ABSTRACT Children are adept statistical learners, capable of parsing streams of structured input into meaningful units, but the cognitive processes they engage during learning may differ from those of adults. To date, however, it is unclear how learners of different ages predict upcoming experience when navigating environments with complex structure ...

Abstract The physical conditions governing earthquake initiation are largely unknown, particularly in the minutes to seconds preceding rupture. While there is geodetic and seismic evidence of precursory activity in the hours to weeks prior to large earthquakes, the observational evidence immediately preceding the earthquake rupture is limited and ...

Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are known to induce heavy rainfall and pose significant weather hazards in tropical and mid‐latitude regions. Understanding the environmental conditions of MCSs is essential for improving model simulations and operational precipitation forecasts.

Abstract The northern Atlantic south of Greenland and Iceland is the only part of the world which has cooled significantly since the 19th Century both in the atmosphere and ocean. The oceanic cooling is widely assumed to be a result of reduced ocean heat transport into this region.

Abstract Mesoscale eddies are crucial for global heat and tracer transport, yet the mechanisms underlying their meridional movement remain unclear. Here, we combine satellite observations, idealized numerical experiments, and theoretical modeling to investigate these mechanisms. We demonstrate that the meridional eddy movement is strongly linked to the

Abstract This study investigates whether hydraulic fracturing contributed to the 2021 Ms 6.0 Luxian earthquake in the Sichuan Basin. Time‐series InSAR analysis of multi‐temporal Sentinel‐1 data reveals coseismic deformation associated with the 2021 Luxian earthquake and localized uplift near hydraulic fracturing platforms.
