The cloud fraction diurnal variation (CDV) regulates the Earth system’s radiative budget and balance, influencing atmospheric variables such as temperature and humidity, as well as physical processes ...

PARTNER CONTENT Scientists say the global climate crisis is continuing to intensify, and managing the situation requires increasingly innovative solutions. While governments wrestle with setting new ...

When clouds meet clear skies, cloud droplets evaporate as they mix with dry air. A new study has succeeded in capturing what happens in a model. Ultimately, this could lead to more accurate climate ...

Stratocumulus clouds form large carpets in the sky covering approximately 20% of the earth’s surface. They reflect around 40% of the sun’s radiation back into space. The international research team ...

For all of us concerned about the climate, 2023 was a grim year. One of the biggest uncertainties in predicting future climate change is the impact of clouds. Michael Allen speaks to the physicists ...

From the deck of an enormous research ship, surrounded by icebergs, Chelsea Bekemeier releases a tethered balloon into the air. She's standing in temperatures well below freezing, stationed deep in ...
