Evaluation of aerosol loading and its relationship with geopotential height in Nigeria’s Guinea Coast

open access: yesBulletin of the National Research Centre
Climate variability and atmospheric changes significantly affect weather patterns and human activities. Aerosols impact the Earth's climate by influencing cloud formation, scattering radiation, and cooling the planet. However, aerosols, like black carbon,

Revealing skill of the MiKlip decadal prediction system by three-dimensional probabilistic evaluation

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2016
Decadal climate predictions and their verification are part of ongoing research. This article studies different methods applied to decadal hindcasts of three-dimensional atmospheric variables to evaluate the MiKlip (Mittelfristige Klimaprognosen ...

Synoptic-scale variability and its relationship with total ozone and Antarctic vortex displacements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The main synoptic-scale circulation anomaly pattern over extratropical South America during the austral spring (September-November) is identified by means of rotated extended empirical orthogonal function techniques, applied to the meridional wind ...

An Ensemble Mean and Evaluation of Third Generation Global Climate Reanalysis Models

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2018
We have produced a global ensemble mean of the four third-generation climate reanalysis models for the years 1981–2010. The reanalysis system models used in this study are National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System

Local identification of equatorial mixed Rossby–gravity waves

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A method for the local identification of mixed Rossby–gravity (MRG) waves at specific longitudes is proposed. The technique jointly identifies eastward mixed Rossby–gravity (EMRG) and westward mixed Rossby–gravity (WMRG) waves. Comparison with global identification methods already found in the literature shows very good accuracy of the newly developed ...

Solar zenith angle and solar activity dependences of vertical profile of electron number density in the nightside auroral region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Solar zenith angle and solar activity dependences of electron number density in the nightside auroral region from the topside ionosphere to the magnetosphere within a geocentric radial distance of 2.6 R_E were statistically investigated based on analysis

A model intercomparison analysing the link between column ozone and geopotential height anomalies in January [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
A statistical framework to evaluate the performance of chemistry-climate models with respect to the interaction between meteorology and column ozone during northern hemisphere mid-winter, in particularly January, is used.
