A major crustal feature in the southeastern United States inferred from the MAGSAT equivalent source anomaly field [PDF]

open access: yes
The MAGSAT equivalent-source anomaly field evaluated at 325 km altitude depicts a prominent anomaly centered over southeast Georgia, which is adjacent to the high-amplitude positive Kentucky anomaly.

Meteorological conditions leading to a catastrophic, rain‐induced landslide in Cameroon in October 2019

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
October 2019 was characterized by three main multiday wet spells in Bafoussam and Dschang. Our results indicated that wet spells were influenced by a vortex pair near the Gulf of Guinea, a strong Sahara Heat Low located anomalously far east and north, a northward shift of the intertropical discontinuity, an enhancement of the inland penetration of the ...

Multi-resolution analysis of gravity anomalies: A comparative study of modern and spherical approximation techniques

open access: yesNova Geodesia
Analysing gravity anomalies is a key method of understanding the Earth’s shape, structure, and subsurface composition. This is done by modeling the Geoid, an irregular surface, into a regular sphere or ellipsoid for easy computations.

Gravity anomaly map, Canada

open access: yes, 2017
The gravity anomaly map of Canada shows variations in the gravity field caused by lateral variations in the density of Earth's crust and upper mantle that reflect differences in composition and thickness. Systematic gravity mapping began in Canada in 1944 and is ongoing.

Characteristics of diabatically influenced cyclones with high wind damage potential in Europe

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Diabatic processes contribute, on average, 26% to the intensification of European winter storms, with diabatically driven cyclones exhibiting steeper deepening rates, stronger wind gusts, and increased precipitation. These storms are linked to enhanced warm conveyor belt (WCB) activity and develop in a warmer environment with elevated lower ...

Strategies for estimating the marine geoid from altimeter data [PDF]

open access: yes
In processing altimeter data from a spacecraft borne altimeter to estimate the fine structure of the marine geoid, a problem is encountered. In order to describe the geoid fine structure, a large number of parameters must be employed and it is not ...

Anomalies in quantum gravity

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 1987
Abstract We look for a relation between the Christodoulakis-Zanelli Schwinger term in the commutators of the constraints and the Weyl diffeomorphism cocycle. We discuss the problem of anomalies in pure Quantum Gravity. We underline the particular role of the Weyl degree of freedom in all approaches to Quantum Gravity.

Dynamics and model representation of two contrasting extreme precipitation events in the Sahel

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Hovmöller diagrams of the two investigated extreme precipitation events in Mali are shown for (i) IMERG observations, and ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic model (ICON) runs with parameterization of explicit convection (ii) enabled and (iii) disabled. This work highlights that the commonly perceived benefit of using explicit convection in a state‐of‐the‐art ...

The effect of remote zones on the accuracy of evaluating the Molodensky [PDF]

open access: yes
An analytical method is presented for determining the error in computing the gravity anomaly from the Molodensky integral if geoidal undulation data in remote zones are neglected.

Mesoscale and microphysical processes leading to extreme hourly rainfall prior to the merger of two mesoscale convective systems in Central China

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Short‐term extreme rainfall can be produced by the variation of low‐level warm moist airflow during mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) approaching another. The cold outflow of the rapidly moving MCS intensifies the warm moist airflow in front, enhancing the convergence and ascending motion in the quasi‐stationary MCS.
