Atmospheric and Climate Sciences (ACS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal published quarterly. The journal is dedicated to publishing original research articles across all the fields of applied atmospheric and/or climate science. The journal welcomes contributions in, but not limited to, the following areas:
Nicodeme Djiedeu, Esther C. Modi-Mbog, Laurent Nana, 1 1
In this work, we present a general theoretical study leading to analytical expression of the seasonal temperature at the near surface that is expected to evaluate any area seasonal temperature of the world using the least square method to fit the hourly data…
Winston Zhou, Xiaodi Wang
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a significant climate phenomenon with far-reaching impacts on global weather patterns, ecosystems, and economies. This study aims to enhance ENSO forecasting with the Extended Reconstruction Sea Surface Temperature v…
Victoria Pegkou Christofi, Xiaodi Wang
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reports a 95% decline in the oldest Arctic ice over the last 33 years [1], while the National Aeronautics and Space Administration states that summer Arctic Sea Ice Extent (SIE) is shrinking by 12.2% per dec…
Ernst Hammel, Martin Steiner, Christoph Marvan, Matthias Marvan, Klaus Retzlaff, Werner Bergholz, Axel Jacquine
We measured the IR back radiation using a relatively low-cost experimental setup and a test chamber with increasing CO 2 concentrations starting with a pure N 2 atmosphere against a temperature-controlled black reference background. The results confirm estima…

The UN International Panel Environment Programme (“UNEP”), 2023 Emissions Gap Report urgently presses the global community to adopt a two-pronged approach to reduce atmospheric concentration of CO 2 —expedite efforts to reduce annual CO 2 emissions; and incre…
Dongli Zhang, Wullianallur Raghupathi, Viju Raghupathi
This study explores the complex relationship between climate change and human development. The aim is to understand how climate change affects human development across countries, regions, and the global population. Visual analytics were used to examine the im…

Atmospheric phenomena are physical phenomena resulting from the correlation of atmospheric parameters of natural origin. They are associated with climatic storms and include lightning, thunder, global warming, wind, evaporation, rain, clouds, and snow. The fo…

Possible changes in the structure and seasonal variability of the subtropical ridge may lead to changes in the rainfall’s variability modes over Caribbean region. This generates additional difficulties around water resource planning, therefore, obtaining seas…

Changes in CO 2 and temperature are correlated, but it is difficult to observe which is the cause and which is the effect. The release of CO 2 dissolved in the ocean into the atmosphere depends on the atmospheric temperature. However, examining the relationsh…

Atmospheric and Climate Sciences (ACS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal published quarterly. The journal is dedicated to publishing original research articles across all the fields of applied atmospheric and/or climate science. The journal welcomes contributions in, but not limited to, the following areas: All articles are open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence, with authors retaining copyright.
Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
Use the journal's numbered (Vancouver) reference style. Cite sources consecutively in the order they appear, and ensure every reference is complete and retrievable.
Declare all funding sources, conflicts of interest, and ethical approvals (including informed consent and animal-care statements where applicable).
