While the world's most advanced climate models successfully reproduce heat waves once they are underway, they consistently ...

Researchers have developed the Smaller Than Earth Habitability Model (STEHM) to assess which planets can maintain ...

Researchers found climate models overlook key atmospheric processes that develop days before heatwaves, limiting warnings of ...

Extreme heatwaves are intensifying under climate change, yet their prediction remains limited by inadequate representation of land–atmosphere (L–A) interactions. Most deep learning–based weather ...

It is an urgent need to understand the ability of current artificial intelligence (AI) models in simulating atmospheric mesoscale aspects. This paper compares mesoscale kinetic energy spectra from an ...

This model reveals how vastly different the atmosphere was on ancient Earth, and how life may have first emerged. The key to unlocking the secrets of distant planets starts right here on Earth.

Traditional global climate models were like early digital cameras—they had only about 10,000 pixels to cover the entire planet. At that low resolution, big storm systems looked like blurry blobs. You ...

A number of hypotheses have been used to explain how free oxygen first accumulated in Earth’s atmosphere some 2.4 billion years ago, but a full understanding has proven elusive. Now a new model offers ...

Scientists searching for life beyond Earth have developed a new way to identify which distant planets might be able to ...

Researchers have created a dataset of the whole atmosphere, enabling new research to be conducted on previously difficult-to-study regions. Using a new data-assimilation system called JAGUAR-DAS, ...

Every breath a person takes draws from a gas mixture that has barely shifted in recorded history: roughly 78 percent nitrogen ...
