Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC)‐induced extreme precipitation (TCEP) poses heavy risks, yet its seasonal predictability remains limited by insufficient understanding of cross‐scale climatic drivers. Here, we elucidate a stratosphere‐to‐stratosphere coupling pathway where the quasi‐biennial oscillation (QBO) modulates TC activity and subsequent TCEP over

We developed an invasion risk index framework that integrates socioeconomic and environmental data using an entropy‐weighting method. The case study highlights the need for region‐specific biosecurity measures for Chilo suppressalis. Abstract BACKGROUND Biological invasion risk is a multifaceted concept that, according to the Food and Agriculture ...
