New particle formation in the upper free troposphere is a major global source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).

Think it’s been unusually windy on the Front Range this spring? You’re right.

The Blob was the early manifestation of the Northeast Pacific marine heat wave from 2013 to 2016.

Variability in hydroclimate impacts natural and human systems worldwide. In particular, both decadal variability and extreme precipitation events have substantial effects and are anticipated to be strongly influenced by climate change.

In this study, we examine the role of cloud parameterizations in simulating the LGM cooling in CESM2.

Do changes in ocean heat transport (OHT), that occur with CO 2 forcing, impact climate sensitivity in Earth system models?

This study isolates the influence of sea ice mean state on pre-industrial climate and transient 1850-2100 climate change within a fully coupled global model: The Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2).

Ongoing human perturbations to the global inorganic carbon cycle can cause various changes in the pH and alkalinity of aquatic systems.

Oceanic flows self-organize into coherent vortices, which strongly influence their transport and mixing properties.

The Antarctic Precipitation System project deployed and maintained four sites across the northwestern Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica from November 2017 to November 2019.
