Climatological characteristics of atmospheric rivers over Northern Eurasia during summer

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science
An atmospheric river (AR) is a synoptic precipitation system characterized by a sharp, narrow band structure that facilitates strong moisture transport. ARs are typically associated with the development of extratropical cyclones, fronts, and cloud bands,

Assessing the Role of Tropical Cyclones on Drought Characteristics in the Hurricane Region of the Americas Between 1983 and 2024

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Droughts and tropical cyclones (TCs) are among the deadliest and costliest natural hazards and are expected to intensify in the twenty‐first century due to anthropogenic climate change. The Hurricane Region of the Americas (HRA), an area frequently affected by TCs and droughts, is home to some of the most vulnerable countries to these hazards ...

Comparative Analysis of Hydrodynamic Characteristics off Shandong Under the Influence of Two Types of Storm Surges

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
As China’s largest peninsula, the Shandong Peninsula faces recurrent threats from both tropical and extratropical cyclone-induced storm surges. Understanding the distinct mechanisms governing these surge types is critical for developing targeted coastal ...

Upper atmosphere response to extratropical cyclones

open access: yesSolnechno-Zemnaya Fizika
We have examined the response of the lower and upper ionosphere to the passage of extratropical cyclones in 2014–2023, using measurements made at regional ultra-long-wave radio stations and satellites of the Swarm mission in the Far Eastern region of Russia.

Impact of the AMOC Weakening on Upper Troposphere/Lower Stratosphere Warming Over the Extratropical North Pacific

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a key regulator of the Earth's climate. Here using water hosing experiments with a coupled climate model, we show that a weakened AMOC leads to a significant boreal winter upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS) warming over the extratropical North Pacific (ENP).

When Thunderstorms Reach the Stratosphere: Why Storm Structure May Matter for Climate

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Deep convection that overshoots the tropopause provides one of the fastest pathways for exchanging air between the troposphere and the stratosphere. Using extensive in situ observations from the dynamics and chemistry of the summer stratosphere (DCOTSS) campaign, Shepherd et al.

Types of extratropical cyclones

open access: yes, 2018
The present thesis updates the Norwegian and the Shapiro-Keyser model concepts of extratropical cyclogenesis with latest findings in literature, focusing on the last 15 - 20 years. The main properties of the two concepts are then compared to a case study cyclone of each cyclone type.

Increasing risks of the explosive extratropical cyclones over the North Atlantic storm track: a perspective from their surface wind maxima

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Extratropical cyclones play a crucial role in balancing the global momentum, energy, and moisture, and also, they shape the extreme weather events over the extra-tropics.

Large-scale circulation drives atmospheric river landfall in the western United States

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Atmospheric rivers cause extreme precipitation and sustain water resources in the western United States. Their occurrence has often been attributed to extratropical cyclones.
