Impact differences of topography and soil parameters on Cloud-to-Ground Lightning in the Panxi Plateau and the Chengdu Plain [PDF]

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang
The Panxi Plateau serves as a critical transitional zone from the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the Sichuan Basin, forms a "plateau-plain" step-transition belt with the Chengdu Plain.Due to its dramatic topographic relief and complex ...

How Thunderstorms Are Changing in Mexico: Trends and Characteristics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Thunderstorm days in Mexico have increased significantly since 1992, with pronounced regional and seasonal contrasts. Increasing moisture emerges as the most spatially coherent environmental signal. At the same time, enhanced instability characterizes northeastern and central Mexico, revealing distinct regional controls on thunderstorm activity and ...

Side‐DBR Guided Exciton‐Polariton Lasing With Near‐Field Mode Imaging in an InGaN Thin‐Film Ridge Waveguide

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Room‐temperature lower‐polariton‐like lasing is realized in an InGaN/GaN thin‐film ridge cavity with lateral distributed Bragg reflectors. Near‐field optical microscopy distinguishes the transverse side‐DBR‐confined mode from a longitudinal photon‐like mode, while simulations reproduce their spatial profiles.

Electrospun fibrous sorbents for the removal of uranium and americium from aqueous media

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers with tertiary amino functionalities are evaluated as adsorbents for U‐232 and Am‐241 in both simplified and complex (seawater) water matrices, highlighting their ability for efficient actinide removal. Abstract Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers containing tertiary amino functionalities were ...

Climatology of transient luminous events and lightning observed above Europe and the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In 1999, the first sprites were observed above European thunderstorms using sensitive cameras. Since then, Eurosprite campaigns have been conducted to observe sprites and other transient luminous events (TLEs), expanding into a network covering large ...
