Evidence for suppressed mid-Holocene northeastern Australian monsoon variability from coral luminescence [PDF]
, 2014 Summer monsoon rainfall in northeastern (NE) Australia exhibits substantial interannual variability resulting in highly variable river flows. The occurrence and magnitude of these seasonal river flows are reliably recorded in modern inshore corals as ...

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Acephate is an organophosphate insecticide widely used. This pesticide can be metabolized into methamidophos, a molecule highly toxic. Both have demonstrated the ability to promote serious toxic effects on nontarget organisms and have been identified in surface waters around the world. Therefore, it is important to understand their behavior in

Inverse-square law between time and amplitude for crossing tipping thresholds [PDF]
, 2019 A classical scenario for tipping is that a dynamical system experiences a slow parameter drift across a fold tipping point, caused by a run-away positive feedback loop. We study what happens if one turns around after one has crossed the threshold.

The Indian monsoon variability and civilization changes in the Indian subcontinent
Science Advances, 2017 Speleothem records of Indian monsoon provide climatic context to societal changes in Indian subcontinent over the last 5700 years. The vast Indo-Gangetic Plain in South Asia has been home to some of the world’s oldest civilizations, whose fortunes ebbed ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...

The southward shift of hurricane genesis over the northern Atlantic Ocean
npj Climate and Atmospheric ScienceThe hurricane, with maximum wind speed over 64 kts, is among the most terrible calamities over the northern Atlantic (NATL). Previous studies identified a poleward migration of tropical cyclone (TC) genesis over the Pacific Ocean, but the shift over the ...

Reduced exposure to extreme precipitation from 0.5 °C less warming in global land monsoon regions
Nature Communications, 2018 The Paris Agreement set a goal to keep global warming well below 2 °C and pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5 °C. Understanding how 0.5 °C less warming reduces impacts and risks is key for climate policies.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Using complex network theory and event synchronisation, we find distinct spatiotemporal structures of extreme precipitation and sea surface temperature events across the Northern Hemisphere. Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...
