Statistical Evidence on the Impact of Foreshock Effects on the Kelvin-Helmholtz Waves at the Earth’s Magnetopause
One important mechanism by which energy and mass is transferred into Earth’s magnetosphere is the formation of waves and vortices at the magnetopause. These waves and vortices can…
A reconciled satellite record reveals a negative low cloud feedback over the past 47 years
Low-cloud feedback continues to dominate uncertainty in climate sensitivity, with no direct observational estimate to date. Here we provide the first such estimate by combining sa…
Anomalous energy fluxes and feedback parameter over the course of ENSO events
Internal variability may provide constraints on the global temperature response to forcing. Previous work showed that ENSO induces atmospheric stratification anomalies that lead t…
Euler-Net: A Tendency Learning Framework for Robust Long-Term Soil Moisture Forecasting
Accurate simulation of soil moisture is foundemental in hydrological modeling and water resource management. While increasingly widely used in soil moisture simulations, deep lear…
Regional inversion shows promise in capturing extreme-event-driven CO2 flux anomalies but is limited by atmospheric CO2…
Extreme climate events are becoming more frequent, with poorly understood implications for carbon sequestration by terrestrial ecosystems. A better understanding will critically d…
Update on the Temperature Corrections of Global Air-Sea CO2 Flux Estimates
The oceans are a major carbon sink. Sea surface temperature (SST) is a crucial variable in the calculation of the air-sea carbon dioxide (CO2;) flux from surface observations. Any…
Predictable variations of the carbon sinks and atmospheric CO2 growth in a multi-model framework
Inter-annual to decadal variability in the strength of the land and ocean carbon sinks impede accurate predictions of year-to-year atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) growth rate. Su…
What is Mineral Informatics?
Minerals are information-rich materials that offer researchers a glimpse into the evolution of planetary bodies. Thus it is important to extract, analyze, and interpret this abund…
Effects of ambient fluids on particle size segregation in saturated debris flows
Size segregation, which is a robust feature of sheared granular mixtures and geophysical mass flow deposits, is found to diminish in the presence of a viscous fluid. We study this…
Balancing Earth's Deep Carbon Cycle
The deep carbon cycle of the Earth remains poorly understood in spite of its importance to the evolution of our planet. Here we consider estimated carbon fluxes for plume-related …
