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.

Monitoring Landscape Changes in Japan Using Classification of Modis Data Combined with a Landscape Transformation Sere (LTS) Model

Journal of Landscape Ecology, 2015
Japan, with over 75% forest cover, is one of the most heavily forested countries in the world. Various types of climax forest are distributed according to latitude and altitude.

GCK-MODY (MODY 2) Caused by a Novel p.Phe330Ser Mutation

ISRN Pediatrics, 2011
Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a monogenic form of diabetes inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. The second most common cause is GCK-MODY due to heterozygous mutations in theGCKgene which impair the glucokinase function through different mechanisms such as enzymatic activity, protein stability, and increased interaction with its ...

A Comparison of OCO-2 SIF, MODIS GPP, and GOSIF Data from Gross Primary Production (GPP) Estimation and Seasonal Cycles in North America

Remote Sensing, 2020
Remotely sensed products are of great significance to estimating global gross primary production (GPP), which helps to provide insight into climate change and the carbon cycle. Nowadays, there are three types of emerging remotely sensed products that can

A New Hybrid Approach Applying Feature Engineering to Model High Resolution Air Temperature Across Israel

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A hybrid modelling framework that applies feature engineering using the KNN model to estimate high‐resolution air temperature across Israel by integrating meteorological and environmental predictors. ABSTRACT The increasing global planetary temperature, combined with rapid urbanisation, underscores the urgent need to evaluate human exposure to air ...

Trophic state assessment of global inland waters using a MODIS-derived Forel-Ule index

Remote Sensing of Environment, 2018
Eutrophication of inland waters is considered a serious global environmental problem. Satellite remote sensing (RS) has been established as an important source of information to determine the trophic state of inland waters through the retrieval of ...

Decadal Changes of UV Aerosol Optical Depth in Hobart, Australia Measured With a Brewer MKIII: Relationship to Bushfire Events and Climate Indices

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Monthly average aerosol optical depth at 320 nm obtained with a Brewer MKIII spectrophotometer for Hobart, Australia (42.8806° S, 147.3250° E) over a 21‐year period. There is a linear trend of 15.4% per decade. There are 9 months when the average aerosol optical depth exceeds twice the monthly standard deviation.

Critical Analysis of Satellite Data of NSIDC, NOAA NESDIS in Determining the Spatial Distribution of Ice on Lakes

Ekológia (Bratislava), 2018
The process of formation and rotting of ice on lakes is an integral part of the hydrological cycle of many lakes. The conditions of the ice regime significantly influence the ecological system of lakes.
