Attribution of Extreme Precipitation with Updated Observations and CMIP6 Simulations
Journal of Climate, 2020 While the IPCC Fifth Assessment Working Group I report assessed observed changes in extreme precipitation on the basis of both absolute and percentile-based extreme indices, human influence on extreme precipitation has rarely been evaluated on the basis ...

Multifunctional Microstructured Surfaces by Microcontact Printing of Reactive Microgels
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Reactive poly(N‐vinylcaprolactam‐co‐glycidyl methacrylate) microgels are used as functional inks to create surface‐grafted arrays on glass via microcontact printing. The patterns (10–50 µm widths and spacings) enable stable binding and post‐functionalization with dyes and peptides.

METEOROLOGICAL FEATURES OF EXTREME PRECIPITATION IN THE NORTHERN ADRIATIC [PDF]
, 2006 An investigation of extreme precipitation cases in the northern Adriatic area is discussed in this paper. The criterion chosen for an extreme event recognition is a measured daily precipitation amount exceeding 100 mm day-1.

Slow and fast response of mean and extreme precipitation to different forcing in CMIP5 simulations [PDF]
, 2017 We are investigating the fast and slow responses of changes in mean and extreme precipitation to different climate forcing mechanisms, such as greenhouse gas and solar forcing, to understand whether rapid adjustments are important for extreme ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Molecular engineering of a nonconjugated radical polymer enables a significant enhancement of the glass transition temperature. The amorphous nature and tunability of the polymer, arising from its nonconjugated backbone, facilitates the fabrication of organic memristive devices with an exceptionally high yield (>95%), as well as substantial ...

Monitoring changes in precipitation and radiative energy using satellite data and climate models [PDF]
, 2009 Current changes in the tropical hydrological cycle, including water vapour and precipitation, are presented over the period 1979-2008 based on a diverse suite of observational datasets and atmosphere-only climate models.

Extreme precipitation in the tropics is closely associated with long-lived convective systems
Communications Earth & Environment, 2020 Water and energy cycles are linked to global warming through the water vapor feedback and heavy precipitation events are expected to intensify as the climate warms. For the mid-latitudes, extreme precipitation theory has been successful in explaining the

Grain Boundary Space Charge Engineering of Solid Oxide Electrolytes: Model Thin Film Study
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates unprecedented control of grain boundary electrical properties in solid electrolytes. Selective diffusion of cations through grain boundaries in thin films enables 12 orders of magnitude variation in ionic resistance, proving that systematic chemical modification of grain boundary electrical properties is feasible.

Changes in Extreme Precipitation and Landslides Over High Mountain Asia
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 High Mountain Asia is impacted by extreme monsoonal rainfall that triggers landslides in large proportions relative to global distributions, resulting in substantial human impacts and damage to infrastructure each year.
