ENSO or the Atlantic: Which Actually Governs the Hydrological Vulnerability of the Caatinga?

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study challenges the traditional ENSO‐centric paradigm of rainfall variability in the Caatinga by demonstrating that the Tropical Atlantic exerts a statistically dominant influence on regional hydrological vulnerability. Using a seasonal ARX/HAC model and CHIRPS data, we establish a new hierarchy of climatic drivers across six rainfall districts ...

On the Uncertainties of Flash Flood Guidance: Toward Probabilistic Forecasting of Flash Floods

Journal of Hydrometeorology, 2006
Abstract Quantifying uncertainty associated with flash flood warning or forecast systems is required to enable informed decision making by those responsible for operation and management of natural hazard protection systems. The current system used by the U.S.

Assessment of the Exposure of Australia to Tropical Cyclones Through a Climatological Model for Cyclone Weather Extent

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Shifting Patterns of Precipitation Extremes in the Southeast Atlantic Basin—Brazil: From Observed Trends to Future Projections

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Observed trends and EC‐Earth3 climate model projections demonstrate expressive changes in the Southeast Atlantic Hydrographic Basin, Brazil. Significant increases in rainfall intensity and dry spell duration in the present climate are followed by projected amplification of extreme precipitation under future warming, particularly under the SSP5‐8.5 ...

Aflatoxin contamination in dried fruits and nuts in Bangladesh: Occurrence, dietary exposure, and health risk assessment

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dried fruits and nuts are widely consumed for their desirable sensory qualities and high nutritional value, providing essential nutrients such as proteins, healthy fatty acids, potassium, dietary fiber, and bioactive compounds. However, they are highly susceptible to aflatoxin contamination, particularly in humid tropical regions ...
