Spatiotemporal Evolution of Regional Heavy Rainfall Events in Guangdong, South China: Intensification and Expansion Since the Early 1990s

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Regional heavy rainfall events (RHREs) in Guangdong, South China, during 1961–2025 are reassessed using an improved strength index that integrates rainfall intensity, spatial extent and duration. Results reveal a post‐1991 shift towards more frequent and spatially extensive strong and extreme events, with June showing the most pronounced ...

Congo Air Boundary Breakdown Timing and Its Connection to Southern African Rainfall Onset in Reanalyses and Historical CMIP6 Models

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Congo Air Boundary (CAB) occurs where two air masses with different humidities meet over Africa. The CAB is investigated in three reanalyses, datasets combining observations with forecasts. Between 1980 and 2010, the reanalyses show that when the CAB reduces in daily frequency between August and December, rainfall over central southern Africa ...

Added Value of CESM‐Driven WRF for Mean and Extreme Precipitation Over Complex Terrain in Southwest Asia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Southwest Asia remains understudied in high‐resolution regional climate modelling despite its climatic sensitivity and complex orography. We compare WRF (10 km), CESM (~2°), and ERA5 (0.25°) for 1950–2002, with supplementary validation against CHIRPS and PERSIANN‐CDR. WRF corrects the unrealistic summer precipitation overestimation of CESM and improves

Cenozoic history of the Australian Monsoon

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science
The Australian monsoon is part of the global monsoon and often included as a component of the Asian Monsoon system although they operate out of phase. Due to their hemispheric positions, the dry (wet) Australian winter (summer) monsoon coincides with the

Assessment of the Exposure of Australia to Tropical Cyclones Through a Climatological Model for Cyclone Weather Extent

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Australia has different levels of exposure to tropical cyclones. Using historical records, this study investigates the spatial variability of tropical cyclone formation across the Southeast Indian–South Pacific basin, quantifies the exposure of different parts of Australia to tropical cyclone weather events, and examines decadal variability in cyclone ...

Groundwater Recharge of Fractured Rock Aquifers in SE Australia Is Episodic and Controlled by Season and Rainfall Amount

Geophysical Research Letters
Sustainable management of groundwater resources requires a comprehensive understanding of groundwater recharge; including when and under what conditions groundwater recharge occurs.

Characteristics of Boundary Layer Height Variations in Global Arid Regions and Their Sensitivity to Influencing Energy Factors

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Global warming has intensified drought impacts across most arid regions, altering surface energy partitioning and atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) development. Using 1979–2018 ERA‐Interim reanalysis data, we show that the long‐term mean boundary layer height (BLH) over global arid regions is approximately 841.8 m, nearly 200 m higher than over humid ...

One Hundred Years of the German Soil Science Society (DBG) 1926–2026: Origins, Facts, and Background of an Eventful History

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On its 100th anniversary in 2026, the German Soil Science Society (DBG) is looking back not only on an eventful history with traditions and impressive achievements but also with painful interruptions and ruptures. One curious fact is that the DBG was initially founded as the national section of the International Soil Science Society (ISSS ...

Effects of Crop Rotation and Hydrogel Application on Soil Biological Properties and Wheat Biomass Production in Drylands

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and aim Conservation agriculture (CA) is rapidly gaining traction to promote sustainable crop production, focusing on minimum soil disturbance, permanent soil cover, and strategic crop rotation. Moreover, hydrogel is increasingly being used to improve water retention, including in combination with CA, particularly in water limited ...
