• Varying importance of storm types and antecedent conditions for local and...

  Local and potentially more impactful regional floods are driven by a combination of precipitation-triggering storms and antecedent conditions. However, it is yet unclear how the...

• Air–sea turbulent heat fluxes in climate models and observational...

  A traditional view is that the ocean outside of the tropics responds passively to atmosphere forcing, which implies that air-sea heat fluxes are mainly driven by atmosphere...

• Obstacles to high-dimensional particle filtering

  Particle filters are ensemble-based assimilation schemes that, unlike the ensemble Kalman filter, employ a fully nonlinear and non-Gaussian analysis step to compute the...
