Scientific Reports, Published online: 25 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41598-026-59611-7 Comparative analysis of empirical evapotranspiration models across Northern Ethiopia’s Climatic Zones
In this longer format video podcast episode produced by KOMO, Emeritus State Climatologist Nick Bond discusses the appropriate applications of seasonal outlooks and why seasonal outlooks can be so difficult to forecast.  
The Geomorphho90m dataset » Click here for the visualization « Topographical relief comprises the vertical and horizontal variations of the Earth’s terrain and drives processes in geomorphology, biogeography, climatology, hydrology and ecology. Its characterisation and assessment, through geomorphometry and feature extraction, is fundamental to numerous environmental modelling and simulation anal…
Nick Bond is a University of Washington associate professor of atmospheric sciences who studies the link between ocean and atmosphere. He also serves as the state climatologist for Washington.
Early reports suggest that the winter of 2018/2019 will be a weak to moderate El Niño year. For the Pacific Northwest, that probably means less snow in the mountains than the average. 
Our old Sun has broken a milestone that has not happened for almost a hundred years, as an entire month has passed without a single sun spot being noted. This is relevant because many climatologists believe there is a tight connection between solar magnetic activity which is responsable for the sun spots and climate on earth.
Acording to the UCLA observatory from Mount Wilson, more than thirty da…
Geoscience Careers Related to the Atmosphere The atmosphere, Earth’s envelope of gases, has many distinct layers defined by the makeup, temperature range, and function. The lower layers of the atmosphere are studied extensively by atmospheric scientists, meteorologists, and climatologists. These professionals investigate the lowest atmospheric layer, the troposphere (where weather occurs), …
