Radiative Forcing and Ozone Depletion of a Decade of Satellite Megaconstellation Missions Open
Satellite megaconstellations (SMCs) are driving rapid increases in rocket launch and re-entry rates, emitting pollutants throughout the atmosphere. The environmental cost of SMCs lacks characterization to determine the need for regulation.…

Analysis of Historical Climate Scenarios of Turkey related to temperature and precipitation for comparing CMIP5 and CMIP6 protocols. Open
<p>In the last decade, records have been broken in Turkey's temperature and precipitation observations. In 2020, including the effect of increasing urbanization, the measured temperatures in Istanbul were about 3 &#176;C higher t…

Snow Cover Analysis of Turkey comparing to Historical Climate Scenarios of CMIP5 and CMIP6 protocols Open
<p>Profound changes have been observed in the precipitation pattern of Turkey due to climate change during the last decade. This variation in precipitation pattern affects the amount of snow cover and the temporal and spatial distrib…

Comparisons of historical CMIP5 and CMIP6 protocols for the drought indices of Turkey Open
<p>Located in the semi-arid region, Turkey is much more vulnerable to the drought effects of climate change. It is expected that the severity, duration, and frequency of drought episodes will increase due to climate change. The obser…

Heatwave Climate Variability of Historical CMIP5 and CMIP6 Protocols for Turkey Open
<p>Heatwaves occur due to atmospheric blockages and high-pressure systems' long-term stasis in the relevant regions. They are extreme weather events that negatively affect life. For example, in Turkey, wildfires during summer 2021 su…

Evaluation of NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis Precipitable Water Data Comparing to Radiosonde Observations for Turkey Open
Precipitable Water (PW) data of NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis Project (NNRP) model is evaluated by comparing to radiosonde data obtained from 8 locations of Turkey for the years between 2015 and 2017. Two methods are utilized to extract NNRP data f…

Microphysics parameterization sensitivity of the WRF Model version 3.1.7 to extreme precipitation: evaluation of the 1997 New Year’s flood of California Open
Providing high accuracy in quantitative extreme precipitation forecasting (QEPF) is still a challenge. California is vulnerable to extreme precipitation, which occurs due to atmospheric rivers and might be more intense with climate change.…
