmings (SSW) have large effects on tracer concentrations through alterations in...

Observations show that the ice water content (IWC) in mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) tends to occur in clusters. However, it is not sufficiently understood which ice crystal...

This study is the first attempt to investigate the characteristics of the drop size distribution (DSD) and drop shape relation (DSR) of seven typhoons after making landfall in...

The Taklamakan and Gobi Desert (TGD) region has experienced a pronounced increase in summer precipitation, including high-impact extreme events, over recent decades. Despite...

Observation and quantification of the Earth's surface is undergoing a revolutionary change due to the increased spatial resolution and extent afforded by light detection and...

Cloud physics data collected during the NSF/NCAR High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (HIAPER) Pole-to-Pole Observations (HIPPO) campaigns...

Following the 2015 Paris agreement, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was tasked with assessing climate change impacts and mitigation options for a world that limits...

Aims. We report spectroscopic observations in support of a novel view of transition region explosive events, observations that lend empirical evidence that at least in some...

Direct measurements of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) are necessary to understand its evolution in a context of climate change. International programs...
