RETRIEVALS OF ANTARCTIC SEA ICE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES FROM SATELLITE RADAR ALTIMETRY
(2021)Satellite observations have been used in sea ice research throughout the last 40+ years and have brought to light substantial changes in the global sea ice coverage. More recently, satellite altimetry has become a valuable ... -
The Role of Soil Hydro-physical Properties in Land-atmosphere Interactions and Regional Climate
(2021)Soil hydro-physical properties are necessary components in weather and climate simulation; yet, the parameter inaccuracies introduce considerable uncertainty in the representation of surface water and energy fluxes. The ... -
Satellite Remote Sensing of Smoke Particle Optical Properties, Their Evolution and Controlling Factors
(2021)The optical and chemical properties of biomass burning (BB) smoke particles greatly affect the impact wildfires have on climate and air quality. Previous work has demonstrated some links between smoke properties and factors ... -
EXPLORING RECENT DIRECTIONS IN INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT MODELING RESEARCH: IMPLICATIONS FOR SCENARIO ANALYSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AND IMPACTS USING THE GCAM MODEL
(2021)Integrated assessment models (IAMs) are essential analytical tools in climate change science. There is wide recognition of the need of credible IAM scenarios for guidance on developing climate change mitigation and adaptation ... -
Investigations in Earth System Predictability
(2021)This thesis covers several projects in predictability, prediction, and data assimilation of the Earth system: 1. The first is an analysis of the predictability of the atmosphere–ocean system. Due to the physical coupling ...
