Evaluating the transferability of empirical models of debris-covered glacier melt

Journal of Glaciology, 2020
Supraglacial debris is significant in many regions and complicates modeling of glacier melt, which is required for predicting glacier change and its influences on hydrology and sea-level rise.

Downwelling surface solar irradiance in the tropical Atlantic Ocean: a comparison of re-analyses and satellite-derived data sets to PIRATA measurements [PDF]

Ocean Science, 2018
This paper assesses the merits and drawbacks of several data sets of solar downwelling radiation received at the horizontal surface of the tropical Atlantic Ocean where the magnitude of this radiation and its spatial and temporal variability are not ...

Earth observations from DSCOVR EPIC instrument [PDF]

, 2018
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) spacecraft was launched on 11 February 2015 and in June 2015 achieved its orbit at the first Lagrange point (L1), 1.5 million km from Earth toward the sun.

Updates on Mediterranean diet and health status: active ingredients and pharmacological mechanisms

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) is among the most extensively studied dietary patterns and has been consistently associated with reduced risk of all‐cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, cognitive decline and several types of cancers.

Validation of BARRA2 and comparison with MERRA-2 and ERA5 using historical wind power generation

Journal of Southern Hemisphere Earth Systems Science, 2023
Atmospheric reanalyses are a popular source of wind speed data for energy modelling but are known to exhibit biases. Such biases can have a significant impact on the validity of techno-economic energy assessments that include simulated wind power. This study assesses the Australian BARRA-R2 (Bureau of Meteorology Atmospheric Regional Reanalysis for ...

Missing Summer Westerly Jet Barotropic Governor Effect Explains Climate Models—Observation Discrepancies in the Indian Monsoon Trends

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon has exhibited a pronounced Northwest India‐Indo‐Gangetic Plains rainfall dipole since 1999, with northwest India experiencing a 24.6% increase, while rainfall in the Indo‐Gangetic Plain has decreased by 4.4%.

Validation and Comparison of Long-Term Accuracy and Stability of Global Reanalysis and Satellite Retrieval AOD

Remote Sensing
Reanalysis and satellite retrieval are two primary approaches for obtaining large-scale and long-term Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) datasets. This study evaluates and compares the accuracy, long-term stability, and error characteristics of the MERRA-2 ...

Machine Learning Reveals Hidden Bias in ERA5 Cloud Heights Over Earth's Third Pole

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Accurate cloud base height (CBH) over the Tibetan Plateau—Earth's Third Pole—is essential for monsoon dynamics, glacial melt, and water security, yet ERA5 systematically underestimates it. Here, we present a two‐step machine learning framework to mitigate this hidden bias.

PBL Height From AIRS, GPS RO, and MERRA‐2 Products in NASA GES DISC and Their 10‐Year Seasonal Mean Intercomparison

Earth and Space Science, 2021
Within the planetary boundary layer (PBL), surface forcing response, drag, turbulence, and vertical mixing are important processes and play a more critical role here than in the overlying “free atmosphere.” The PBL height (PBLH) is an important parameter

Seasonal Variability of Precipitation‐Associated Bioaerosols, Including Viruses, and Their Links to Cloud Ice Processes and Precipitation in a Coastal City

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Viruses constitute a significant subset of bioaerosols whose roles in cloud ice processes remain understudied. Continuous observations of viruses and total airborne microbes (TAMs) in precipitation were conducted in Qingdao from March 2024 to December 2025.
