The Predictability of the Southern England 23 October 2022 Severe Downbursts
Atmospheric Science LettersAccurate prediction of damaging straight‐line wind events from convective storms relies heavily on storm morphology and nowcasting. Utilising the Microburst Wind Potential Index in ensemble forecasts we examine the predictability of its different ...

Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Movement Disorders, from Principles to a Systematic Review of Evidence. [PDF]
Mov DisordAbstract Background The vagus nerve (VN), the principal component of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), mediates bidirec communication between the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral organs. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), delivered through invasive (iVNS) or non‐invasive (transcutaneous cervical [tcVNS] and ...

Relativistic Microburst Scale Size Induced by a Single Point‐Source Chorus Element
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Relativistic microbursts are impulsive, sub‐second precipitation bursts of relativistic electrons. They are one of the main loss mechanisms of outer radiation belt electrons, and are driven by chorus waves.

The Repetition Period of MeV Electron Microbursts as Measured by SAMPEX/HILT
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Here we examine properties of MeV electron microbursts to better understand their generation mechanisms. Using 15 years of data from Solar, Anomalous, Magnetospheric Particles Explorer/Heavy Ion Large Telescope, >1 MeV microburst repetition periods (time

Proton aurora and relativistic electron microbursts scattered by electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022 Charged particle precipitation from Earth’s magnetosphere results in stunning displays of the aurora and energy transfer into the atmosphere. Some of this precipitation is caused by wave-particle interactions.
