New clues to air circulation in the atmosphere
Air circulates above the Earth in four distinct cells, with two either side of the equator, says new research out today (21 August) in Science. view more (2008-08-22)
RAS PN 02/25 Second Generation Weather Satellite Set For Launch
Recent floods in the UK and across much of Europe seem to support suggestions that our planet's weather is becoming increasingly extreme and unpredictable. Certainly, there could hardly be a better time for the launch of a new, state-of-the-art weather satellite. The first in a series of Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) spacecraft is scheduled... view more... (2002-08-22)
Satellite shows regional variation in warming from sun during solar cycle
A NASA satellite designed, built and controlled by the University of Colorado at Boulder is expected to help scientists resolve wide-ranging predictions about the coming solar cycle peak in 2012 and its influence on Earth's warming climate, according to the chief scientist on the project. view more (2007-11-14)

Earthquakes in the sky
AN AFTERNOON shower in London may have more in common with an earthquake in California than you`d think, because both processes obey similar statistical rules. The scientists who discovered the link say thinking about rain as a kind of "earthquake in the sky" may help improve models of the weather. ... view more... (2002-05-01)

The Sun`s Twisted Mysteries
Solar physicists at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL, University College London) in Surrey have found new clues to the thirty year old puzzle of why the Sun ejects huge bubbles of electrified gas, laced with magnetic field, known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs). In a paper published this month in the Journal of Solar Physics, they... view more... (2002-08-30)
