A new study published in Earth’s Futurewarns that a projected rise in global temperature may cause an irreversible shift in ...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, commonly referred to as the "AMOC," is a system of ocean currents confined ...

Higher global temperatures mean the intertropical convergence zone could shift south — throwing off precipitation trends for ...

Armed with that information, scientists are more focused than ever on creating a model that can predict ... it has far-reaching effects on atmospheric circulation and global climate.

This cooling, often associated with La Niña conditions, triggers a complex chain reaction in global atmospheric circulation patterns, ultimately pushing these rivers of moisture toward higher ...

This project will start with an idealized ... current numerical models is the extreme range of scales involved: from processes happening on the length scales of individual cloud droplets, to the large ...

Mars does have an atmosphere ... away from predictions based on idealized conditions once change begins to occur. “Climate feedbacks are really difficult to model accurately,” Kite cautioned.

General circulation models, on the other hand, which have dominated weather prediction for the last 50 years, use complex equations to model changes in the atmosphere and give accurate projections ...

Geospace is a term that scientists use to describe the region around our planet that includes Earth's upper atmosphere and the surrounding space. With the new model, called Multiscale Atmosphere ...

Correctly initializing the fire within coupled fire-atmosphere models is critical for producing accurate ... the best results in terms of resolving the fire-induced vertical circulation and fire ...
