Year-round observations show gravity waves above Antarctica exhibit seasonal patterns that peak in winter, which could help researchers trace the source of this mysterious phenomenon.Read More »
A new study examines how unusual meteorology interacted with topography and other local conditions to generate some of the most devastating floods in American history.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
High-resolution modeling of summertime streamflow in the Pacific Northwest reveals the effects of glacial retreat on streamflow will vary by elevation.Read More »Mathematical Geophysics
The planet is heating up, but uncertainty still exists about how temperatures will change in specific regions. A new study examines sources of uncertainty in the meridional pattern of warming.Read More »Biogeosciences
A new algorithm incorporates randomness into stream channel formation and suggests the approach represents regions with variable flood magnitudes better than standard models.Read More »
