Underestimated Arctic “Radiator Fin” Effect in Climate Model Simulations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The Earth's energy balance is crucial for maintaining a stable climate. Studies have shown accelerated net energy accumulation by the Earth in recent decades, mainly due to enhanced solar absorption. Meanwhile, observations show a pronounced increase in Arctic (north of 70N) outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), which acts as “radiator fins” to ...

Evaluation of Low‐Level Clouds, Temperature, and Surface Radiation Using a Model, Two Reanalyses, and Southern Ocean Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Low‐level clouds over the Southern Ocean (SO) exert a strong influence on surface radiation, yet their representation in reanalyses and climate models remains uncertain. We evaluated cloud properties and surface radiative fluxes from ERA5, MERRA‐2, and the CAM‐ATRAS model using observations obtained over the SO by Japan's R/V Shirase during ...

Strong Diurnal‐Dependent Meteorological Control on Long‐Term Variations of Cloud Droplet Number Concentration

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract While long‐term cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) changes are commonly attributed to aerosols, the role of meteorological factors remains poorly explored. Here, we perform a time‐resolved contribution analysis of long‐term CDNC variations using nearly two decades of geostationary observations over four Atlantic subtropical regions. The

Diurnal Pulses in Tropical Cyclones as Convectively Coupled Gravity Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract This study uses convection‐permitting simulations to examine the vertical extent, propagation, and nighttime preference of diurnal pulses (DPs) in tropical cyclones (TCs). DPs are outward‐moving rings of cooler brightness temperatures near the storm center and may indicate TC intensification.

Predicting Electrically Generated Hydrogen Oxides From Ultraviolet Radiation Emissions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Electrical discharges such as lightning and corona discharges generate extreme amounts of hydroxyl radical (OH), the atmosphere's most important oxidizer, enough for electrical discharges to be a globally significant source of OH. However, there are few field measurements of electrically generated OH (LOH), hindering attempts to better ...
