We present an analytical model reproducing literature‐based numerical simulations of the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer (MABL) over a SST front, with wind blowing from the cold to the warm side. Turbulence is parameterised through a varying diffusion coefficient with two critical features: it is parabolic on the vertical and its mean value is decoupled from the MABL height (unlike an Ekman layer model). These two novel features are found essential to recover the internal structure of the MABL from numerical simulations. Different dynamical regimes are obtained and interpreted in terms of non‐dimensional numbers characterising the relative importance of terms driving the momentum equation. A closed‐form expression of the vertically integrated wind... |

Accurate forecasting of Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) is essential for the integration of the solar resource in an electrical grid. We present a novel data-driven method aimed at delivering up to 6 h hourly probabilistic forecasts of GHI on top of a localized solar energy source. The method does not require calibration to adapt to regional differences in cloud dynamics, and uses only one type of data, covering Europe and Africa. It is thus suited for applications that require a GHI forecast for solar energy sources at different locations with few ground measurements. Cloud dynamics are emulated using an analog method based on 5 years of hourly images of geostationary satellite-derived irradiance, without using any numerical prediction model. This... |

Ocean surface winds, currents, and waves play a crucial role in exchanges of momentum, energy, heat, freshwater, gases, and other tracers between the ocean, atmosphere, and ice. Despite surface waves being strongly coupled to the upper ocean circulation and the overlying atmosphere, efforts to improve ocean, atmospheric, and wave observations and models have evolved somewhat independently. From an observational point of view, community efforts to bridge this gap have led to proposals for satellite Doppler oceanography mission concepts, which could provide unprecedented measurements of absolute surface velocity and directional wave spectrum at global scales. This paper reviews the present state of observations of surface winds, currents, and waves, and it... |
