Gravitational atmospheric tides as a probe of Titan's interior: Application to Dragonfly [PDF]

A&A 658, A108 (2022), 2021
Context: Saturn's massive gravity is expected to causes a tide in Titan's atmosphere, producing a surface pressure variation through the orbit of Titan and tidal winds in the troposphere. The future Dragonfly mission could analyse this exotic meteorological phenomenon.

Regional‐Scale Landscape Response to an Extreme Precipitation Event From Repeat Lidar and Object‐Based Image Analysis

Earth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Extreme precipitation events may cause flooding, slope failure, erosion, deposition, and damage to infrastructure over a regional scale, but the impacts of these events are often difficult to fully characterize. Regional‐scale landscape change occurred during an extreme rain event in June 2012 in northeastern Minnesota.

The Paris Agreement and Climate Justice: Inequitable Impacts of Sea Level Rise Associated With Temperature Targets

Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are causing unprecedented changes to the climate. In 2015, at the United Nations (UN) Conference of the Parties in Paris, France, countries agreed to limit the global mean temperature (GMT) increase to 2°C above preindustrial levels, and to pursue efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C.

Repeating Low Frequency Icequakes in the Mont‐Blanc Massif Triggered by Snowfalls

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 127, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Deformation mechanisms of glaciers are highly sensitive to basal temperature; the motion of temperate glaciers is dominated by basal slip while cold‐based glaciers deform mainly by internal creep. While basal slip is usually aseismic, unstable slip sometimes occurs and can be detected by seismometers.

Geodetic Constraints on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau Present-Day Geophysical Processes

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2011
The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau is the largest and the highest area in the world with distinct and competing surface and subsurface processes. The entire Plateau has been undergoing crustal deformation and accompanying isostatic uplift as a result of the ...

Forecasting large-scale circulation regimes using deformable convolutional neural networks and global spatiotemporal climate data [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Classifying the state of the atmosphere into a finite number of large-scale circulation regimes is a popular way of investigating teleconnections, the predictability of severe weather events, and climate change. Here, we investigate a supervised machine learning approach based on deformable convolutional neural networks (deCNNs) and transfer learning ...

Statistical Physics in Meteorology [PDF]

Physica A 336 (2004) 93-101, 2004
Various aspects of modern statistical physics and meteorology can be tied together. The historical importance of the University of Wroclaw in the field of meteorology is first pointed out. Next, some basic difference about time and space scales between meteorology and climatology is outlined.

Vertical ambush corridors: Intriguing multi‐mechanism ecological structures embedded in the kinetic fluid architectures of ocean living resource production systems

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 3-20, January 2023., 2023
Abstract The concept of a ‘vertical ambush corridor’ is herein introduced to marine ecosystem science. In the open ocean, adequate physical cover from which to launch an unanticipated ambush attack is generally lacking. An available alternative is for a predator to channel its attack vertically upward from below, rendering an unlighted approaching ...

Radiation‐constrained boundaries cause nonuniform responses of the carbon uptake phenology to climatic warming in the Northern Hemisphere

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 719-730, February 2023., 2023
The constraint of temperature and radiation on vegetation productivity was estimated with the variable θ. Values of θ differ during the start and end of season (SoS and EoS), indicating that radiation constraints the trend towards longer growing seasons but differently during spring and autumn.

A landslide susceptibility assessment method using SBAS-InSAR to optimize Bayesian network

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Landslide susceptibility assessment is crucial to mitigate the severe impacts of landslides. Although Bayesian network (BN) has been widely used in landslide susceptibility assessment, no study has compared the accuracy of different BN structure ...
