From Empire to Aid: Analysing Persistence of Colonial Legacies in Foreign Aid to Africa
Journal of International Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT For decades now, Western development agencies and donors have been castigated for their colonial biases in providing aid to Africa. It is well established that donors provide considerably more foreign aid to their former colonies relative to other countries.

Varieties of Democracy Aid Approaches: The Role of Donors' Domestic Ideology
Journal of International Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT After the end of the Cold War, DAC donors increased their efforts of democracy promotion in developing countries. Among other instruments, DAC donors increasingly use democracy aid to improve democracy abroad. However, DAC donors differ in their allocation and delivery strategy of democracy aid.

Performance Evaluation of the MPAS Model in Simulating Southeast Asian Rainfall Characteristics
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study evaluates the performance of the Model for Prediction Across Scales–Atmosphere (MPAS) in reproducing key rainfall characteristics over Southeast Asia (SEA) during 2000–2020, using the MSWEP dataset as reference. MPAS realistically captures the observed meridional rainfall gradient, with higher rainfall in the south and lower in the north, as

On the Temporal Variability of Precipitation in Iraq: Arid‐Wet Years and Extreme Events
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Daily and monthly precipitation data in Iraq display high seasonal to interdecadal variability, with arid and wet years that have very distinct seasonal cycles. Monthly rainfall is significantly correlated with the Indian Ocean Dipole. Extreme events are identified and classified as belonging to four different weather patterns, allowing to obtain daily

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.The NSW and Australian Regional Climate Modelling Version 2.0 (NARCliM2.0) builds on NARCliM1.0 and 1.5 to deliver improved regional climate simulations. This study provides the first comprehensive evaluation of NARCliM2.0 against its predecessors, assessing individual model skill in reproducing mean and extreme climate.

Growing Degree‐Day Trends Associated With ‘False Springs’ in the Continental United States
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Earlier spring warming has increased growing degree‐day (GDD) accumulation prior to the last freeze at some US locations (red circles = stat. sig. increases). However, after accounting for spatial autocorrelation using a false discovery rate approach, few trends remain significant, indicating no coherent continental‐scale increase in false spring risk.
