This comes as GlobalChange.gov was taken down, along with information on how global warming is affecting the US.
This paper describes the theory and implementation of a trajectory optimization layer operating within an energy-aware, airborne, dynamic data-driven application system (EA-DDDAS). The work addresses ...
How does a cloud stay cool under direct sunlight––or seem to vanish in infrared? In nature, phenomena like white cumulus ...
The planet Venus is like Earth’s worst twin – roughly the same size but with a thick layer of acid clouds over a crushing, hellish atmosphere. Its clouds in particular have been a source of interest, ...
In a groundbreaking study, scientists have shown that climate change, driven by human activity, was detectable as early as the 1880s, well before the widespread advent of fossil fuel-powered vehicles.
The applications are numerous, opening the door to a veritable energy revolution.cooling systems in general, but also the ...
Solar flares can reshape exoplanet atmospheres within days, affecting temperature, winds, and potential habitability.
Understanding how wildfires influence our planet's climate is a daunting challenge. Although fire occurs nearly everywhere on ...
(THE CONVERSATION) Heat domes, which can send temperatures soaring, occur when a persistent region of high pressure traps heat over a large area. A heat dome can linger for days to weeks, leaving the ...
This edition of Weather Tidbits will be discussing how atmospheric temperature profiles, and how a temperature inversion can ...
Time-resolved images of the light emission profiles of RF atmospheric pressure plasmas are presented. As the current increases, the emission profile evolves from bell shaped to double humped. At ...
The vertical distribution of aerosols plays a fundamental role in shaping air quality, influencing energy balance through radiative forcing, and impacting atmospheric dynamics. In the Eastern ...
