Characterising City Scale Heat Climatology for Australian Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Australian cities peaks at night, intensifying under dry conditions, clear skies, increased solar radiation, and low wind speeds. Long‐term observations show that nighttime temperatures in major cities have warmed faster than their rural surroundings and future climate projections fail to capture this disparity ...

Operational numerical weather prediction with ICON on GPUs (version 2024.10) [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
Numerical weather prediction and climate models require continuous adaptation to take advantage of advances in high-performance computing hardware. This paper presents the port of the ICON model to GPUs using OpenACC compiler directives for numerical ...

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

5th International Conference on Meteorology and Climatology of the Mediterranean

, 2015
This study regards an analysis of the possible changes in Agro-Pontino rainfall under different global warming scenarios for the 21st century. The Agro-Pontino plain (southern Lazio,Italy) is a reclamation region with the typical hydro-geological ...

Shared foraging behaviors between hyenas and hominins in the Middle Paleolithic Levant: New evidence from Geula Cave, Israel

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While competition with large carnivores is likely to have shaped Middle Paleolithic hominins' subsistence behavior, palimpsested human and carnivore accumulations render the signal challenging to isolate. This study presents a detailed zooarchaeological and taphonomic analysis of a non‐anthropogenic faunal assemblage from a MIS 5 (~130–80 ka ...

Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.

Post-Seismic Surface Deformation of The Tarakan Earthquake in 2015 Using The DInSAR Technique

Geoplanning: Journal of Geomatics and Planning
Deformation can help predict the presence and severity of an earthquake. SAR image data can be used to calculate post-seismic surface deformation using the InSAR and DInSAR methods. DInSAR (Differential Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) is a well-
