Dynamic allometry in coastal overwash morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Allometry refers to a physical principle in which geometric (and/or metabolic) characteristics of an object or organism are correlated to its size. Allometric scaling relationships typically manifest as power laws.

Kilometer-scale global warming simulations and active sensors reveal changes in tropical deep convection

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
Changes in tropical deep convection with global warming are a leading source of uncertainty for future climate projections. A comparison of the responses of active sensor measurements of cloud ice to interannual variability and next-generation global ...

A black shale protolith for gold-tellurium mineralisation in the Dalradian Supergroup (Neoproterozoic) of Britain and Ireland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Dalradian Supergroup of Britain and Ireland is mineralised by gold-tellurium vein deposits. The host succession includes carbonaceous, pyritic shales (pelites) which were a source of trace elements, including gold and tellurium.

Advancements and continued challenges in observations and global modelling of atmospheric ice mass [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
We assess the current status of atmospheric ice mass estimates by first critically comparing satellite-based datasets, then examining global circulation and global storm-resolving models. The analysis focuses on the frozen water path, which offers a more

How may tropical cyclones change in a warmer climate? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Tropical Cyclones (TC) under different climate conditions in the Northern Hemisphere have been investigated with the Max Planck Institute (MPI) coupled (ECHAM5/MPIOM) and atmosphere (ECHAM5) climate models.

Improvement in the decadal prediction skill of the North Atlantic extratropical winter circulation through increased model resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this study the latest version of the MiKlip decadal hindcast system is analyzed, and the effect of an increased horizontal and vertical resolution on the prediction skill of the extratropical winter circulation is assessed.

Ocean Modeling on a Mesh With Resolution Following the Local Rossby Radius [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We discuss the performance of the Finite Element Ocean Model (FESOM) on locally eddy-resolving global unstructured meshes. In particular, the utility of the mesh design approach whereby mesh horizontal resolution is varied as half the Rossby radius in ...

A Climatology of the Tropospheric Thermal Stratification Using Saturation Potential Vorticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The condition of convective neutrality is assessed in the troposphere by calculating the saturation potential vorticity P* from reanalysis data. Regions of the atmosphere in which saturation entropy is constant along isosurfaces of absolute angular ...

Evaluation of Global Climate and Storm-Resolving Model Representations of Mixed-Phase Clouds and Their Hemispheric Contrasts

open access: yesAtmosphere
Mixed-phase clouds, in which liquid droplets and ice crystals coexist at temperatures between −38 °C and 0 °C, play a critical role in Earth’s radiation budget.

Earth System Modeling 2.0: A Blueprint for Models That Learn From Observations and Targeted High-Resolution Simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Climate projections continue to be marred by large uncertainties, which originate in processes that need to be parameterized, such as clouds, convection, and ecosystems. But rapid progress is now within reach.
