The EGU Journal Weather and Climate Dynamics

We will showcase the EGU journal "Weather and Climate Dynamics" (WCD), which was funded in 2020 with a focus on dynamical processes in the atmosphere. WCD aims at establishing a seamless perspective on atmospheric flows, on scales from weather to climate (minutes to decades). The scope of the journal includes various topics linked to atmospheric and climate dynamics, such as weather system dynamics in tropical, midlatitude and polar regions, dynamics of extreme weather events, interactions of atmospheric flows with cloud physics, radiation and the water cycle, atmospheric variability and predictability on time scales from minutes to decades, as well as the role of atmospheric dynamics in paleoclimate and climate change projections. The journal welcomes theoretical studies, idealized or full-physics numerical studies, and diagnostic studies using (re)analysis or observational data. In the first five years since its foundation, WCD has been growing rapidly and has published various important papers on a range of topics.
