Attributing Upper‐Tropospheric Warm Biases in CMIP6 Models to Ice Cloud‐Radiation Interaction Deficiencies Over Tropical Oceans

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract We assess the impact of hydrometeor radiative effects on tropical and subtropical Pacific air temperature anomalies (TAA) using Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) model simulations and satellite data. CMIP6 models are grouped by their treatment of frozen hydrometeors: SON2 (explicit cloud and falling ice), SON1 (simplified),

Climatic Higher‐Order Balanced Winds Beyond Geostrophic and Gradient Wind Fields

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We present a novel approach to derive three‐dimensional Climatic Higher‐Order Balanced (CHOB) wind fields from thermodynamic state variables in the free troposphere and stratosphere. The CHOB method is developed for monthly synoptic‐scale wind field estimation, utilizing commonly used balanced winds (geostrophic and gradient wind) enhanced by ...

Estimation of dusk time F-region electron density vertical profiles using LSTM neural networks: A preliminary investigation

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence in Geosciences, 2023
The vertical profile of the ionosphere density plays a significant role in the development of low-latitude Equatorial Plasma Bubbles (EPBs), that in turn lead to ionospheric scintillation which can severely degrade precision and availability of critical ...

Relative Contributions of Lower‐Atmosphere Tidal and Solar‐Magnetospheric Forcings to the Day‐to‐Day Variability of F‐Region Electron Density

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We use Thermosphere Ionosphere Electrodynamics General Circulation Model simulations nudged to realistic tides and their statistical day‐to‐day variabilities (DTDVs), derived from Michelson Interferometer for Global High‐Resolution Thermospheric Imaging/Ionospheric Connection Explorer observations, to estimate the relative importance of tidal ...

Detection of Equatorial Plasma Bubbles Using the COSMIC‐2 Rate of TEC Index

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are large‐scale plasma depletion structures that can disrupt Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and other space‐based technologies. Several instruments have been employed to study EPB dynamics, with Total Electron Content (TEC) and Rate of TEC change Index (ROTI) data standing out as valuable parameters

Tomographic Imaging of Ionospheric Plasma Bubbles Based on GNSS and Radio Occultation Measurements [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Total electron content measurements given by the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) have successfully presented results to capture the signatures of equatorial plasma bubbles. In contrast, the correct reproduction of plasma depletions at electron density level is still a relevant challenge for ionospheric tomographic imaging.
