Meteorologists at LMU have uncovered a significant correlation between events in the stratosphere and the accuracy of long-range weather forecasts in Northern Europe. The ability to predict weather conditions weeks in advance is crucial for various sectors such as agriculture, energy, and public health. However, the inherent chaos of weather systems often leads to low

For millions of years, the Earth’s surface temperature has remained relatively stable, thanks to a natural ‘thermostat’ that regulates the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide. This balance is crucial for sustaining life on our planet, as fluctuations in temperature can have significant impacts on our environment. One of the key components of this thermostat is

The Earth’s troposphere is the lowest layer of its atmosphere, containing eighty-five percent of the planet’s air. However, there are still significant gaps in our understanding of the atmospheric chemistry that influences changes in its composition. One crucial area of research is the formation and prevalence of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs), which have wide-ranging impacts

The water cycle is a fundamental process on Earth that is essential for life. However, predicting floods and droughts, despite the seemingly simple concept of the water cycle, remains a complex challenge due to human impacts, climate change, and geographic diversity. In order to accurately model the water cycle, high-resolution data and sophisticated modeling techniques
