Satellite radiance observation error inflation and spatial thinning: Reconciling idealized theory with near‐operational applications

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Satellite radiance observations are spatially thinned using a grid‐based selection that retains one representative profile per cell. When observation errors are spatially correlated but treated as uncorrelated in the assimilation system, reducing thinning increases their influence, leading to overfitting and reduced analysis fit with other observations.

Data‐driven emulation of flow‐dependent background‐error variance in variational data assimilation

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A machine‐learning approach is developed to emulate flow‐dependent background‐error variance within a variational data assimilation framework. The method reproduces uncertainty information that would normally require a 50‐member ensemble using only five members, while maintaining comparable observation fit and forecast performance.

Simulations of the Extratropical Transition of Tropical Cyclones: Phasing between the Upper-Level Trough and Tropical Cyclones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The article of record as published may be found at http://dx.doi.org/10.1175/MWR3303.1Whether the tropical cyclone remnants will become a significant extratropical cyclone during the reintensification stage of extratropical transition is a complex ...

Extratropical transitions in the North Atlantic with special reference to Hurricane Igor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There is a tendency to equate the word "hurricane" with the tropical regions of the world. Few recognize the danger and risks that occur when a tropical cyclone reaches colder subtropical waters and undergoes extratropical transition.

Quantifying transport into the lowermost stratosphere using simultaneous in-situ measurements of SF₆ and CO₂ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The seasonality of transport and mixing of air into the lowermost stratosphere (LMS) is studied using distributions of mean age of air and a mass balance approach, based on in-situ observations of SF6 and CO2 during the SPURT (Spurenstofftransport in der

Characteristics of quasi‐stationary band‐shaped precipitation systems in Japan between 1989 and 2022

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
(a) Annual occurrence frequency of QBPSs (green bars), five‐years moving average (blue line), and regression trend (red line) for 1989–2022. (b) Distribution of the geographical occurrence frequencies of QBPSs with a 5‐km resolution for 1989–2022. Quasi‐stationary band‐shaped precipitation systems (QBPSs) are a major cause of localized heavy rainfall ...

A response in the ENSO cycle to an extratropical forcing mechanism during the El Niño to La Niña transition

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2013
Current El Niño-Southern oscillation (ENSO) theory emphasizes that the forcing that drives the cycle mainly exists within tropical regions. However, these ideas are quite limited in explaining completely the occurrence of ENSO.

Vortex Spinup Process in the Extratropical Transition of Hurricane Sandy (2012) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2019
Abstract This study utilizes the quasi-Lagrangian azimuthal momentum equation (i.e., budget calculation) and 1.667-km-resolution numerical simulation data to study the intensity and structural changes in Hurricane Sandy’s extratropical transition.

Extreme rainfall in southern China in April 2024 and its potential link to weather events across south Asia

open access: yesWeather, 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.
