How Can the Latent Heat Entrainment Flux in the Convective Boundary Layer be Characterized?
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract A proposed theoretical description of the latent heat entrainment flux at the top of a convective boundary layer (CBL) was tested. It is related to the vertical velocity scale times the ratio of the water vapor mixing ratio (WVMR) gradient to the Brunt‐Väisälä frequency. This relation was tested with different LiDAR and radiosonde measurements.

Comparing upper tropospheric humidity from microwave satellite instruments and IGRA radiosonde data
, 2010 In this study, Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU-B) and Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS) observations are compared to radiosonde data from the Integrated Global Radiosonde Archive (IGRA) dataset.

Extreme Atmospheric Moistening and Drying Events at Ny‐Ålesund and Their Relation to Weather Systems
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract Understanding the role of water vapor in Arctic amplification requires a detailed evaluation of its spatio‐temporal variability. In this work, we use an integrated water vapor (IWV) data set from a ground‐based microwave radiometer at Ny‐Ålesund, Svalbard, covering 2012–2024, to characterize temporal IWV variability.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract Atmospheric turbulence poses a major risk to aviation, and it is expected to intensify as a response to climate change. The probability density functions (PDFs) of dozens of different clear‐air turbulence (CAT) diagnostics have been found to shift to higher values in response to climate change, consistent with strengthened vertical wind shear ...

Determination of Radiosonde Station Elevation from Observational Data
Journal of Applied Meteorology, 2002 Correct radiosonde station elevation (balloon release height) is important in quality control of radiosonde soundings. Incorrect heights introduce errors in calculated temperature trends and numerical forecasts. Radiosonde metadata frequently contain erroneous information regarding station elevations.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.Abstract Atmospheric boundary layer height (ABLH) plays an important role in air–sea interactions and regional climate over the western North Pacific (WNP). Using ERA5 reanalysis data from 1979 to 2025, this paper investigates the interannual variability, monthly variations, and seasonal spatial patterns of ABLH.

Microphysics and Kinematics of a High Flash Rate Storm With a Bottom‐Heavy Charge Structure
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract An atypical thunderstorm with unusual lightning and charge structure characteristics propagated through Cordoba province, Argentina, during the austral warm season in late 2018. This storm exhibited echo tops near 10.5 km, with high lightning activity concentrated at low altitudes.
