Anomalous Opaque Clouds Revealed by Collocated MODIS and CALIOP Retrievals
Abstract This paper examines discrepancies between cloud optical thickness (COT) retrievals from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud product, and cloud opacity measurements from the Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) lidar.

Air Quality Penalty in Southeast Asia Driven by AMOC Slowdown
Abstract The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) regulates Earth's climate by redistributing heat and freshwater across the Atlantic Ocean. While accelerating Arctic melt is expected to weaken the AMOC, its implications for atmospheric composition remain poorly understood.

Abstract This study investigates the potential impacts of frequent global coverage of satellite microwave radiances using a global atmospheric data assimilation (DA) system. Observing Systems Simulation Experiments (OSSEs) were performed using the Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter with the Nonhydrostatic Icosahedral Atmospheric Model (NICAM ...

Abstract This study investigates the variable‐ and scale‐dependent intrinsic predictability of wave‐convection coupled bands over southern China on 30 January 2018, using 1‐km simulations under varying initial moisture conditions. The predictability time is quantified via the Loss Predictability Index (LPI), defined as the ratio of the forecast error ...
