Stratospheric turbulence measurements and models for aerospace plane design [PDF]

open access: yes
Progress in computational atmospheric dynamics is exhibiting the ability of numerical simulation to describe instability processes associated with turbulence observed at altitudes between 15 and 25 km in the lower stratosphere.

Observation of Mountain Waves and Secondary Gravity Waves in the Mesosphere Lower Thermosphere Above Patagonia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract We find observational evidence for mountain waves (MWs) and secondary gravity waves (2GWs) in the OH*(3‐1) layer above Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. On the night of 21–22 May 2018, the Advanced Mesospheric Temperature Mapper (AMTM) obtained temperatures at ∼84 ${\sim} 84$ km.

Gravity waves in the middle atmosphere: Recent progress and needed studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The recent recognition of the important role played by gravity waves in the large-scale circulation and thermal structure of the mesosphere and lower thermosphere has stimulated considerable research on their properties and their middle atmosphere ...

Oceanic Eddy Modulation of Wintertime Air‐Sea Coupling and Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer Winds Over the East China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract This study examined the effects of air‐sea coupling and oceanic mesoscale eddies on wintertime low‐level wind events within the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) over the Kuroshio front zone in the East China Sea. High‐resolution (eddy‐resolving, 5 km) and low‐resolution (50 km) simulations were conducted using prescribed sea surface ...

Plume‐Coupled Long‐Range Spotting Drove the Explosive Spread of the 2018 Camp Fire

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extreme fire spread during the 2018 Camp Fire in northern California was driven by organized long‐range spotting tightly coupled to plume dynamics. Doppler radar and satellite observations reveal distinct regions of ember lofting and downwind fallout within the convective column, forming direct pathways for firebrand transport several (up to ...

A review of the meteorological parameters which affect aerial application [PDF]

open access: yes
The ambient wind field and temperature gradient were found to be the most important parameters. Investigation results indicated that the majority of meteorological parameters affecting dispersion were interdependent and the exact mechanism by which these

Design Spectra for Evaluating the Dynamic Response of Buildings Under Thunderstorm Downbursts

open access: yesBuildings
This paper presents a spectral method to determine the effect of thunderstorm downbursts on structures. The method integrates the dynamic response of single oscillators subject to input accelerations induced by wind, based on classical earthquake ...

Asymmetric Changes in the Cooling Capacity of China's Lakes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Lakes significantly influence local climate, yet a systematic assessment of their cooling effect across diverse regions remains limited. This study develops a multi‐metric (spatial extent, magnitude, and efficiency) framework to evaluate the spatiotemporal patterns of Lake Cooling Capacity (LCC) for 265 major Chinese lakes from 1980 to 2022 ...

Convective Biases in the US DOE Global Storm‐Resolving Model: Insights From Regionally Refined Simulations During the CACTI Campaign

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Accurately simulating convective processes in complex terrain remains a critical challenge for global storm‐resolving models (GSRMs). This study systematically evaluates moist convective biases in the Regionally Refined Mesh configuration of the U.S.

GAM-STTD: a spatiotemporal tropospheric delay correction model for time-series InSAR in complex mountainous regions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth
Tropospheric delay remains a critical error source in time-series interferometric synthetic aperture radar (TS-InSAR), particularly in mountainous and plateau regions where seasonal stratification and stochastic turbulence coexist.
