Mesoscale Soil Moisture Heterogeneity Can Locally Amplify Humid Heat
Abstract Soil moisture is a key ingredient of humid heat through supplying moisture and modifying boundary layer properties. Soil moisture heterogeneity due to for example, antecedent rainfall, can strongly influence weather patterns; yet, its effect on humid heat is poorly understood.

Abstract Mixed‐phase clouds can be found at temperatures between 0 and −38° ${}^{\circ}$C and consist of supercooled cloud droplets and ice crystals. The phase of mixed‐phase clouds is crucial for the radiation budget, which determines the atmosphere's energy balance.

Abstract Arctic low clouds influence Arctic system evolution through their effects on the atmosphere and surface. Unfortunately, atmospheric models and retrospective analysis (reanalysis) struggle to simulate Arctic low cloud occurrence and properties.

Abstract This study investigates the vertical development of shallow cumulus (ShCu) clouds in the Central Amazon (CAMZ) by combining large‐eddy simulations (LES) with observational data from the GoAmazon2014/5 campaign. Analyses of turbulent kinetic energy budgets, updraft mass flux, moisture flux, and surface fluxes across cloud sizes indicate that ...

Abstract Near‐0°C (−2°C to +2°C) air temperatures are critical for determining the phase of precipitation, the onset of freeze–thaw cycles, and associated impacts on the environment and infrastructure. Change is expected in a warming climate, yet large‐scale high‐resolution understanding of near‐0°C transitions remains limited, particularly under ...

Abstract Socioeconomic drought, which occurs when water demand exceeds available supply and often leads to water withdrawal restrictions, affects water resource management. However, the relationship between large‐scale moisture circulation and the occurrence of socioeconomic drought has not been well understood. In this study, we focused on the Yoshino

The Microphysics of Deportation
In the paper, I argue there is a whole political logistics to deportation. This is made visible by bringing the concept of microphysics to bear on the topic. Taking the case of enforced and escorted removals from the UK, I show that this logistics is vividly and graphically documented in the inspection reports.

Abstract The headwater regions of the Tarim River Basin (TRB), Asia's vital “water towers,” are critical for the ecological stability of arid Northwest China, yet a systematic understanding of their diverse precipitation microphysics remains elusive.
