More Intense, Organized Deep Convection With Shrinking Tropical Ascent Regions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Changes in the frequency and morphology of convection in a warming climate have major implications for the hydrologic cycle and continue to be a large source of variability in climate models.

Experimental investigation on synthesis, characterization, stability, thermo-physical properties and rheological behavior of MWCNTs-kapok seed oil based nanofluid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Several researchers devoted their efforts for the thermal conductivity enhancement of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) based nanofluids as CNTs have excellent thermal properties.

Radiation, Clouds, and Self‐Aggregation in RCEMIP Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
The responses of tropical anvil cloud and low‐level cloud to a warming climate are among the largest sources of uncertainty in our estimates of climate sensitivity.

The transition zone as a host for recycled volatiles: Evidence from nitrogen and carbon isotopes in ultra-deep diamonds from Monastery and Jagersfontein (South Africa) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sublithospheric (ultra-deep) diamonds provide a unique window into the deepest parts of Earth's mantle, which otherwise remain inaccessible. Here, we report the first combined C- and N-isotopic data for diamonds from the Monastery and Jagersfontein ...

Advances in understanding large-scale responses of the water cycle to climate change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Globally, thermodynamics explains an increase in atmospheric water vapor with warming of around 7%/°C near to the surface. In contrast, global precipitation and evaporation are constrained by the Earth's energy balance to increase at ∼2–3%/°C.

Modulation of the Bifurcation in Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium by Gray‐Zone Cloud and Turbulence Parameterizations

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
This study investigates the mechanisms by which small‐scale turbulence and cloud physics determine the organization of large‐scale convection in radiative‐convective equilibrium (RCE), an idealization of the tropical atmosphere.

The challenge of predicting flash floods from thunderstorm rainfall. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A major characteristic of the hydrometeorology of semi-arid regions is the occurrence of intense thunderstorms that develop very rapidly and cause severe flooding.

Temporal and spatial scaling impacts on extreme precipitation [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Convective and stratiform precipitation events have fundamentally different physical causes. Using a radar composite over Germany, this study separates these precipitation types and compares extremes at different spatial and temporal scales, ranging from

Microenvironmental influence on microtumour infiltration patterns: 3D-mathematical modelling supported by: In vitro studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mathematical modelling approaches have become increasingly abundant in cancer research. Tumour infiltration extent and its spatial organization depend both on the tumour type and stage and on the bio-physicochemical characteristics of the ...

RCEMIP-II: mock-Walker simulations as phase II of the radiative–convective equilibrium model intercomparison project [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
The radiative–convective equilibrium (RCE) model intercomparison project (RCEMIP) leveraged the simplicity of RCE to focus attention on moist convective processes and their interactions with radiation and circulation across a wide range of model types ...
