Clear sky atmosphere at cm-wavelengths from climatology data [PDF]

open access: yesMNRAS 455 (2016) 2901-2917, 2015
We utilise ground-based, balloon-borne and satellite climatology data to reconstruct site and season-dependent vertical profiles of precipitable water vapour (PWV). We use these profiles to solve radiative transfer through the atmosphere, and derive atmospheric brightness temperature ($T_{\rm atm}$) and optical depth ($\tau$) at centimetre wavelengths.

Characterization of LBT atmospheric and turbulence conditions in the context of ALTA project [PDF]

open access: yesProc. SPIE Volume 12185, SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2022, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, 2022
ALTA project has been active since 2016, providing, at LBT observatory site, forecasts of atmospheric parameters, such as temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity and precipitable water vapor, and optical turbulence parameters, such as seeing, wavefront coherence time and isoplanatic angle with the final goal to support nightly the ...

Impact of local rivers on coastal acidification

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 67, Issue 12, Page 2779-2795, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Coastal ecosystems are highly dynamic areas for carbon cycling and are likely to be negatively impacted by increasing ocean acidification. This research focused on dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and total alkalinity (TA) in the Mississippi Sound to understand the influence of local rivers on coastal acidification.

Automated Detection Algorithm for SACZ, Oceanic SACZ, and Their Climatological Features

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
The South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ) is responsible for a large amount of the total summer precipitation over Brazil and is related to severe droughts and extreme floods over the southeast of Brazil.

Climatological study of airflow channelling in relation to surface geostrophic wind

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, 2022
The aim of this study was to climatologically investigate forced and pressure‐driven channelling flow in the Kitakami Basin, Japan, through the use of observational surface wind and sea‐level pressure data collected over 23 years, which corresponded to ...

Hotter, Longer and More Frequent Heatwaves: An Observational Study for the Brazilian City of Campinas, SP

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Meteorologia, 2021
Worldwide there is accumulated evidence of heatwave intensification due to climate change. Regional differences in the effects of heatwaves require local studies to implement public mitigation and adaptation strategies.

Assessing Upper Tropospheric Jet Streak Proximity Using the Rossby Radius of Deformation

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2016
The Rossby radius of deformation is a parameter that describes the relative role of buoyant and inertial forces for atmospheric phenomena in a flow regime.

Representing Twentieth-Century Space–Time Climate Variability. Part I: Development of a 1961–90 Mean Monthly Terrestrial Climatology

open access: yes, 1999
The construction of a 0.5° lat × 0.5° long surface climatology of global land areas, excluding Antarctica, is described. The climatology represents the period 1961–90 and comprises a suite of nine variables: precipitation, wet-day frequency, mean ...

Can a present-day thermal niche be preserved in a warming climate by a shift in phenology? A case study with sea turtles

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
How species respond to climate change may impact their extinction probability. Here we link climatology and ecology to tackle a globally important conservation question.
