A sectional cloud microphysical model (CARMA Cloud) in the Community Earth System Model (CESM2)
AGU 2024
atmospheric sciences | 11 december 2024
Cheng-Cheng Liu, Yunqian Zhu, Lu Wang, Charles Bar...
Clouds are critical to global radiative forcing and the climate system of Earth. However, cloud simulations in climate models remain highly uncertain....

Apples-to-apples radiation comparisons speed the detection of Arctic climate change
AGU 2024
atmospheric sciences | 11 december 2024
Jonah Shaw, Jennifer E. Kay, David Schneider
Spectrally-resolved observations of radiation (such as those made by NASAs Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument) provide a strict constraint...

What controls the rapid Arctic warming since 1980?
AGU 2024
atmospheric sciences | 11 december 2024
Ash Gilbert, Jennifer E. Kay, Edward Blanchard-Wri...
The Arctic surface temperature (70-90°N) is increasing at 4 times the global rate, an amplification factor that CMIP models struggle to replicate. Thi...

Competing and synergistic climate effects of anthropogenic aerosols and greenhouse gases
AGU 2024
global environmental change | 09 december 2024
Yue Dong, Jennifer E. Kay, Clara Deser, Antonietta...
Anthropogenic aerosols (AER) and greenhouse gases (GHG) the leading drivers of the forced historical change produce different large-scale climate re...

The impact of definition differences on projections of an ice-free Arctic Ocean
AGU 2024
global environmental change | 09 december 2024
Alexandra Jahn, Marika M. Holland, Jennifer E. Kay
The current generation of global climate models predict that ice-free conditions in September will occur for the first time by mid-century, and potent...
