Predictability of Weather and Climate [PDF]

Earth and Space Science, 2019
AbstractThe past developments in the predictability of weather and climate are discussed from the point of view of nonlinear dynamical systems. The problems ahead for long‐range predictability extending into the climate time scale are also presented.

Comparison of Atmospheric Turbulence Characteristics over Sea Surface and Land Surface before, during, and after Typhoons

Atmosphere, 2022
The goal of the paper is to reveal discrepancies of turbulent variables over different surfaces (sea, island, land) based on the measurements taken on three towers during (including before and after) seven typhoon episodes from 2008 to 2018.

Estimating 1min rain rate distributions from numerical weather prediction [PDF]

, 2017
Internationally recognized prognostic models of rain fade on terrestrial and Earth-space EHF links rely fundamentally on distributions of one-minute rain rates. Currently, in Rec. ITU-R P.837-6, these distributions are generated using the Salonen Poiares-

The role of anthropogenic aerosols in the anomalous cooling from 1960 to 1990 in the CMIP6 Earth system models [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
The Earth system models (ESMs) that participated in the sixth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) tend to simulate excessive cooling in surface air temperature (TAS) between 1960 and 1990.

Characteristics of 1 year of observational data of VOCs, NO_x and O₃ at a suburban site in Guangzhou, China [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Guangzhou, one of China's megacities, is beset with frequent occurrence of high-concentration ozone events. In this study, online instruments were used to simultaneously monitor ozone, nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at GPACS (

Prediction Challenges From Errors in Tropical Pacific Sea Surface Temperature Trends

Frontiers in Climate, 2022
Models in the North American Multi-Model Ensemble (NMME) predict sea surface temperature (SST) trends in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean which are more positive than those observed over the period 1982–2020.

A Summary of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Space Weather Prediction Center Proton Event Forecast Performance and Skill

Space Weather, 2021
The effects of solar radiation storms at Earth are felt across a number of technology‐based industries. Energetic particles present during these storms impact electrical components on spacecraft, disrupt high frequency radio communications, and pose a ...

Why are severe weather and anomalous climate events often associated with the orthogonal convergence of airflows?

Weather and Climate Extremes, 2023
Severe weather often occurs in the areas where different cold-warm and dry-wet air masses converge orthogonally. The orthogonal convergence of two-adjacent air parcels can be observed from planetary-scale to synoptic-scale and meso-scale circulations ...
