Joint Influence of Supportive and Unsupportive Environmental Conditions on Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification in Two HighResMIP Simulations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI) is driven by complex interactions of TCs with multiple environmental factors. Using observations and two HighResMIP models (CNRM‐CM6‐1‐HR and HadGEM3‐GC31‐HM) that better simulate TCRI, we examine how six environmental factors jointly influence TCRI.

Asymmetric Changes in the Cooling Capacity of China's Lakes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Lakes significantly influence local climate, yet a systematic assessment of their cooling effect across diverse regions remains limited. This study develops a multi‐metric (spatial extent, magnitude, and efficiency) framework to evaluate the spatiotemporal patterns of Lake Cooling Capacity (LCC) for 265 major Chinese lakes from 1980 to 2022 ...

Simulated Tropical Troposphere Response to the QBO: Effect of Vertical Resolution, Gravity Waves Parameterization, and Boundary Forcing

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract An intermediate complexity general circulation model is used to isolate the effect of vertical resolution and gravity wave parameterization on the simulated monthly quasi‐biennial oscillation (QBO)‐tropical precipitation linkage. For low vertical resolution, the model is able to simulate QBO in the lowermost stratosphere, and its impact on the

The Future of Forest Microclimate in Southeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Forest microclimates regulate biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and species' thermal tolerance, yet tropical forest disturbances (logging, fire and fragmentation) increasingly disrupt these conditions. Southeast Asia, home to 15% of the world's tropical forests, faces rapid deforestation and degradation, but large‐scale changes in maximum ...

Interconnection of Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions and Cloud Feedback Through Warm Rain Process

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Recent research has revealed a correlation within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) simulations: models exhibiting more pronounced warming due to positive cloud feedback simultaneously show enhanced cooling from aerosol‐cloud interactions (ACI).

Effects of Warming and Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on Tropical Cyclone Distribution and Frequency: Results From a High‐Resolution Global Circulation Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract As global circulation models (GCMs) have increased in spatial resolution, more realistic tropical cyclones (TCs) and TC distributions have been simulated. Whereas prior research on TC climatologies has relied on proxies like Potential Intensity and synthetic storm models, the cyclones simulated by newer TC‐resolving GCMs can now be analyzed ...

A Climatology of Mesoscale Convective System Hazards in the United States and Their Representation in a Convection‐Permitting Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are large, organized convective storms that frequently produce flash floods and other severe hazards such as damaging winds, hail, and tornadoes. Developing an observationally based MCS hazard climatology is important for establishing a baseline to evaluate the representation of these events in numerical ...

Bipolar Oceanic Processes Drive Indonesian Throughflow Decline Under Climate Warming

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Climate models consistently project a weakening Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) under future warming, but its driving mechanisms remain incompletely explained. Prior studies primarily attribute the ITF decline to changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and Indo‐Pacific winds, but these two processes account for only a ...

Severity of Compound Precipitation and Temperature Extreme Events Over Africa at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming Levels

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 3, 15 March 2026.
Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...
