Abstract Carbonyl sulfide (OCS) is an important atmospheric sulfur species that plays a dominant role in the formation of (nonvolcanic) stratospheric sulfate aerosol in the middle stratosphere. Major uncertainties in surface sources and sinks and inconsistent model representation of vertical transport limit understanding of OCS distribution ...

Abstract Convectively coupled Kelvin waves (CCKWs) significantly influence tropical rainfall variability; however, accurately simulating these waves remains a challenge in atmospheric modeling. Cumulus parameterization is a critical element in model‐generated CCKW activity among the various factors.

Abstract We have characterized the magnitude and spatial extent of observed regional and inter‐regional air temperature trends and warming extremes across Antarctica. Prior studies have used localized observational records to analyze air temperature trends across distinct geographical regions, leaving local and inter‐regional variations to be ...

Plume Dynamics Drive Extreme Long‐Range Spotting During California's Dixie Fire
Abstract Observations reveal extreme long‐range fire spotting occurred during California's Dixie Fire. Specifically, we describe the occurrence of remarkable 9, 12, and 16 km spotting events on 16 August 2021. Radar data reveal these spot fires are linked to bent‐over but deep convective plumes with plume tops reaching 10–12 km MSL.

Abstract The Pacific North America (PNA), a major teleconnection pattern in North Pacific atmospheric variability, is tightly linked to El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO)‐related sea surface temperature (SST) forcing. This study examines the relative effects of eastern Pacific (EP) and central Pacific (CP) ENSO in driving the PNA teleconnection during
