Physical environments of the Caribbean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Caribbean Sea encompasses a vast range of physical environmental conditions that have a profound influence on the organisms that live there. Here we utilize a range of satellite and in situ products to undertake a region-wide categorization of the ...

(Plio-)Pleistocene alluvial-lacustrine basin infill evolution in a strike-slip active zone (Northern Andes, Western-Central Cordilleras, Colombia) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The (Plio)-Pleistocene Zarzal Formation was deposited in the Cauca Depression and Quindío-Risaralda Basin between the Western and Central Cordilleras (Northern Andes).

Ecological Niche Modeling of Hoplias malabaricus (Characiformes, Erythrinidae) Under Climate Change Scenarios

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study employs ecological niche models (ENMs) to project current and future habitat suitability for a genetically validated lineage of Hoplias malabaricus, a widely distributed Neotropical freshwater predator. ABSTRACT Freshwater fish are highly vulnerable to climate change because they are restricted to inland waters and cannot readily disperse ...

The GFDL‐CM4X Climate Model Hierarchy, Part I: Model Description and Thermal Properties

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract We present the GFDL‐CM4X (Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory Climate Model version 4X) coupled climate model hierarchy. The primary application for CM4X is to investigate ocean and sea ice physics as part of a realistic coupled Earth climate model.

Spatio‐Temporal Representation of Mesoscale Convective Systems in Convection‐Permitting Simulations Over Northwestern South America: Insights Into Rainfall Overestimation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.
Abstract We perform km‐scale convection‐permitting simulations (Δx = 4 km) to represent Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) in Northwestern South America using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. An algorithm to identify and track MCSs was used to characterize simulated MCS features and compare with satellite observations.

Deltas: New paradigms

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 600-636, November 2024.
This paper discusses some new paradigms concerning the origin and significance of deltas and their deposits. It proposes a broader definition of deltas that takes into account the importance of sediment‐laden fluvial discharges in controlling deltaic sedimentation.

The 13 years of TRMM Lightning Imaging Sensor: From Individual Flash Characteristics to Decadal Tendencies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
How often lightning strikes the Earth has been the object of interest and research for decades. Several authors estimated different global flash rates using ground-based instruments, but it has been the satellite era that enabled us to monitor lightning ...

Global column‐averaged methane mixing ratios from 2003 to 2009 as derived from SCIAMACHY: Trends and variability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
After a decade of stable or slightly decreasing global methane concentrations, ground-based in situ data show that CH_4 began increasing again in 2007 and that this increase continued through 2009.

Climatological Tracking and Lifecycle Characteristics of Mesoscale Convective Systems in Northwestern South America

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 19, 16 October 2024.
Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are crucial in shaping large‐scale tropical circulation and the hydrological cycle, particularly in Northwestern South America (NwSA), a region marked by complex terrain and significant MCS activity. Understanding MCSs in NwSA is vital due to their impact on precipitation patterns and potential for severe ...
