Cosmological analogies for geophysical flows, Lagrangians, and new analogue gravity systems [PDF]
Formal analogies between the ordinary differential equations describing geophysical flows and Friedmann cosmology are developed. As a result, one obtains Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of these equations, while laboratory experiments aimed at testing geophysical flows are shown to constitute analogue gravity systems for cosmology.

What Do P-Wave Velocities Tell Us About the Critical Zone?
Fractures in Earth's critical zone influence groundwater flow and storage and promote chemical weathering. Fractured materials are difficult to characterize on large spatial scales because they contain fractures that span a range of sizes, have complex ...

The physics of the Earth and the planets itself limits the knowledge that can be obtained of it. Two principle limitations are set in inverse problems and by chaotic dynamics; examples of each are given in this essay and some implications are discussed.

Moisture sources tracking of a cold vortex rainstorm over Northeast China using FLEXPART
A typical Northeast Cold Vortex (NECV) rainstorm on July 25, 2016 occurred under a favorable atmospheric circulation background. Target particles that make significant contributions to this NECV rainstorm mainly came from the Indo‐China Peninsula, South China Sea, Bay of Bengal, and central China on relatively low levels. The largest water vapor uptake

The remediation of a polluted site relies, as a first stage, on the proper delineation of the contamination sources. In classical investigations, soil and water samples are collected throughout the field.

How Asian slum emissions impact local microclimates in polluted air masses
Cook stove emissions over urban sprawl in South India and expected microphysical implications. Combustion‐mediated soot and black carbon from biomass burning in shantytowns modulate the local cloud cover. Abstract Urban sprawl comprising densely populated slums over South Asian cities yields copious amounts of soot and black carbon from archaic cooking

Recent decrease in inner‐core rain rate of tropical cyclones over the western North Pacific
The decreasing trend in inner‐core rain rate of tropical cyclones over the western North Pacific. Abstract The tendency in tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall is of great concern due to its remarkable contribution to global precipitation and extreme rainfall events.

Predictability of European winter 2020/2021: Influence of a mid‐winter sudden stratospheric warming
Boreal winter 2020/2021 was characterised by a negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) pressure pattern, yet the signals from the ensemble mean of many seasonal forecast systems were for a positive NAO. In this letter we focus on the GloSea5 seasonal forecast system and investigate if there is any evidence for forecast error, or whether the ...
