Modulation of North Atlantic atmospheric rivers by the Gulf Stream

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Gulf Stream ocean variability plays a key role in modulating atmospheric river (AR) activity over the North Atlantic during winter and spring at monthly time‐scales. Increased ocean heat transport and mesoscale activity in the Gulf Stream are linked to northward shifts in ARs, while stronger surface heat fluxes drive ARs southward.

Multi-Resolution Mapping of Aboveground Biomass and Change in Puerto Rico’s Forests with Remote Sensing and Machine Learning

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Tropical forests are major contributors to the global carbon budget but are affected by disturbances such as hurricanes, which cause extensive yet spatially variable tree damage and mortality.

Increase in annual frequency of the severe cyclonic storms of the Bay after 1964- Possible causes

open access: yesMausam, 1981
The series of annual frequency of severe cyclonic storms which struck the coast around the Bay of Bengal during the period 1877-1977 has been examined to find out if any significant change has occurred in the mean frequency, It is observed that while the

Present and future downslope windstorms in the Scandinavian Mountains from a kilometre‐scale climate model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Kilometre‐scale climate simulations for Scandinavia indicate the importance of high resolution for reproducing downslope windstorms (DWs). Scandinavian DWs on average induce a limited local warming but with large variability due to the region's complex orography.

Coastal Storm Activity along the Eastern North Island of New Zealand - East Cape to Wellington

open access: yes, 2010
Coastal storm activity for the eastern North Island, between East Cape and Wellington, has been quantified from a meteorological perspective through the use of cyclone tracks and extreme winds and from an oceanographic perspective by using hindcast wave ...

An Assessment of Tropical Cyclone Frequency in the Bay of Bengal and Its Impact on Coastal Bangladesh

open access: yesCoasts
This study examines the frequency of tropical cyclones in the Bay of Bengal and their impact on Bangladesh. The extent of environmental harm led to the selection of two specific areas: the Panpatty Union and Galachipa Upzilla in the Patuakhali district ...

Near‐resonant excitation of the Adriatic barotropic modes: The seiche events of December 2019

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study examines severe flooding in the northern Adriatic Sea in December 2019, which existing forecasting systems failed to predict. Analysis of wind and sea‐level data, alongside reanalysis datasets and a high‐resolution hydrodynamic model, revealed a wind‐induced resonance mechanism.

Suitable probability model for severe cyclonic storms striking the coast around the Bay of Bengal.

open access: yes, 1980
All the 141 severe cyclonic storms which struck the Arakan Coast of Burma and the coasts of Bangla Desh, E. India and Sri Lanka during the period 1877-1977 have been considered in this study.

How consistently do ensemble prediction systems represent the growth of atmospheric uncertainty?

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Spread‐based diagnostics calculated for 12 ensemble prediction systems are compared to understand the consistency with which they represent atmospheric uncertainty growth. Good correlation between all these systems is found in the extratropics for a lead time range from 48 hr to between 96 hr and 192 hr.

A new method to identify and explain sources of precipitation modification, illustrated for the western Netherlands

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study develops a method to identify the source areas of precipitation events, as illustrated for the western part of the Netherlands. Radar‐based precipitation data are traced back to their source areas and machine‐learning techniques are used to identify hypothesized causes: urban heat, surface roughness, and air pollution. We find that urban and
