Field Surveys of Tsunamis Linked to Two 2021 Indonesia Earthquakes: A Report [PDF]
Science of Tsunami HazardsWhile catastrophic tsunamis often dominate global attention, moderate seismic events can pose an overlooked threat to coastal communities. In 2021, two earthquakes in East Indonesia, the Mw 5.9 Ceram and Mw 7.3 Flores Sea events, triggered tsunamis with ...

Investigation and quality assessment of the Past Weather Code from the Integrated Surface Database [PDF]
, 2014 Quantitative SYNOP Code weather variables such as rainfall amount, although of high societal and environmental importance, are frequently subject to recording errors and inhomogeneities resulting in uncertain conclusions.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Climate models generally reproduce the WAWJ and August peak but simulate its onset prematurely and too strongly relative to ERA5. CMIP6 simulations struggle to reproduce the jet–precipitation relationship in the Sahel and underrepresent associated moisture transports.

Alaskan Ridge Blocking and Associated Winter Cold Conditions Over North America
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Multi‐decadal (1979–2023) analysis reveals that wintertime reductions in the meridional gradient of potential vorticity (PVy) over the Bering Sea are recurrent but episodic features of North Pacific circulation. These suppressed PVy states consistently co‐occur with amplified Alaskan ridging, weakened mid‐tropospheric westerlies and a downstream warm ...

Are West African Heat‐Lows Analogous to Dry Tropical Cyclones?
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Heat‐lows qualitatively resemble dry tropical cyclones (TCs), though their underlying physics has yet to be compared. In this study, we show that West African transient heat‐low climatology correlates well with TC potential intensity generalised over land.

Participatory agro-climate information services: A key component in climate resilient agriculture [PDF]
, 2019 The brief promotes participatory agro-climate information services as a key component in achieving climate-smart agriculture. The brief emphasizes that actionable agro-climate information starts with—and responds to—gender-based needs of farmers ...

Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Spatial Asymmetries in the Lesser Antilles
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Rainfall is not proportional to the Saffir‐Simpson wind‐based categories. Lower category tropical cyclones (TS, H1, H2 and H3) can generate more intense rainfall than H4 and H5. Rainfall is asymmetric; as a tropical cyclone intensifies or weakens, the location of peak rainfall shifts.
