Quantifying the Influence of Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies on the Atmosphere and Precipitation in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean and Southeastern South America

Atmosphere
Oceanic mesoscale activity influences the atmosphere in the southwestern and southern sectors of the Atlantic Ocean. However, the influence of high latitudes, specifically sea ice, on mid-latitudes and a better understanding of mesoscale ocean–atmosphere

Bragg scattering of surface-gravity waves by an ice shelf with rolling surface morphology

Annals of Glaciology
The propagation of elastic-flexural–gravity waves through an ice shelf is modeled using full three-dimensional elastic models that are coupled with a treatment of under-shelf sea-water flux: (i) finite-difference model (Model 1), (ii) finite-volume model

Activity Concentration of Radon, Thoron, and Their Decay Products in an Open System

Atmosphere
The article presents a model for the simulation of changes over time in the activity concentrations of radon and thoron and their progeny in an open system. The results of these simulations can be helpful in adapting the calibration process to the object
