The Antarctic Precipitation System project deployed and maintained four sites across the northwestern Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica from November 2017 to November 2019.
A spurious increase in the interannual variability of prescribed biomass burning (BB) emissions in the CMIP6 forcing database during the satellite era of wildfire monitoring (1997–2014) is found to lead to warming in the Northern Hemisphere extratropics in simulations with the Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2).
Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) supply a substantial portion of warm-season rainfall to the Great Plains of North America, and they are responsible for severe weather and flooding across the central United States.
The oceanic absorption of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) is expected to continue in the following centuries, but the processes driving these changes remain uncertain
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world’s largest general scientific society, today announced that ATOC Professor Brian Toon will join the ranks of its newest class of AAAS Fellows.
US West Coast rainfall was VERY different during the last ice age, why? We use new CESM experiments to find out! Take home point - North Pacific ocean temps, not ice sheets directly, responsible for hydroclimate shifts.
COVID pandemic lockdowns suddenly slowed the rate at which we burned fossil fuels and released carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, yet we cannot find any significant reductions in the growth of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from our measurements.
Using numerical simulations and wave tank observations, we found that both the slope and bandwidth of a wave packet can determine if a deep water ocean wave breaks or not.
