Climate‐smart land management: Greenhouse gas outcomes and social and economic pathways to adoption
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Climate change poses one of the greatest threats to natural and working lands, reducing the resilience of agricultural and forest productivity. Because land management is a leading source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, climate‐smart management practices are being implemented to reduce net emissions while sustaining yields.

Sensitivity of mountain glacier mass balance to changes in bare-ice albedo
Annals of Glaciology, 2017 Albedo is an important parameter in the energy balance of bare-ice surfaces and modulates glacier melt rates. The prolongation of the ablation period enforces the albedo feedback and highlights the need for profound knowledge on impacts of bare-ice ...

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous

Analysis of the fractional scattering contribution in the forward peak for multicomponent systems
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Derivation and justification of mixing rules for multicomponent systems. A novel formulation of the delta‐Eddington scaling rule. Analytical guidance for comparing radiative transfer results. Abstract The widely used δ‐Eddington approximation improves the accuracy of radiative transfer calculations by representing the fraction of scattering into the ...

The Albedo of Pervious Cement Concrete Linearly Decreases with Porosity
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015 Pervious pavements have been advocated as a potential countermeasure to the urban heat island effect. To understand if pervious pavements stay cooler than conventional pavements, the albedo of the pervious concrete must be understood. This study measured

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The introduction of adaptive parameter tuning in the numerical weather prediction models of DWD in 2022 substantially improved the forecast quality of near‐surface variables like 2‐m temperature and 2‐m humidity. Since 2023, refinements and extensions, primarily affecting the surface evaporation and its diurnal cycle, have led to further advances ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Neighborhood methods are commonly used in verification to avoid the double‐penalty issue. This study evaluates such methods for the assimilation of infrared and visible satellite observations and extends them to multiscale assimilation. Moreover, a novel technique is tested aimed at mitigating complex biases and structural errors in real‐world model ...
