The MATERHORN: Unraveling the Intricacies of Mountain Weather
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)merging application areas such as air pollution in megacities, wind energy, urban security, and operation of unmanned aerial vehicles have intensified scientific and societal interest in mountain meteorology. To address ... -
Trigonal Ice Crystals in Earth’s Atmosphere
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)e are all familiar with the hexagonal shape of snow and ice crystals, and it is well established that their sixfold symmetry is derived from the arrangement of water molecules in a hexagonal crystal structure. However, ... -
Monitoring and Modeling the Terrestrial System from Pores to Catchments: The Transregional Collaborative Research Center on Patterns in the Soil–Vegetation–Atmosphere System
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)ost activities of humankind take place in the transition zone between four compartments of the terrestrial system: the unconfined aquifer, including the unsaturated zone; surface water; vegetation; and atmosphere. The mass, ... -
Improving the Display of Wind Patterns and Ocean Currents
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)ble effort has gone into building numerical weather and ocean prediction models during the past 50 years. Less effort has gone into the visual representation of output from those forecast models and many of the techniques ... -

A Viable Alternative for Conducting Cost-Effective Daily Atmospheric Soundings in Developing Countries
(American Meteorological Society, 2013)e-collected data are of vital importance to a wide variety of studies that aim at understanding the interaction between land surface and the atmosphere, among others. However, atmospheric measurements in developing countries, ... -
Using Weather Forecasts to Help Manage Meningitis in the West African Sahel
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)nderstanding and acting on the link between weather and meningitis in the Sahel could help improve vaccine distribution and save lives. People living there know that meningitis epidemics occur in the dry season and end ... -
Understanding ENSO Diversity
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)l Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a naturally occurring mode of tropical Pacific variability, with global impacts on society and natural ecosystems. While it has long been known that El Niño events display a diverse ... -
Awareness of Both Type 1 and 2 Errors in Climate Science and Assessment
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)of error and uncertainty is an essential component of science and is crucial in policy-relevant disciplines, such as climate science. We posit here that awareness of both ?false positive? and ?false negative? errors is ... -
Data Fusion Enables Better Recognition of Ceiling and Visibility Hazards in Aviation
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)ow cloud ceilings and poor visibility claim the lives of more general aviation (GA) pilots and passengers than any other cause of weather-related GA accidents. Experience shows that instrument-rated pilots as well as those ... -
