Abstract: Using more than three times as many stations and time series of daily data that am generally 1.5?3.0 times longer than those in a previous study, estimates of the natural variability, also known as climate noise, of surface ...

Abstract: Estimates of the natural variability of monthly mean temperature data from 107 U.S. stations are made. The natural variability of monthly means is defined as those interannual fluctuations that can be attributed to the ...

Abstract: This is the second (Paper II) of two papers on the characteristics of the hurricane?s inner core region as revealed by the research flight data of the National Hurricane Research Laboratory. This paper presents information ...

Abstract: Observational information from 533 radial flight legs executed by the National Hurricane Research Laboratory over a 13-year period (1957?69) is used to present the structural characteristics and the variability of the ...

Abstract: The evolution of the Southern Oscillation (SO) is examined in the time domain by computing lagged cross correlations between sea level pressures at Darwin and sea level or surface pressures at selected stations. Also, in ...

Abstract: A new global 2°?2° monthly sea surface temperature (SST) climatology, primarily derived from a 1950?1979-based SST climatology from the Climate Analysis Center (CAC), is presented and described. The CAC climatology has ...

Abstract: A Bayesian fingerprinting methodology for assessing anthropogenic impacts on climate was developed. This analysis considers the effect of increased CO2 on near-surface temperatures. A spatial CO2 fingerprint based on control ...
