Monthly Weather Review

Aims & Scope

Monthly Weather Review (MWR) (ISSN: 0027-0644; eISSN: 1520-0493) publishes research relevant to the analysis and prediction of observed atmospheric circulations and physics, including technique development, data assimilation, model validation, and relevant case studies.

This research includes numerical and data assimilation techniques that apply to the atmosphere and/or ocean environments.

MWR also addresses phenomena having seasonal and subseasonal time scales.
