A comparison of Antarctic ice sheet surface mass balance from atmospheric climate models and in situ observations [PDF]

, 2016
In this study, 3265 multiyear averaged in situ observations and 29 observational records at annual time scale are used to examine the performance of recent reanalysis and regional atmospheric climate model products [ERA-Interim, JRA-55, MERRA, the Polar ...

A multi-satellite climatology of clouds, radiation and precipitation in southern West Africa and comparison to climate models [PDF]

, 2016
Southern West Africa (SWA) has a large population that relies on highly variable monsoon rainfall, yet climate models show little consensus over projected precipitation in this region.

Sensitivity Studies for a Hybrid Numerical–Statistical Short-Term Wind and Gust Forecast at Three Locations in the Basque Country (Spain)

Atmosphere, 2019
This study evaluates the performance of statistical models applied to the output of numerical models for short-term (1−24 h) hourly wind forecasts at three locations in the Basque Country. The target variables are horizontal wind components and the

Enhanced Stratosphere/Troposphere Coupling During Extreme Warm Stratospheric Events with Strong Polar-Night Jet Oscillation

Atmosphere, 2018
Extreme warm stratospheric events during polar winters from ERA-Interim reanalysis and CMIP5-ESM-LR runs were separated by duration and strength of the polar-night jet oscillation (PJO) using a high statistical confidence level of three standard ...

Bias correction of ERA-Interim reanalysis temperature for the Qilian Mountains of China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Air temperature is the primary indicator of climate change. Reanalysis temperature products are important datasets for temperature estimates over high-elevation areas with few meteorological stations.

Combining satellite observations and reanalysis energy transports to estimate global net surface energy fluxes 1985-2012 [PDF]

, 2015
Two methods are developed to estimate net surface energy fluxes based upon satellite-based reconstructions of radiative fluxes at the top of atmosphere and the atmospheric energy tendencies and transports from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. Method 1 applies

An evaluation of daily precipitation from a regional atmospheric reanalysis over Australia [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019
An accurate representation of spatio-temporal characteristics of precipitation fields is fundamental for many hydro-meteorological analyses but is often limited by the paucity of gauges.

The Arctic summer atmosphere: an evaluation of reanalyses using ASCOS data [PDF]

, 2014
The Arctic has experienced large climate changes over recent decades, the largest for any region on Earth. To understand the underlying reasons for this climate sensitivity, reanalysis is an invaluable tool.
