More Intense, Organized Deep Convection With Shrinking Tropical Ascent Regions
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.

Radiation, Clouds, and Self‐Aggregation in RCEMIP Simulations
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]
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]
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.

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