Probability forecasts – Part 1: ensembles and probabilistic forecasts

Weather, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 82-88, March 2026.
Ensemble weather forecasts have been in use for many years to help forecasters understand uncertainty in weather predictions but are now becoming core to some operational Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) systems. Ensembles offer greater predictive skill and information content than deterministic forecasts but are more complex to interpret and ...

The nonlinear effects in the ionospheric plasma generated by strong thunderstorms seen by DEMETER satellite

Archives of Mechanics
The terrestrial ionosphere is mainly a plasma region which is very sensitive to different disturbances. A wide range of plasma instabilities can develop in this region, which are often nonlinear processes and leading to the development of plasma ...

Machine Learning‐Based Forecasting of Ice Water Path for Storm Detection and Tracking Using Geostationary Infrared and Passive Microwave Data

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This study presents a proof of concept for a storm Detection, Delineation, and Tracking (DDT) method based on the vertical integral of condensed water and ice content—namely the Ice Water Path (IWP). Traditional DDT methods rely solely on regularly sampled variables, such as brightness temperatures, which do not directly capture storm ...

Spatial analysis of storm depths from an Arizona raingage network [PDF]

, 1986
Eight years of summer rainstorm observations are analyzed by a dense network of 93 raingages operated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, in the 150 km Walnut Gulch experimental catchment near Tucson, Arizona. Storms are

Characteristics of Negative Cloud‐To‐Ground Lightning Flashes Associated With Their Peak Currents of First Return Strokes

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the characteristics of negative cloud‐to‐ground (CG) lightning flashes across varying peak current (PCs) ranges by combining 3D location data from 2,597 negative CG flashes with radar observations. The flashes were classified into five PC bins: −25 kA < PC < 0 kA, −50 kA < PC < −25 kA, −75 kA < PC ≤ −50 kA, −100 kA < PC

Global GNSS Observation of Mesoscale Ionospheric Irregularities (2006–2024)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale ionospheric irregularities are statistically investigated using an unprecedented 19‐year long‐term global GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) TEC (total electron content) data set. These irregularities are represented by ionospheric fluctuations within a 5°× ${}^{\circ}\times $ 3.75° ${}^{\circ}$ (latitude by longitude) region ...

Machine Learning Emulation of Precipitation From km‐Scale UK Regional Climate Simulations Using a Diffusion Model

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract High‐resolution climate simulations are valuable for understanding climate change impacts. This has motivated use of regional convection‐permitting climate models (CPMs), but these are very computationally expensive. We present a convection‐permitting model generative emulator (CPMGEM), to skilfully emulate precipitation simulations by a 2.2 ...

Precipitation Characteristics and Thermodynamic‐Convection Coupling in Global Kilometer‐Scale Simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract We compare three global kilometer‐scale models (ICON, IFS and NICAM) to clarify the advantages and challenges of high‐resolution global weather and climate modeling, using different approaches to represent convection, from fully parameterized to fully explicit.
