Observational characteristics of summer non-precipitating clouds in Jiulong on the east side of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

暴雨灾害
Jiulong is located on the east side of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) and is a region prone to southwest vortex. Cloud detection with new-type detection equipment in this region helps enhance the knowledge of cloud characteristics in the southwest ...

Climate change and high exposure increased costs and disruption to lives and livelihoods from flooding associated with exceptionally heavy rainfall in Central Europe [PDF]

The intensity and duration of the heavy rainfall put immense pressure on civil protection. Emergency management systems across Europe had been reinforced after severe flooding over the last decades and largely worked well: despite the higher intensity ...

Covert Optical Fingerprints Within Overt Structural Colors via Cascaded Cavity Resonances

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cascaded photonic–plasmonic cavities combine vivid structural colors with hidden stochastic optical fingerprints in a single monolithic platform. Layered cavities control the overt appearance, while disordered nanogap resonances generate covert scattering with limited mutual influence.

Experimental Demonstration of Temporally Aware Fault‐Tolerant Sensor Fusion Using Memristive Associative Learning

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
In dynamic driving scenarios, the proposed approach ensures only temporally aligned sensor inputs to make driving decisions, preventing false activations. By enabling selective hardware‐level learning, it achieves fast, reliable responses under noisy conditions.

Quasi-weekly oscillation of regional PM_2.5 transport over China driven by the synoptic-scale disturbance of the East Asian winter monsoon circulation [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
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.

Extreme Weather Events and Consumer Food Responses

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates consumer food responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which affected a swath of the Southeastern U.S. in 2024. Using representative consumer survey data from six affected states, we analyze 10 distinct food responses classified into ex ante and ex post responses, and examine their associations with food insufficiency

Short-term risk forecasts of heavy rainfall

Water Science and Technology, 2002
Methodologies for risk forecasts of severe weather hardly exist on the scale of nowcasting (0–3 hours). Here we discuss short-term risk forecasts of heavy precipitation associated with local thunderstorms. We use COTREC/RainCast: a procedure to extrapolate radar images into the near future. An error density function is defined using the estimated error
