The Evolution of Tropical Cyclone Intensity and Size in Observations and HighResMIP Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract The destructive potential of a tropical cyclone (TC) depends on both its intensity and size, yet the coupled evolution of these properties remains insufficiently explored. This study investigates TC intensity–size relationships of TCs in observations and historical simulations from 12 HighResMIP models in the North Atlantic (NA) and western ...

Model Sensitivities of Biomass‐Burning Aerosol Chemical Aging, Sulfate Formation, and Cloud Droplet Activation in the Southeastern Atlantic Using CESM and E3SM

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Biomass‐burning smoke drives large uncertainty in climate projections of the Earth's radiative balance. This is due to the chemical and physical evolution of smoke and its impact on clouds and radiation. Here we focus on the southeastern Atlantic region and its inflow of African biomass‐burning smoke during August 2017.

Toward an Advanced Benchmark for Aerosol Radiative Forcing: A Chemically Resolved Sectional Aerosol Scheme in E3SMv3

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Aerosol radiative effects are the largest uncertainty in anthropogenic forcing estimates due to challenges in accurately representing aerosol properties and aerosol‐cloud interactions. In this study, we implement the Advanced Particle Microphysics module (APM) into the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SMv3) to represent evolving size ...

A New Lidar‐Based Observational Estimate for a Short‐Term Longwave High‐Cloud Feedback

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract High clouds play a substantial role in modulating the Earth's top‐of‐atmosphere radiative energy budget. Models project that changes in high‐cloud altitude and area in response to warming will have a net warming effect within the tropics. Yet, to our knowledge, a robust global observational constraint of a short‐term cloud feedback associated ...

Impact of a Stratocumulus Scheme on Clouds and Feedbacks in MIROC7

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Marine stratocumulus (Sc) clouds exert a strong cooling effect on climate by reflecting solar radiation, yet many climate models underestimate their amount and cause uncertainty in equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS). Herein, we show that incorporating a physically based Sc parameterization into the seventh version of the Model for ...

Underestimated Arctic “Radiator Fin” Effect in Climate Model Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The Earth's energy balance is crucial for maintaining a stable climate. Studies have shown accelerated net energy accumulation by the Earth in recent decades, mainly due to enhanced solar absorption. Meanwhile, observations show a pronounced increase in Arctic (north of 70N) outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), which acts as “radiator fins” to ...
