Hydrodynamic simulations of captured protoatmospheres around Earth-like planets [PDF]
Young terrestrial planets, when they are still embedded in a circumstellar disk, accumulate an atmosphere of nebula gas. The evolution and eventual evaporation of the protoplanetary disk affect the structure and dynamics of the planetary atmosphere.

Sea ice loss of the Barents-Kara Sea enhances the winter warming over the Tibetan Plateau
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is known as one of the most sensitive regions to climate change, and it has experienced accelerated warming in recent decades. However, to what degree the TP warming amplification relates to remote forcing such as sea ice loss in

Coupling of the CAS‐LSM Land‐Surface Model With the CAS‐FGOALS‐g3 Climate System Model
The land‐surface model of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS‐LSM), which includes lateral flow, water use, nitrogen discharge and river transport, soil freeze‐thaw front dynamics, and urban planning, was implemented in the Flexible Global Ocean ...

Measuring planetary atmospheric dynamics with Doppler spectroscopy [PDF]
Doppler imaging spectroscopy is the most reliable method of directly measuring wind speeds of planetary atmospheres of the solar system. However, most knowledge about atmospheric dynamics has been obtained with cloud-tracking technique, which consists of

The Phase-curve Signature of Condensible Water-rich Atmospheres on Slowly Rotating Tidally Locked Exoplanets [PDF]
We use an idealized three-dimensional general circulation model to study condensible-rich atmospheres with an ineffective cold trap on slowly rotating tidally locked terrestrial planets. In particular, we show the climate dynamics in a thin and temperate atmosphere with condensible water vapor. The similarities between our thin and temperate atmosphere

Using reanalysis data and simulations, this study revealed a pronounced negative interannual relationship between tropical southern Atlantic (TSA) sea surface temperature (SST) and East Asian surface air temperature (SAT) during boreal spring (March–May).

The Sistan Basin has been recognized as one of the most active dust sources and windiest desert environments in the world. Although the dust activity in Sistan maximizes during the summer, rare but intense dust storms may also occur in the winter.

Kinetic Helicity in the Earth's atmosphere [PDF]
An overview is given of the helicity of the velocity field (``kinetic'' helicity to distinguish it from the ``magnetic'' helicity used in magnetohydrodynamics, astrophysics, and solar physics; or simply \emph{helicity} in this Chapter) and of the role, which this concept plays in the modern research in atmospheric physics and atmospheric turbulence ...
