Impacts of Low‐Level Jets on Moisture Transport to the Pantanal, Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 3, 15 March 2026.
The moisture transports from the tropics to the subtropics by the low‐level jets (LLJs) east of the Andes crossing the Pantanal region. Four LLJs, east of the Andes, were identified and selected with correspondent Lagrangian moisture transport. The LLJ moisture source regions contribute to Pantanal (~63.5%) and precipitation increased (~30%) during LLJ

Determination of Planetary Boundary Layer height with Lidar Signals Using Maximum Limited Height Initialization and Range Restriction (MLHI-RR)

Remote Sensing, 2020
The planetary boundary layer height (PBLH) is a vital parameter to characterize the surface convection, which determines the diffusion of air pollutants.

Global radiosonde balloon drift statistics [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research, 2011
[1] The drift of radiosonde balloons during their ascent has generally been considered a negligible factor in applications involving radiosonde observations. However, several applications envisioned for observations from the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Reference Upper Air Network (GRUAN) require estimates of balloon drift.

Vertical Observational Evidence of Dust Aerosol Radiative Forcing on the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Over the Taklimakan Desert, China

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
We conducted the first‐ever observational particle‐sounding experiment within the Taklimakan Desert—the world's second‐largest shifting sand desert—capturing the vertical structure of dust aerosols and providing novel observational findings on dust aerosol‐atmospheric boundary layer interactions.

Assessment of the Accuracy of the Saastamoinen Model and VMF1/VMF3 Mapping Functions with Respect to Ray-Tracing from Radiosonde Data in the Framework of GNSS Meteorology

Remote Sensing, 2020
In this paper, we assess, in the framework of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) meteorology, the accuracy of GNSS propagation delays corresponding to the Saastamoinen zenith hydrostatic delay (ZHD) model and the Vienna Mapping function VMF1/VMF3 (

N‐FOREWARNS: Regional Nowcasting of Surface Water Flooding With a 3‐h Lead Time Predictability Limit

Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
N‐FOREWARNS produces surface water flood predictions on hourly lead times (nowcasting timescales). During a user engagement workshop, experts reported that N‐FOREWARNS produces few false alarms and high warning accuracy, but often misses minor impact floods.

Intra-hour cloud index forecasting with data assimilation [PDF]

, 2019
We introduce a computational framework to forecast cloud index (CI)fields for up to one hour on a spatial domain that covers a city. Such intra-hour CI forecasts are important to produce solar power forecasts of utility scale solar power and distributed ...

Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

Retrieval of the optical properties of tropospheric aerosols over Athens, Greece combining a 6-wavelength Raman-lidar and the CALIPSO VIS-NIR lidar system: Case-study analysis of a Saharan dust intrusion over the Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]

, 2007
The National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) 6-wavelength (355, 387, 407, 532, 607 and 1064 nm) Raman lidar system has been used to derive the aerosol optical properties (e.g. the lidar ratio, the aerosol backscatter and extinction profile) and the
