In this study, the RAMS@CSU cloud-resolving mesoscale forecast model is run in a real-time configuration with a sophisticated microphysical package and multiple nested grids, in which the smallest grid has increased vertical resolution in the lower boundary layer. Using this configuration, two specific fog events are simulated in 3-D using initialization data with a horizontal resolution of 40 km.

From self-driving cars to magnetic trains, the future of transportation is full of exciting possibilities. Hit the fast lane with Luna Li to see what the next 100 years of transportation may have in store for the human race.

Gauges business leaders' opinions about national and state economic trends and how their industries will perform in the coming quarter.

It is shown that a general class of nonlinear partial differential equations -- including those frequently used in predicting atmospheric motions -- can be converted to computational form by either the "finite difference" or "spectral" method to yield formally identical equations.

EDDI, which stands for Evaporative Demand Drought Index, is a drought index that can serve as an indicator of both rapidly evolving "flash" droughts (developing over a few weeks) and sustained droughts (developing over months but lasting up to years).

From solar-powered parking lots to algae biofuels, find out what types of power sources the people of the future may tap into. Power up with Luna Li to see what the next 100 years of energy may have in store for the human race.
