Does vertical wind shear increase tropical cyclone rain?

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A 26‐year modern precipitation dataset is used to systematically assess tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall responses to vertical wind shear (VWS). VWS enhances rainfall volume in TCs by up to 23%, despite reducing storm intensity, revealing a trade‐off where VWS mitigates wind damage but potentially amplifies flood risk.

Landslide Hazard and Rainfall Threshold Assessment: Incorporating Shallow and Deep-Seated Failure Mechanisms with Physics-Based Models

Geosciences
Landslides pose a significant threat worldwide, leading to numerous fatalities and severe economic losses. The city of Manizales, located in the Colombian Andes, is particularly vulnerable due to its steep topography and permeable volcanic ash-derived ...

Improving forest age estimation to understand subtropical forest regrowth dynamics using deep learning image segmentation of time‐series historical aerial photographs

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Accurately estimating forest age is key to understanding how forests recover and evaluating restoration success. We developed a two‐step deep learning approach using historical greyscale aerial photographs to map forest age at fine spatial scales. By combining a pre‐trained model with localized fine‐tuning, our U‐Net + ResNet50 architecture achieved ...

Construction of a Joint Newmark–Runout Model for Seismic Landslide Risk Identification: A Case Study in the Eastern Tibetan Plateau

Land
The key to seismic landslide risk identification resides in the accurate evaluation of seismic landslide hazards. The traditional evaluation models for seismic landslide hazard seldom consider the landslide dynamic runout process, leading to an ...

Education in a Changing Climate: A Systematic Review for Low and Middle‐Income Countries (LMICs)

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is a major global challenge that affects many aspects of human life and hinders progress on the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). One area that has not received enough attention is its impact on children's education in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), which are especially vulnerable to ...
