They sweep across an area both long and wide, driven by the presence of very strong winds in the atmosphere. The unprecedented December warm spell included temperatures that rose to 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius) as far north as Wisconsin, creating evening temperatures that weather ...
Advances in Atmospheric Sciences is intensely interrelated with international peer journals in terms of similar citing pattern. However, there is still room for an increase in its academic visibility given the comparatively smaller reception in terms of cited references....
By the end of the century, the ice-free season could span several months in a year, even in winter months if high emissions become the norm. What is causing sea ice loss? Greenhouse gasses, according to study researcher Alexandra Jahn, associate professor of atmospheric and oceanic sciences a...
If two characteristic dunes are identified in a tile, only the larger one is included in the averaging for this plot. c An example of the H extraction from CALIPSO (pictured) over the Rub Al Khali. As the satellite passes over the dune field (gray region), the CALIPSO (green line) ...
The Hadley circulation is the most prominent atmospheric meridional circulation, reducing the radiatively driven equator-to-pole temperature gradient. While the Hadley cell extent varies by several degrees from year to year, the detailed dynamical mechanisms behind such variations have not been well eluci...
People who work in this field typically rely on the use of instrumental aircraft, satellites, radar, and computers to gather and analyze atmospheric data. Because of its accuracy and importance in environmental sciences, meteorology is a field growing very quickly, and many universities are offering...
