Neighborhood‐Based Verification of Precipitation Forecasts at the Local Scale: An Application Over Southern Quebec

Meteorological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Grid‐scale evaluation of NWP precipitation using a neighborhood‐based approach. Local contingency tables are aggregated over a set of forecasts to assess performance at each grid cell. The method is illustrated over southern Quebec, comparing six NWP systems (GDPS, RDPS, HRDPS, GFS, NAM, RAP) using four metrics: Bias, POD, FAR, and ETS.

Revisiting $\nu_\mu(\bar\nu_\mu)$ and $\nu_e(\bar\nu_e) $ Induced Quasielastic Scattering from Nuclei in Sub-GeV Energy Region

, 2016
We present the results of charged current quasielastic(CCQE) scattering cross sections from free as well as bound nucleons like in $^{12}C$, $^{16}O$, $^{40}Ar$ and $^{208}Pb$ nuclear targets in $E_\nu(_{\bar\nu})~\le~ $1 GeV energy region. The results

Physics or Knob‐Tuning? Tropical Anvil Peak Is Captured by GCMs

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract Tropical anvil clouds peak near 200 hPa and significantly impact Earth's climate, yet its physical realism in coarse‐resolution General Circulation Models (GCMs) remains debated. We examine anvil cloud formation by performing simulations with a GCM with a hierarchy of cloud fraction schemes ranging from a complex prognostic Tiedtke scheme to a

ColdBlobMIP: A Multi‐Model Assessment of the Atmospheric Response to the North Atlantic Warming Hole

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract Observations of sea surface temperature reveal a region of relative cooling in the subpolar North Atlantic commonly known as the North Atlantic warming hole (NAWH) or “cold blob.” While the origin of the NAWH has been extensively debated, its direct impact on the atmosphere has only recently garnered attention. Here, we present ColdBlobMIP, an

Cost‐Effective Convective‐Scale Static Background‐Error Covariances: Methodology and Experiment in RRFS Hybrid EnVar System for Direct Radar Reflectivity Data Assimilation Over the CONUS

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract This study proposes a cost‐effective convective‐scale static background‐error covariance matrix (CSS B) approach and evaluates the approach for direct radar reflectivity data assimilation (DA) using the Finite‐Volume Cubed‐Sphere limited‐area model (FV3‐LAM)‐based DA system.

Chicamocha canyon wind energy potential and VAWT airfoil selection through CFD modeling

Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2020
The use of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) in Colombia could tackle the energy distribution difficulties as large parts of the territory are not connected to the electrical grid.

Unified Forecast System Prediction of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation and Its Influence on East Pacific During Boreal Summer

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 18, 28 September 2025.
Abstract This study evaluates the subseasonal‐to‐seasonal (S2S) prediction skill of the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) and its impacts on the east Pacific (EP) tropical cyclogenesis in the Unified Forecast System (UFS) during boreal summer (May–October).

Amphibian (Xenopus laevis) Interleukin-8 (CXCL8): A Perspective on the Evolutionary Divergence of Granulocyte Chemotaxis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The glutamic acid-leucine-arginine (ELR) motif is a hallmark feature shared by mammalian inflammatory CXC chemokines such the granulocyte chemo-attractant CXCL8 (interleukin-8, IL-8). By contrast, most teleost fish inflammatory chemokines lack this motif.

Screening of a long-term sample set reveals two Ranavirus lineages in British herpetofauna.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Reports of severe disease outbreaks in amphibian communities in mainland Europe due to strains of the common midwife toad virus (CMTV)-like clade of Ranavirus are increasing and have created concern due to their considerable population impacts.
