TL;DR: In this paper, physical processes responsible for abnormally wet condition in the Central Intermountain West (CIW) of the United States in June 2009 were investigated, and it was illustrated that persistent rainy conditions over the CIW during June 2009 are associated with a pronounced circumglobal teleconnection pattern, which is characterized as a short Rossby wave train along the jet stream waveguide with a wave number 5 structure.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that current groundwater storage in the Central Valley will likely continue to diminish even further in 2016, regardless of the current state of California's drought status.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Barents and Norwegian Seas have been unusually low during NAO+ winters and became highly persistent on a month-to-month basis throughout all seasons during a multi-year episode in which the Arctic reached peak warming.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined 1.5 yr of meteorological data provided by the 30m Alexander Tall Tower! (ATT) automatic weather station on the western Ross Ice Shelf from March 2011 to July 2012.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of rain snow threshold (RST) temperatures on snow depth simulation using the Community Land Model (CLM) and the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) was investigated.
