The Extratropical Transitions of Hurricanes Felix and Iris in 1995
Abstract The extratropical transitions of Hurricanes Felix and Iris in 1995 are examined and compared. Both systems affected northwest Europe but only Iris developed significantly as an extratropical system. In both cases the hurricane interacts with a preexisting extratropical system over the western Atlantic.

Strange Storms: Rainfall Extremes From the Remnants of Hurricane Ida (2021) in the Northeastern US
On 1 September 2021, the remnants of Hurricane Ida transformed into a lethal variant of tropical cyclone in which unprecedented short‐duration rainfall from clusters of supercells produced catastrophic flooding in watersheds of the Northeastern US. Short‐

Southwest Asia remains understudied in high‐resolution regional climate modelling despite its climatic sensitivity and complex orography. We compare WRF (10 km), CESM (~2°), and ERA5 (0.25°) for 1950–2002, with supplementary validation against CHIRPS and PERSIANN‐CDR. WRF corrects the unrealistic summer precipitation overestimation of CESM and improves

Australia has different levels of exposure to tropical cyclones. Using historical records, this study investigates the spatial variability of tropical cyclone formation across the Southeast Indian–South Pacific basin, quantifies the exposure of different parts of Australia to tropical cyclone weather events, and examines decadal variability in cyclone ...

Comparison of extratropical cyclone characteristics from atmospheric global climate model simulations at different resolutions [PDF]
Extratropical cyclones play a key role in weather and climate at mid and high latitudes. They are simulated with Atmospheric Global Climate Models (AGCMs) for weather forecasting and future climate projections.

Quantification of the Downstream Impact of Extratropical Transition for Typhoon Jangmi and Other Case Studies [PDF]
The impact of extratropical transition on the midlatitude flow is quantified based on potential vorticity inversion. The detailed study of Typhoon Jangmi (2008) reveals the diabatically enhanced net transport of low-PV air to the tropopause as the key ...

ABSTRACT Volcanic ash (tephra) provides an important chronostratigraphic framework for correlating Quaternary records. In ultra‐distal ( > $\gt $1500 km) settings such as ice cores and marine sediments, deposits are typically preserved as cryptotephra composed of glass shards ≤ 20 μ $\le 20\,\mu

ABSTRACT Regional variability and long‐term changes of past ecosystems likely had a strong impact on hunter–gatherer population dynamics, including the expansion of anatomically modern humans and the disappearance of Neanderthals. However, our understanding of these ecosystems remains limited, even when looking at large‐scale patterns, such as the ...

Filamentary structure in chemical tracer distributions near the subtropical jet following a wave breaking event [PDF]
This paper presents a set of observations and analyses of trace gas cross sections in the extratropical upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS). The spatially highly resolved (≈0.5 km vertically and 12.5 km horizontally) cross sections of ...
