Use when targeting Journal of Climate or deciding whether a climate-dynamics or climate-variability manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the large-scale-climate-science bar, model-evaluation and statistical-rigor expectations, AMS house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Journal of Climate (journal-of-climate)

## Journal positioning

Journal of Climate is the American Meteorological Society's journal for research on the
large-scale climate of the atmosphere, ocean, land, and cryosphere. Its defining
expectation is a **contribution to climate science**: an advance in understanding
climate dynamics, variability, change, predictability, or diagnostics at regional-to-global
scale, supported by rigorous analysis. A local weather case study, a short-range forecast
verification, or an impacts paper that applies climate data without contributing to climate
understanding is a poor fit, however careful. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection /
re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current author guidance. Before
submitting, re-check the live Journal of Climate / AMS author instructions.
