Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study investigates the statistical characteristics of recurving tropical cyclones (TCs) over the western North Pacific (WNP). We find that recurving TCs are, on average, 38% stronger than non‐recurving TCs, owing to longer ocean exposure, fewer landfalls, and passage through warmer, more favorable thermal environments.

Weather, EarlyView.Abstract While the North Atlantic’s five‐century hurricane history is among the most complete globally, the earliest centuries are poorly documented in the written record. This study reassesses a subset of sixteenth to seventeenth‐century tropical cyclones (TCs) through a systematic review of archival evidence, mainly from Spain’s colonial archive, the

Weather, EarlyView.This study documents the unseasonal and prolonged heavy rain events which occurred in southern China during April 2024. In this series of extreme rainfall events, Guangdong province recorded extreme rainfall exceeding 6‐sigma of climatology, with eleven cities reporting record‐breaking rainfall.

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the processes that drive soil formation is crucial for developing sustainable land‐use strategies, as changing land‐use practices and climate change exacerbate soil erosion. The formation of substantial arable soils on carbonate bedrock requires substantial dust accretion as the underlying bedrock lacks siliciclastic material. In

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract Spring heat extremes over northern India in March coincide with critical wheat growth and pose disproportionate risks to yield and food security. March surface temperatures are modulated by Western Disturbances (WDs), midlatitude cyclonic systems embedded in the subtropical jet that typically bring rain and cooling.

Global Hotspots of Stalling Extratropical Cyclones
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) are primary drivers of extreme weather in the mid‐to‐high latitudes. We introduce a new classification of particularly impactful events—“stalling” ETCs—defined by slow movement combined with intense precipitation. Using cyclone tracking data, we find that stalling ETCs cluster systematically along the east coasts ...

Extratropical Cyclone Precipitation Life Cycles: A Satellite‐Based Analysis
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Although extratropical cyclones are the most common midlatitude storms, the relationship between their precipitation life cycle and dynamical strength life cycle has not been thoroughly analyzed.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract What is the relative importance of variability in local evaporation versus moisture convergence from lower latitudes to changes in autumn/winter Arctic Ocean precipitation? Past research has offered sometimes contradictory answers. Here we offer some resolution to this question by addressing two research gaps.
