The study, published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, identifies cloud–radiation feedback as the dominant source behind ...

A new study is helping scientists clarify how clouds can affect climate, while also dimming the prospects for some proposed ...

We haven’t figured out exactly what gives them their shape, determines altitude – or makes them rain when they do. But ...

Patrick Taylor, the deputy science lead for the mission known as ARCSIX, for Arctic Radiation Cloud Aerosol Surface Interaction Experiment, told Space.com. This bold mission to one of the world's ...

Clouds are transient collections of particles that interact strongly with visible radiation: they are transient in the sense that the particles in a cloud are continuously evolving in size and ...

“Cirrus clouds — high, wispy clouds visible in the distant atmosphere on relatively clear days — absorb and trap more radiation, warming the Earth,” while “stratus or stratocumulus ...

NGC 4941 dazzles in a new Hubble image, showcasing star-forming regions and a supermassive black hole that dramatically ...

A team of researchers have analyzed the impact of different cloud types on solar irradiance predictions. They found prediction models that factor in the physics of how clouds interact with sunlight ...

Computer modelling approach on impact of volcanic eruptions, wildfires and ship emissions reduction as natural analogues of solar radiation management ...

In late February, the ECMWF added cloud and radiation outputs to their first operational AI-driven weather model, AIFS V1, offering a new kind of forecast for solar radiation forecasting.

Experts say the ozone layer and cloud cover act as protective shields from UV radiation. Changes in the amount of ozone in the atmosphere and cloud cover determine the UV radiation reaching the ...
