NowPrecip 2: Precipitation nowcasting in the complex terrain of Switzerland. Part II: Verification

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In this work we present the verification of the NowPrecip precipitation nowcasting systems (version 1 and version 2). Using 3.5 years of data over the period 2020–2023, their performance is compared with PySTEPS and the ICON numerical weather prediction ensemble by computing deterministic and probabilistic metrics.

Lagrangian analysis of two flavours of Central European heatwaves: Formation under omega blocking versus initiation by subtropical ridges

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Central European heatwaves (HWs) forming under omega blocking differ from those enabled by subtropical ridges, in terms of both air‐mass origin and processes warming air parcels along their way. Using ERA5‐based backward trajectories and a Lagrangian temperature anomaly decomposition, we identify significant differences in the ...

Venus Interior Structure Mission (VISM): Establishing a Seismic Network on Venus [PDF]

open access: yes
Magellan radar data show the surface of Venus to contain a wide range of geologic features (large volcanoes, extensive rift valleys, etc.). Although networks of interconnecting zones of deformation are identified, a system of spreading ridges and ...

Impact of data assimilation on Arctic sea‐ice thickness variability and its coupling with atmospheric forcing

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We document for the first time how the assimilation of CS2SMOS observations improves the model representation of Arctic sea‐ice thickness (SIT) and its variability: biases are reduced (top row), while excessive variability in the Beaufort Sea and lack of variability in the ice pack are both corrected (bottom row).

Anti‐Globalization Dynamics and Africa's Structural Transformation: Identifying Avoidable Environmental Degradation Thresholds

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study pursues a dual objective. First, it investigates the unconditional impact of anti‐globalization on structural transformation in Africa. Second, it explores how environmental degradation interacts with anti‐globalization to influence structural transformation. The analysis focuses on 52 African countries over the period 2005–2023. To

Dynamics of the atmospheres of the outer planets [PDF]

open access: yes
Current knowledge about dynamics and the thermal structure of the outer planets is reviewed with the aim of identifying important measurements which should be made in the post-Voyager era.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Low frequency modulation of jets in quasigeostrophic turbulence

open access: yes, 2016
Quasigeostrophic turbulence on a beta-plane with a finite deformation radius is studied nu- merically, with particular emphasis on frequency and combined wavenumber-frequency do- main analyses.

Radiation‐Based 3D Dual‐Mode Thermal Management Devices: Advances in Active/Passive Switching for Energy‐Saving Applications

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Heating and cooling energy demand account for nearly half of the global energy consumption. SH and RC offer sustainable, zero‐energy strategies, but single‐mode devices lack adaptability. 3D dual‐mode devices, exploiting axial, flipping, and bending deformations, provide reversible switching with dynamic or passive control, representing a promising ...
