Weather, climate and hydrometeorology forecasts require accurate surface–atmosphere coupled modeling. This requires the use of proper coupling heights in computing surface turbulent fluxes ...

Faculty provide the fundamentals of atmospheric processes and properties, so you can grow with this exciting field. From field measurements to computer modeling to studies of air pollution transport ...

ESMs are composed of model components that simulate individual parts of the climate system (such as the atmosphere, ocean, land, and sea ice) and the exchange of energy and mass between these parts.

CW3E provides water cycle science, technology and outreach to support effective policies and practices that address the impacts of extreme weather and water events on the environment, people and the ...

Armed with that information, scientists are more focused than ever on creating a model that can predict atmospheric rivers, which so far have evaded that ability. Atmospheric rivers — ribbons of ...

The air above the poles is cold. The cold air sinks creating high pressure. The air moves towards the equatorial low-pressure zone, and warms up when it meets the land or ocean. At around 60 ...
