During a La Niña, a counterpart to the El Niño weather pattern, drier than normal conditions are to be expected. But 2023, a La Niña year, turned out to be California’s 10th-wettest year on record.

The optimal land–-atmosphere coupling heights for Earth system models tend to be near the top of the surface layer. This finding provides a potential guideline for setting proper reference heights for ...

Designed for education, adaptable for research—the new Python-based framework makes climate dynamics more approachable for students and researchers Miami, FL — A team of researchers at the University ...

Hybrid climate modeling has emerged as an effective way to reduce the computational costs associated with cloud-resolving models while retaining their accuracy. The approach retains physics-based ...

This year’s rainy season is underway, which means atmospheric rivers are set to dump rain and snow across California and the Pacific Northwest. It also means that specially outfitted aircraft are ...

Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is a field of study that focuses on understanding, modeling, and reducing uncertainties in computational models and real-world systems. It is widely used in engineering ...

Weather, climate and hydrometeorology forecasts require accurate surface–atmosphere coupled modeling. This requires the use ...
