LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - The weight of the air surrounding us is known as barometric or atmospheric pressure. Low and high barometric pressure can impact our bodies differently; factors such as ...

Barometric pressure sensors measure atmospheric pressure in a variety of applications, providing crucial data for weather forecasting, altitude measurement, and environmental monitoring. In the field ...

Clouds are important for the Earth's energy balance because they interact with radiation in different ways: On one hand, low clouds reflect incoming solar radiation and thus cool the Earth through a ...

Small changes in atmospheric pressure can start a landslide in certain weather conditions. Understanding why will help us to assess which slopes are at most risk of failing. Just over a decade ago, ...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Do you frequently wake up with a sinus headache, migraine, or joint pain just days before or on the day it rains in your area? If so, you’re not alone. And there’s a scientific ...

Is air rewriting the rules of climate science? NASA’s announcement last week of an atmospheric shift over North America is generating heated debate among climate scientists and meteorologists. It’s ...

Abrupt climate change is abundant in geological records, but climate models rarely have been able to simulate such events in response to realistic forcing. Here we report on a spontaneous abrupt ...
