Extratropical cyclones and the projected decline of winter Mediterranean precipitation in the CMIP5 models [PDF]
, 2014 The Mediterranean region has been identified as a climate change "hot-spot" due to a projected reduction in precipitation and fresh water availability which has potentially large socio-economic impacts.

Cloud-radiative impact on the dynamics and predictability of an idealized extratropical cyclone [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2023 Extratropical cyclones drive midlatitude weather, including extreme events, and determine midlatitude climate. Their dynamics and predictability are strongly shaped by cloud diabatic processes. While the cloud impact due to latent heating is much studied,

Overview and first results of the Wind and Storms Experiment (WASTEX): a field campaign to observe the formation of gusts using a Doppler lidar [PDF]
Advances in Science and Research, 2018 Wind gusts are responsible for most damages in winter storms over central Europe, but capturing their small scale and short duration is a challenge for both models and observations.

Different propagation mechanisms of deep and shallow wintertime extratropical cyclones over the North Pacific [PDF]
, 2023 Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) are three-dimensional synoptic systems in mid- and high latitudes. Previous studies on ETC propagation have typically focused on cyclones identified at a single level.

Uncertainties in cloud-radiative heating within an idealized extratropical cyclone [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsCloud-radiative heating (CRH) within the atmosphere affects the dynamics and predictability of extratropical cyclones. However, CRH is uncertain in numerical weather prediction and climate models, and this could affect model predictions of extratropical ...
