Joint Assimilation of SMOS brightness Temperature and GRACE...
Using the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS), Global Modeling and Assimilation Office researchers assimilated multi-resolution, multi-sensor satellite observations with the aim of improving model estimates of the vertical soil moisture profile.
Decline in Lower Stratospheric Ozone Attributed to Circulati...
Studies with the MERRA-2 reanalysis show that transport changes between 1998 and 2016 most likely caused ozone in the extratropical lower stratosphere to decline. MERRA-2 runs at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS).
Creating a Computing Center That Can Solve Science’s Most Co...
Fueled by over 2 megawatts of power and cutting-edge equipment from the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS), the Virginia Tech Biocomplexity Institute's new data center is ready to help collaborators address issues ranging from disasters to dise...
No Planets Needed: NASA Study Shows Disk Patterns Can Self-G...
A new NASA study shows rings, arcs and spirals in disks around stars may not be caused by planets. They may self-generate, per simulations run on the Discover supercomputing cluster at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS).
Active Winter Weather Forecasted Over North America Followin...
In its routine 10-day forecasts, the global Goddard Earth Observing System forward processing (GEOS-FP) system successfully tracked the development of the first major mid-winter stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) event in 5 years. GEOS-FP runs 4 times per
Tracking El Niño
NASA Goddard's Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) combined satellite observations with model data to recreate the 2015-2016 El Niño in 3D. The GMAO computed the synthesis at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS)
Stratospheric Intrusion-Influenced Ozone Air Quality Exceeda...
NASA's MERRA-2 Reanalysis is an ideal candidate for the scientific studies of stratospheric intrusions since it is such a high-resolution global dataset and also assimilates both ozone and meteorological observations. MERRA-2 runs at the NASA Center for C
