Hail accumulation can be a couple inches or a couple feet deep in Colorado.

Rising CO2 causes more than a climate crisis—it may directly harm our ability to think

In autumn 2019, a ship will be frozen into the Arctic sea ice for a year to study system changes. We analyze climate model data from a group of experiments and follow virtual sea ice floes throughout a year.

Describes the utility of large ensembles of Earth system models.

A polar–subtropical jet superposition represents a dynamical and thermodynamic environment conducive to the production of high-impact weather.

The Arctic is undergoing a rapid transition toward a seasonal ice regime, with widespread implications for the polar ecosystem, human activities, as well as the global climate

CU Boulder will soon play a major role in measuring the withdrawals from Earth’s energy bank account.

Cloud seeding to increase winter snowpack in mountains has traditionally been evaluated using precipitation gauges and target/control statistics leading mostly to inconclusive results.
