Rainfall Estimation by the WSR-88D for Heavy Rainfall Events
Abstract Storms that produce extreme flooding present a special challenge for the WSR-88D rainfall algorithms. The authors assess the utility of weather radar in the investigation of extreme rain-producing storms through both climatological analyses of long-term radar datasets and case studies of storm events.

Spatial-temporal fractions verification for high-resolution ensemble forecasts [PDF]
Experiments with two ensemble systems of the resolutions of 10 km (MF10km) and 2 km (MF2km) were designed to examine the value of cloud-resolving ensemble forecast in predicting small spatiotemporal-scale precipitation.

Plants are promising materials for building sustainable and eco‐friendly robots due to their inherent multifunctionality, with actuation playing a crucial role. This article focuses on the physical movements of plants and, from the perspective of actuation characteristics, explores representative plant species and their behaviors, the current state of ...

Quasi-weekly oscillation of regional PM2.5 transport over China driven by the synoptic-scale disturbance of the East Asian winter monsoon circulation [PDF]
Regional PM2.5 transport is an important cause of atmospheric environment change. However, the variations in regional PM2.5 transport on a synoptic scale with meteorological drivers have been incomprehensively understood.

Climatic Factors Associated with Heavy Rainfall in Northern Vietnam in Boreal Spring
Heavy rainfall occurs frequently in Northern Vietnam and causes severe floods and landslides. Heavy rainfall not only appears in rainy seasons (May–October) but also regularly occurs in spring (February–April).

A thermodynamical model for rainfall-triggered volcanic dome collapse [PDF]
Dome-forming volcanic eruptions typically involve the slow extrusion of viscous lava onto a steep-sided volcano punctuated by collapse and the generation of hazardous pyroclastic flows.

Bio‐Based Wax Interfaces for Droplet Energy Harvesting at Fluoropolymer‐Like Output Levels
Replacing unsustainable fluorinated polymers in droplet‐based energy harvesters is usually limited by low power outputs, but carefully selected bio‐based polymers are capable of creating fluoropolymer‐like voltage outputs. Abstract Droplet impact and rebound on solid surfaces has emerged as a promising method for energy harvesting, typically ...

Temperature and Farm Labor in Nigeria
ABSTRACT We estimate the impact of temperature shocks on the composition of farm labor in rural Nigeria using a nationally representative household panel survey. Leveraging plausibly exogenous year‐to‐year variation in growing season temperatures, we find that warmer temperatures significantly alter farm labor composition, prompting a substantial shift
