Amplified European Future Warming Under Mesoscale‐Resolving Sea Surface Temperature Forcing
Mesoscale SST features influence the atmospheric circulation via strong air–sea interactions. Yet, their contribution to regional climate change remains uncertain. Using a ∼16‐km global atmospheric model forced with mesoscale‐resolving and ‐smoothed SSTs,

Impact of Domain Size on Tropical Precipitation Within Explicit Convection Simulations
We investigate the sensitivity of modeled tropical precipitation accumulation, intensity and structures to the extent of convection‐permitting limited area model (LAM) domain size.

Observations of ozone production in a dissipating tropical convective cell during TC4 [PDF]
From 13 July–9 August 2007, 25 ozonesondes were launched from Las Tablas, Panama as part of the Tropical Composition, Cloud, and Climate Coupling (TC4) mission. On 5 August, a strong convective cell formed in the Gulf of Panama.

Earth's future climate and its variability simulated at 9 km global resolution [PDF]
Earth's climate response to increasing greenhouse gas emissions occurs on a variety of spatial scales. To assess climate risks on regional scales and implement adaptation measures, policymakers and stakeholders often require climate change information on

Using ICESAT\u27s geoscience laser altimeter system to assess large scale forest disturbance caused by Hurricane Katrina [PDF]
We assessed the use of GLAS data as a tool to quantify large-scale forest damage. GLAS data for the year prior to and following Hurricane Katrina were compared to wind speed, forest cover, and MODIS NPV maps to analyze senor sampling, and changes in mean

Mechanisms controlling primary and new production in a global ecosystem model – Part II: The role of the upper ocean short-term periodic and episodic mixing events [PDF]
The use of 6 h, daily, weekly and monthly atmospheric forcing resulted in dramatically different predictions of plankton productivity in a global 3-D coupled physical-biogeochemical model. Resolving the diurnal cycle of atmospheric variability by use of
