Absence of West Nile and Usutu Virus Persistence in Overwintering Mosquitoes in Northeastern France: Insights from Cold-Season Surveillance [PDF]
VirusesEmerging arboviruses of the Orthoflavivirus genus such as West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV), primarily transmitted by Culex mosquitoes, pose significant public health threats due to their ability to cause severe neurological diseases in humans

A climatology of trade-wind cumulus cold pools and their link to mesoscale cloud organization [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 We present a climatology of trade cumulus cold pools and their associated changes in surface weather, vertical velocity and cloudiness based on more than 10 years of in situ and remote sensing data from the Barbados Cloud Observatory.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Cold pools formed by precipitating convective clouds are an important source of mesoscale temperature variability. However, their sub-mesoscale (100 m to 10 km) structure has not been studied, which impedes validation of numerical models and understanding of their atmospheric and societal impacts.

Aircraft observations of cold pools under marine stratocumulus [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2013 Although typically associated with precipitating cumuli, cold pools also form under shallower stratocumulus. This study presents cold-pool observations as sampled by the NSF/NCAR C-130, which made cloud and boundary-layer measurements over the ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2016 AbstractThe mechanisms by which sensible heat fluxes (SHFs) alter cold pool characteristics and dissipation rates are investigated in this study using idealized two‐dimensional numerical simulations and an environment representative of daytime, dry, continental conditions.

Sensitivity of Summertime Convection to Aerosol Loading and Properties in the United Arab Emirates
Atmosphere, 2021 The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is used to investigate convection–aerosol interactions in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for a summertime convective event. Both an idealized and climatological aerosol distributions are considered.

Competing Effect of Radiative and Moisture Feedback in Convective Aggregation States in Two CRMs
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023 The radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE) of two models exhibiting convective aggregation has been compared. The goal of the work, following the suggestion from the RCE Model Intercomparison Project (RCEMIP), is to identify key parameters controlling ...

Cold Pool Responses to Changes in Soil Moisture
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020 This study examines the role of soil moisture in modulating convective cold pool properties in an idealized modeling framework that uses a cloud‐resolving model coupled to an interactive land surface model.
