ESTIMATION OF THE ASYMMETRIC VERTICAL VARIATION OF THE SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN HEMISPHERES OF THE EARTH

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
In previous studies, the northern hemisphere of the Earth is considered to be in compression while the southern one is in expansion. In this study, based on three different methods, we calculate average vertical variations of the two hemispheres from ...

Comparative cranial biomechanics reveal macroevolutionary trends in theropod dinosaurs, with emphasis on Tyrannosauroidea

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

The stratospheric Brewer–Dobson circulation under different phases of the Stratospheric Polar Vortex Oscillation combined with different phases of the Quasi-Biennial Oscillation

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics
Using long-term Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model version 5 (WACCM5) simulations initialized with the climatology around the year 2000, we studied the anomalous distribution of planetary wave and gravity wave fluxes during distinct phases of the ...

The spatial distribution of hydrogen ions at topside ionosphere in local daytime

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
Using DEMETER and DMSP satellite data, the spatial distribution of hydrogen ion (H+) in local daytime has been compared and analyzed. At 840 km of DMSP height, the seasonal variations of H+ density is basically symmetric, with similar density values near

Extending the SBUV polar mesospheric cloud data record with the OMPS NP [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
We have utilized Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet (SBUV) instrument measurements of atmospheric radiance to create a 40-year record of polar mesospheric cloud (PMC) behavior.

Fresh air in the 21st century? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Ozone is an air quality problem today for much of the world's population. Regions can exceed the ozone air quality standards (AQS) through a combination of local emissions, meteorology favoring pollution episodes, and the clean-air baseline levels of ...

Northern Hemisphere tropical cyclone activity [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2009
Recent historical Northern Hemisphere (NH) tropical cyclone (TC) inactivity is compared with strikingly large observed variability during the past three decades. Yearly totals of the combined active‐basin NH accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) are highly correlated with boreal spring sea‐surface temperature (SST) in the North Pacific Ocean and are ...

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Comparing forward and inverse models to estimate the seasonal variation of hemisphere-integrated fluxes of carbonyl sulfide [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2002
A simple inverse model is proposed to deduce hemisphere-integrated COS flux based on published time series of total column COS. The global atmosphere is divided into two boxes representing the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, and the total column ...

A lake ice phenology dataset for the Northern Hemisphere based on passive microwave remote sensing

open access: yesBig Earth Data, 2022
Lake ice phenology (LIP) is an essential indicator of climate change and helps with understanding of the regional characteristics of climate change impacts.
