Covariance of the intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet in Sahelian wet and dry years

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet (AEJ) positions are strongly correlated, with a more pronounced linear relationship across wet years. Surface heat flux anomalies modify low‐level temperature and sensible heat flux gradients that shift the AEJ core south of the gradient maxima in both composites.

Does vertical wind shear increase tropical cyclone rain?

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A 26‐year modern precipitation dataset is used to systematically assess tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall responses to vertical wind shear (VWS). VWS enhances rainfall volume in TCs by up to 23%, despite reducing storm intensity, revealing a trade‐off where VWS mitigates wind damage but potentially amplifies flood risk.

Comparison and hydrological evaluation of different precipitation data for a large tropical region: the Blue Nile Basin in Ethiopia

Frontiers in Water
The Upper Blue Nile Basin (UBNB) is a critical water resource, facing challenges from population growth, climate variability, and transboundary water management.

Assessing the role of urban blue space in summer outdoor thermal regulation in northwestern Europe: A hectometric Weather Research and Forecasting modelling on idealized urban landscape

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Using hectometric Weather Research and Forecasting simulations, we examine how urban blue spaces mitigate extreme summer heat in northwestern European cities through neighbourhood‐scale cooling mechanisms. Results show horizontal advection dominates cooling by mixing cooler air from waterbodies with warmer urban air, providing ∼50W·m−2$$ \sim 50\kern0 ...

High-resolution tropical channel model simulations of tropical cyclone climatology and intraseasonal-to-interannual variability [PDF]

, 2019
We tailored a tropical channel configuration of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to study tropical cyclone (TC) activity and associated climate variabilities.

EDARA: An ERA5-based Dataset for Atmospheric River Analysis

Scientific Data
AbstractAtmospheric Rivers (ARs) are long and narrow bands of strong horizontal water vapour transport concentrated in the lower troposphere. ARs play an important role in producing some high-impact weather events such as extreme precipitation and flooding, damaging winds, and temperature anomalies.

Moisture and wind effects of Rossby waves on Western Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone breakdown events

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
(a) Organized convection: clouds are clustered at the southern edge of the domain, aligning with the warmest SST. Northeasterly winds prevail, facilitating convection confinement to the southern part of the domain. (b) ITCZ breakdown: the clouds are spread throughout the domain.

Impacts of household sources on air pollution at village and regional scales in India [PDF]

, 2019
Approximately 3 billion people worldwide cook with solid fuels, such as wood, charcoal, and agricultural residues. These fuels, also used for residential heating, are often combusted in inefficient devices, producing carbonaceous emissions.
