When discussing research in physics and in science more generally, it is common to ascribe
equal importance to the three components of the scientific trinity: theoretical, experimental …

The Amazon Basin plays key roles in the carbon and water cycles, climate change,
atmospheric chemistry, and biodiversity. It has already been changed significantly by human …

The ALADIN System is a numerical weather prediction (NWP) system developed by the
international ALADIN consortium for operational weather forecasting and research …

Flow in a stably stratified environment is characterized by anisotropic and intermittent
turbulence and wavelike motions of varying amplitudes and periods. Understanding …

After extensive efforts over the course of a decade, convective-scale weather forecasts with
horizontal grid spacings of 1–5 km are now operational at national weather services around …

Over the last 100 years, boundary layer meteorology grew from the subject of mostly near-
surface observations to a field encompassing diverse atmospheric boundary layers (ABLs) …

A one-dimensional (1-D) model for an enclosed basin (lake) is presented, which reproduces
temperature, horizontal velocities, oxygen, carbon dioxide and methane in the basin. All …

The Arctic climate system includes numerous highly interactive small-scale physical
processes in the atmosphere, sea ice, and ocean. During and since the International Polar …

Traditionally, soil science, atmospheric science, hydrology, plant science and agriculture
have been studied largely as separate subjects. These systems are clearly interlinked …

First-order turbulence closure schemes continue to be work-horse models for weather and
climate simulations. The turbulent Prandtl number, which represents the dissimilarity …
