Simulating Shallow Mesoscale Overturning Circulations in the Trades With Kilometer‐Scale Earth System Models

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Shallow mesoscale overturning circulations (SMOCs) are ubiquitous in the trades, primarily triggered by mesoscale convective heating and influencing the organization of shallow cumuli. Accurate representation of SMOCs and their co‐variability with moisture is crucial for capturing mesoscale cloud organization in models and improving climate ...

Suitability of Ground‐Motion Models for Seismic Hazard Assessments in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We perform linear mixed‐effects analyses with a ground‐motion dataset to evaluate how well ground‐motion models (GMMs) fit active crustal, subduction interface, and subduction intraslab earthquakes in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Most of the GMMs reproduce the spatial variation in peak ground motions with earthquake magnitude and rupture ...
