Elliptical Orbit Representation for the Annual Evolution of the Northern Hemisphere Stratospheric Polar Vortex. Part I: Diagnosing Interannual Variability

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Using a single annual frequency with each year defined from July 1 to June 30 of the following calendar year, this study fits an ellipse to the yearly phase space trajectory of the daily time series of MU (stratospheric mass‐weighted zonally integrated zonal wind at 60°N) and M (total polar stratospheric air mass over 60–90°N) to represent the

Characterization and Localization of Chemical Explosions and Lightning Flashes by a Flotilla of Stratospheric Balloons

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract On 3 August 2021, a flotilla of four Heliotrope solar hot air balloons was launched from central New Mexico (USA). The balloons, equipped with microbarometers, flew from sunrise to sunset at altitudes between 17 and 22 km. During the flight, eight chemical explosions ranging from 45 to 136 kg TNT equivalent and a thunderstorm occurred in the ...

Volcanic Ash Affected by Lightning During the Hunga 2022 Eruption

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The 15 January 2022 eruption of Hunga volcano (Kingdom of Tonga) produced the most lightning ever documented during an explosive eruption to date. This study estimates the mass of erupted tephra that may be structurally or electromagnetically affected by the lightning, based upon lightning peak current, channel length, and ash plume particle ...

Twenty‐One Years of Global Atmospheric Chlorine Inventories From Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE‐FTS) Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract We present atmospheric chlorine inventories over 21 years (2004–2024) and five latitude bands (82–60°N, 60–30°N, 30°N–30°S, 30–60°S, 60–82°S) across altitudes from the surface up to 61 km. These inventories were calculated using the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment‐Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE‐FTS) version 5.3 retrievals of the volume ...

Correcting Breaks in Temperature and Humidity Observations: Implications for Climate Variability Analysis in Austria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 3, 15 March 2026.
A 2‐h shift in the timing of evening observations in 1971 resulted in a discontinuity in the estimation of daily means of air temperature and humidity across all climate stations in Austria. This study employs hourly observations to, for the first time, comprehensively quantify and correct this break.

Utilising Benford's Law in the Validation of Precipitation Datasets

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 3, 15 March 2026.
This study demonstrates Benford's Law as a robust diagnostic tool for precipitation data integrity. Global monthly precipitation consistently conforms to the law, regardless of origin, while regional data requires appropriate temporal granularity for adherence.
