Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow bands of water vapor that bring warm, moist air to Earth's polar regions. Our understanding of how ARs affect polar ice sheets and sea ice is sensitive to the AR detection method chosen. In this research, we find that some AR detection methods are better suited for marine areas, while others excel in the interior of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. These results will help constrain uncertainty in projections of polar environmental change linked to ARs.

CMA-CPSv4, the latest climate prediction system of the China Meteorological Administration, incorporates aerosol prediction and aerosol–climate interactions. Twenty years of monthly initialized 30-day hindcasts show useful global skill for five major aerosol species up to 2 weeks, with skill during weeks 3–4 mainly over the tropics and parts of North America, southern India, and southeastern China.

This study advances our understanding of the representation of the diurnal cycle of precipitation (DCP) in numerical models. By systematically comparing three convection schemes with different trigger and closure treatments using a single-column model, this study identifies the physical mechanisms responsible for these biases and evaluates the effectiveness of various modifications in improving DCP simulations over China.

This work studies the dynamical linkages, local wave parameters, and subseasonal predictability of three successive blocking events that are associated with continual extreme events during May–June 2023. These blocks are interconnected via downstream Rossby wave energy dispersion and are dominated by the regime of slowly propagating, large-amplitude planetary-scale waves. Predictability beyond two weeks depends on capturing upstream quasi-stationary troughs and the associated energy dispersion.

To improve drought early warnings, we tested if past drought patterns, global climate signals, or their combination best predict future droughts across Iran. Using thirty years of rainfall data and nine computer models, we found no single approach works everywhere. Combined methods excel in dry areas, while single methods suit coasts. This proves we must abandon uniform tools and build customized, location-specific forecasting systems to better protect communities from climate hazards.

Solar power plants are expanding rapidly worldwide, but their impacts on local climate remain uncertain. In this study, we developed a coupled model that explicitly represents interactions between solar panels, land surface, and the atmosphere. Evaluation against satellite observations showed improved simulation of land surface temperature over solar farms. Simulations show that solar farms can cool the land surface, warm near-surface air, reduce incoming sunlight, and alter rainfall patterns.

The dynamic evolution and interactions of aerosols are first incorporated into the China Meteorological Administration Climate Prediction System version 4 (CMA-CPSv4). This paper evaluates the prediction system's simulation performance for aerosols. The results show that the CMA-CPSv4 reasonably simulates the spatial distribution of aerosols. The reasonable simulation of aerosols is fundamental for studying the impact of aerosols on climate prediction in our next work.

This study investigates how well operational models simulate the diurnal cycle of summer rainfall over China. Comparing three reanalyses shows all capture nocturnal precipitation peak but differ in afternoon rainfall timing: JRA‑55 and MERRA‑2 match observations better, while ERA5 exhibits a 3-hour phase advance. These differences are linked to how large-scale forcing is use in convection parameterization, underscoring the critical role of trigger on cumulus convection.

Cities face a major challenge in tracking how wind and air pollution move through complex building clusters. Common numerical models often struggle to balance accuracy with calculating speed. We developed a new simulation system that automatically adjusts its focus to where the air is moving rapidly. By testing this against observations, it significantly improves predictions of wind and pollution. This tool helps urban planners design healthier cities by better identifying how pollutants travel.

Nearly a century of ozone concentration measurements (the last half continuous) is now available in the northern mid-latitude troposphere. Atmospheric models cannot yet accurately simulate that record. We compare measured and simulated long-term changes and seasonal cycles of background ozone to quantify some model shortcomings, and suggest that their important causes may be inadequate model treatments of ozone precursor evolution and vertical transport out of the planetary boundary layer.

The wind speed needed to lift dust from surfaces governs the highest uncertainty in emission models, making it the root cause of dust forecasting errors. We developed iDust-ut, a global threshold dataset by fusing ground observations, satellite data, and reanalysis products. Tests with the iDust model show doubled severe dust storm prediction accuracy. The dataset works directly in any model with built-in adaptation for wind biases, substantially improving operational dust forecasting worldwide.

Aerosol cooling has been identified as a key driver of the cold biases in CMIP6 (sixth Coupled Model Inter-comparison Project) models. We demonstrate the critical role of sulfate burden anomaly and the contribution of sulfur removal processes. Faster sulfate deposition directly lowers atmospheric sulfate levels, while enhanced SO₂ deposition reduces the precursor for sulfate formation. The systematically short sulfate lifetime implies that model improvements should focus on SO₂ deposition processes, rather than sulfate deposition.

Observational records show that the Asian monsoon underwent substantial changes during the early 20th century, including a wetting trend over South Asia and a southward shift in rainfall over East Asia. We show that increasing European sulphate aerosol emissions played a crucial role in shaping the monsoon rainfall trends. This has important implications for reducing uncertainties in monsoon projections, particularly in light of the diverse future aerosol emission scenarios for the region.

HighResMIP2 is a model intercomparison project focusing on high-resolution global climate models, that is, those with grid spacings of 25 km or less in the atmosphere and ocean, using simulations of decades to a century in length. We are proposing an update of our simulation protocol to make the models more applicable to key questions for climate variability and hazard in present-day and future projections and to build links with other communities to provide more robust climate information.

We report significant global tropospheric ozone increases in 1995–2017 based on extensive aircraft and ozonesonde observations. Using GEOS-Chem (Goddard Earth Observing System chemistry model) multi-decadal global simulations, we find that changes in global anthropogenic emissions, in particular the rapid increases in aircraft emissions, contribute significantly to the increases in tropospheric ozone and resulting radiative impact.

This paper describes an experimental protocol focused on sudden stratospheric warmings to be carried out by subseasonal forecast modeling centers. These will allow for inter-model comparisons of these major disruptions to the stratospheric polar vortex and their impacts on the near-surface flow. The protocol will lead to new insights into the contribution of the stratosphere to subseasonal forecast skill and new approaches to the dynamical attribution of extreme events.

Short summary
A full understanding of ozone in the troposphere requires investigation of its temporal variability over all timescales. Model simulations show that the northern midlatitude ozone seasonal cycle shifted with industrial development (1850–2014), with an increasing magnitude and a later summer peak. That shift reached a maximum in the mid-1980s, followed by a reversal toward the preindustrial cycle. The few available observations, beginning in the 1970s, are consistent with the model simulations.

Short summary
The CMIP6 ESMs systematically underestimate TAS anomalies in the NH midlatitudes, especially from 1960 to 1990. The anomalous cooling is concurrent in time and space with anthropogenic SO2 emissions. The spurious drop in TAS is attributed to the overestimated aerosol concentrations. The aerosol forcing sensitivity cannot well explain the inter-model spread of PHC biases. And the cloud-amount term accounts for most of the inter-model spread in aerosol forcing sensitivity.

Short summary
We give an overview of the Institute of Atmospheric Physics–Chinese Academy of Sciences subseasonal-to-seasonal ensemble forecasting system and Madden–Julian Oscillation forecast evaluation of the system. Compared to other S2S models, the IAP-CAS model has its benefits but also biases, i.e., underdispersive ensemble, overestimated amplitude, and faster propagation speed when forecasting MJO. We provide a reason for these biases and prospects for further improvement of this system in the future.
