Toward an Advanced Benchmark for Aerosol Radiative Forcing: A Chemically Resolved Sectional Aerosol Scheme in E3SMv3

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Aerosol radiative effects are the largest uncertainty in anthropogenic forcing estimates due to challenges in accurately representing aerosol properties and aerosol‐cloud interactions. In this study, we implement the Advanced Particle Microphysics module (APM) into the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SMv3) to represent evolving size ...

Evaluation of Low‐Level Clouds, Temperature, and Surface Radiation Using a Model, Two Reanalyses, and Southern Ocean Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Low‐level clouds over the Southern Ocean (SO) exert a strong influence on surface radiation, yet their representation in reanalyses and climate models remains uncertain. We evaluated cloud properties and surface radiative fluxes from ERA5, MERRA‐2, and the CAM‐ATRAS model using observations obtained over the SO by Japan's R/V Shirase during ...

Explanations in Microphysics: a Response to van Fraassen's Argument

Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology, 2008
The aim of this article is to offer a rejoinder to an argument against scientific realism put forward by van Fraassen, based on theoretical considerations regarding microphysics.

High‐Resolution LiDAR Observations for Coupled Effects of Dry‐Air Entrainment and Haze‐Cloud Interactions on Cloud Vertical Structure

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract This study demonstrates the high‐resolution profiling of cloud microphysics in a laboratory chamber using Time‐Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) LiDAR. We present a novel retrieval method to derive vertical extinction (σ) $(\sigma )$ profiles, constrained by in situ measurements, to diagnose responses to dry‐air entrainment.

Strong Diurnal‐Dependent Meteorological Control on Long‐Term Variations of Cloud Droplet Number Concentration

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract While long‐term cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) changes are commonly attributed to aerosols, the role of meteorological factors remains poorly explored. Here, we perform a time‐resolved contribution analysis of long‐term CDNC variations using nearly two decades of geostationary observations over four Atlantic subtropical regions. The

Diurnal Pulses in Tropical Cyclones as Convectively Coupled Gravity Waves

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract This study uses convection‐permitting simulations to examine the vertical extent, propagation, and nighttime preference of diurnal pulses (DPs) in tropical cyclones (TCs). DPs are outward‐moving rings of cooler brightness temperatures near the storm center and may indicate TC intensification.

Dust Layer Height Leads Atmospheric Boundary Layer Height by 3 hr Over the Taklimakan Desert

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The vertical distribution of dust modulates its radiative forcing and long‐range transport, yet the diurnal relationship between dust layer height (DLH) and atmospheric boundary layer height (ABLH) remains poorly constrained by observations.
