The influences of domain-specific meteorological knowledge and general visual–spatial abilities on the comprehension of simple weather maps were examined in a regression-based study involving a sample of participants with relatively low meteorologi

The spatial and temporal variability of atmospheric aerosols is not well understood, as most studies have been constrained to data sets that include few stations and are of short duration. Furthermore, all methods for quantifying atmospheric turbidit

Students learn more from introductory weather and climate courses when they can relate theoretical material to personal experience. The ubiquity of weather should make the link obvious, but instructors can foster this connection with a variety of sim

Spatial and temporal variability in global, diffuse, and horizontal direct irradiance and sunshine duration has been evaluated at eight stations in South Africa and two stations in Namibia where the time series range between 21 and 41 years. Global a

Aerosols affect climate by scattering and absorbing radiation and by modifying the physical and radiative properties of clouds. Despite their importance in the climate system, the temporal and spatial variability of aerosols is not well understood. T

A radiation-based model is employed to evaluate seasonal, interannual, and spatial variability within monthly averaged turbidity (the total column amount of aerosol) at eight stations in South Africa and 13 stations in Germany. Germany has a strong s

Aerosols affect climate by attenuating solar radiation and acting as cloud condensation nuclei. Despite their importance in the climate system, our understanding of the time-space variability of aerosols is fragmentary. Measurements and reliable esti

Aerosols have several important influences on the climate system. Among the more important of these are their roles in absorbing and scattering radiation, and as condensation nuclei in cloud-forming processes. Despite their importance, knowledge of t

Monthly-averaged climate and turbidity data from five sites in North America and Europe are employed to evaluate the relationships among monthly-averaged observed beam irradiation ( H b and H bn ), clear-sky beam irradiation ( H bc and H bnc ), sunsh

The U.S. Geological Survey is conducting a national assessment of coal resources. As part of that assessment, a geostatistical procedure has been developed to estimate the uncertainty of coal resources for the historical categories of geological assu
