Reviews of Geophysics (ISSN 0096-1043) was established in 1963.Between February 1970 and November 1984 it was named Reviews of Geophysics and Space Physics (ISSN 0034-6853).
The Journal of Geophysical Research is a peer-reviewed scientific journal.It is the flagship journal of the American Geophysical Union. [1] It contains original research on the physical, chemical, and biological processes that contribute to the understanding of the Earth, Sun, and Solar System.
Based on his work at NOAA and NCAR, Wulfmeyer developed suitable sensor synergies to study turbulent transport processes in the convective boundary layer, mesoscale circulations in complex terrain, exchange processes at the land surface, entrainment processes at the top of the boundary layer, and generally to study land-atmosphere feedback.
Satellite geodesy is geodesy by means of artificial satellites—the measurement of the form and dimensions of Earth, the location of objects on its surface and the figure of the Earth's gravity field by means of artificial satellite techniques.
The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) is a quasiperiodic oscillation of the equatorial zonal wind between easterlies and westerlies in the tropical stratosphere with a mean period of 28 to 29 months.
Downscaling is any procedure to infer high-resolution information from low-resolution variables. This technique is based on dynamical or statistical approaches commonly used in several disciplines, especially meteorology, climatology and remote sensing.
Geophysics is a highly interdisciplinary subject, and geophysicists contribute to every area of the Earth sciences, while some geophysicists conduct research in the planetary sciences.
A mesocyclone from the Greensburg, Kansas tornado indicated on Doppler weather radar.. A mesocyclone is a type of mesovortex, approximately 1 to 10 km (0.6 to 6 mi) in diameter (the mesoscale of meteorology), within a convective storm. [6]
