“The possibilities for applying data science and computational science approaches are endless,” said Jenni Evans, director of ICDS and professor of meteorology and atmospheric science.
Kelly Núñez Ocasio, Meteorology and Atmospheric Science student, has received an Alfred P. Sloan Minority Graduate Scholarship.
A hailstone of more than four inches is “certainly very large,” says Matthew Kumjian, a meteorologist at Penn State University.
Rachel Gutierrez, a graduate student at Penn State and co-author of the paper, found a connection between a storm updraft’s rotational velocity, or how fast it is spinning, and larger hail size.
A good grip can mean the difference between life and death for lizards in a hurricane.
Michael Mann has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences.
After tornadoes hit his southwestern Pennsylvania hometown in 1998, 9-year-old Kyle Imhoff learned a few things. Weather events could be very dangerous — but also fascinating.
The American Meteorological Society (AMS) recently created a national award in honor of Penn State meteorology alumnus and weather pioneer Warren Washington.
Penn State researchers found that a common tool used to understand carbon dioxide fluxes, or how the gas moves between the atmosphere and ecosystems, may be overconfident because of uncertainties in the release of carbon dioxide by the combustion of fossil fuels.
A Penn State led-effort to understand greenhouse sources and sinks finds that twice as much methane is seeping into the atmosphere than the Environmental Protection Agency estimates.
Congratulations Kelly.
Snowfall trends in Washington, and other East Coast cities, are leading scientists to this conclusion: Global warming, may paradoxically be contributing to an uptick in big East Coast snowstorms.
Every minute counts when it comes to predicting severe weather.
For the first time, meteorologists have observed persistent drizzle under conditions where snow would be expected.
Equilibrium climate sensitivity may be underestimated in individual climate models, according to a team of climate scientists.
Pennsylvania’s ecosystem has already been permanently altered due to climate change.
Meteorology students relied on Penn State resources to get company off the ground.
Michael Mann, a professor of atmospheric science at Penn State University, tells Inverse increased analysis is only the beginning.
“This was an extremely terrible scenario for a landfalling hurricane,” said Anthony Didlake Jr., an assistant professor of meteorology at Penn State.
Our atmosphere behaves like a fluid, changing its flow and direction when it runs into an obstacle.
Using a new approach developed at Penn State’s Center for Advanced Data Assimilation and Predictability Techniques, researchers were better able to predict models for forecasting Hurricane Harvey.
