Can Large‐Scale Clustering of Tropical Precipitation Be Used to Constrain Climate Sensitivity?

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The spatial organization of deep convection in tropical regions is posited to play an important role in determining characteristics of the tropical climate such as the humidity distribution and cloudiness and may therefore be an important control on climate feedbacks. This study analyzes one aspect of convective organization, the clustering of

Transport to the Extratropical Stratosphere by Overshooting Storms in Idealized Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Deep convection is a significant source of water to the extratropical stratosphere which can alter radiative properties and contribute to ozone loss. Previous studies find it responsible for 40% of mid‐latitude water vapor above 380K. However, the amount of hydration from individual storms and the mechanisms that initiate mixing is less ...

Impact of Non‐Classical Gravity‐Wave Dynamics on Middle‐Atmosphere Mean Flow and Solar Tides

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Conventional gravity‐wave (GW) parameterizations neglect three aspects of GW dynamics. Instead of momentum and entropy fluxes they use Eliassen‐Palm fluxes, thereby neglecting the possibility that resolved flow are not in geostrophic and hydrostatic balance.

Significant Radiative Absorption of Brown Carbon Aerosols From Residential Fuel Combustion in Developing Regions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Widespread household use of solid fuels releases massive amounts of carbonaceous aerosols in developing countries. Assessment of their roles in meteorology and climate change is considered low confidence by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

Future Changes in the Atmospheric Water Cycle Over the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) atmospheric water cycle (TPAWC), involving moisture sources, transport, and sinks with the TP precipitation and evaporation, faces unclear changes under global warming. This study projects TPAWC changes under two Shared Socio‐economic Pathways scenarios (SSP245 and SSP585) using Lagrangian moisture tracking.
