Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Spatial Asymmetries in the Lesser Antilles
Rainfall is not proportional to the Saffir‐Simpson wind‐based categories. Lower category tropical cyclones (TS, H1, H2 and H3) can generate more intense rainfall than H4 and H5. Rainfall is asymmetric; as a tropical cyclone intensifies or weakens, the location of peak rainfall shifts.

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil
The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

A Climatology of Coupled Tracks of Extratropical Cyclones and Mesoscale Convective Systems
Abstract Weather in the midlatitudes is dominated by extratropical cyclones (ETCs) with horizontal length scales of roughly 1,000 km and mesoscale convective systems (MCSs), with horizontal length scales of roughly 100 km. This study investigates the multi‐scale interactions of these storms by comparing databases of Lagrangian tracks for both storm ...

Abstract Overshooting convection significantly impacts the composition of the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS), yet its linkage to Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) remains poorly understood. This study investigates how ARs modulate environmental conditions and moisture distribution associated with overshooting convection in the central and ...

Abstract The floods of 01 September 2009 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, were among the most severe in the Central Sahel's history, highlighting the region's persistent flood risk. This extreme precipitation event (EPE) was influenced by various atmospheric drivers, including Convectively Coupled Equatorial Waves (CCEWs).

Abstract Applying the four‐dimensional variational (4DVar) method in nonlinear systems faces conflicts between a lack of long‐term dynamical information using a short assimilation window and a trap of local minima using a long window. Here, an adjusted analysis approach that incorporates a thought of pseudo‐orbit analysis adjusting into 4DVar was ...

Abstract The West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) contains an ice volumetric equivalent of 5.3 m of global mean sea‐level rise. Understanding the climate mechanisms that influence WAIS surface mass balance (SMB) can help reduce uncertainties in sea‐level rise projections. Previous work has focused on trends related to temperature and the roles of well‐known

Abstract Heat waves do not always coincide with ozone pollution, yet the mechanisms controlling their divergence remain insufficiently understood. Here, we investigate why some heat waves evolved into heatwave‐ozone pollution compound events (HWOP), whereas others remained isolated heat wave events (IHW), over the Yangtze River Delta during summer 2024.

Abstract The headwater regions of the Tarim River Basin (TRB), Asia's vital “water towers,” are critical for the ecological stability of arid Northwest China, yet a systematic understanding of their diverse precipitation microphysics remains elusive.
