Predictors of Delayed and Omitted Postoperative Radiotherapy After Laryngectomy for pT4 Laryngeal Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) improves locoregional control and survival in high‐risk head and neck cancer, and guidelines recommend initiation within 42 days of surgery. Timeliness after laryngectomy for pathologic T4 (pT4) laryngeal cancer is poorly characterized.

Improving Daily Rainfall Downscaling Over Taiwan's Complex Terrain With Surface‐Wind‐Informed Deep Learning Model

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
An encoder–decoder architecture (EDA) dynamically downscales coarse‐resolution climate fields (0.25°) to high‐resolution outputs (0.05°) over Taiwan, improving the representation of fine‐scale spatial variability and localized extremes by incorporating both rainfall and surface winds to maintain physical consistency.

Investigating the Impact of El Niño–Southern Oscillation on Rangeland Productivity in the Limpopo Province, South Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigated ENSO effects on rainfall variability and rangeland productivity across Limpopo Province, South Africa, using DMP and ONI data for 1999–2024. Productivity was higher in eastern and southern regions and lower in northern and western regions.

Congo Air Boundary Breakdown Timing and Its Connection to Southern African Rainfall Onset in Reanalyses and Historical CMIP6 Models

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Congo Air Boundary (CAB) occurs where two air masses with different humidities meet over Africa. The CAB is investigated in three reanalyses, datasets combining observations with forecasts. Between 1980 and 2010, the reanalyses show that when the CAB reduces in daily frequency between August and December, rainfall over central southern Africa ...

Added Value of CESM‐Driven WRF for Mean and Extreme Precipitation Over Complex Terrain in Southwest Asia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Southwest Asia remains understudied in high‐resolution regional climate modelling despite its climatic sensitivity and complex orography. We compare WRF (10 km), CESM (~2°), and ERA5 (0.25°) for 1950–2002, with supplementary validation against CHIRPS and PERSIANN‐CDR. WRF corrects the unrealistic summer precipitation overestimation of CESM and improves

Assessment of the Exposure of Australia to Tropical Cyclones Through a Climatological Model for Cyclone Weather Extent

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Australia has different levels of exposure to tropical cyclones. Using historical records, this study investigates the spatial variability of tropical cyclone formation across the Southeast Indian–South Pacific basin, quantifies the exposure of different parts of Australia to tropical cyclone weather events, and examines decadal variability in cyclone ...

Beyond ENSO: Temperature, Rainfall Variability and Emerging Climate Risks in Belize

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyses 50 years (1975–2024) of Belize's climate data to evaluate ENSO's influence. Results show negligible ENSO impact on rainfall but a moderate signal in nighttime dry‐season temperatures, with El Niño years 0.5°C–1.0°C warmer than La Niña years.

Spatio‐Temporal Assessment of the Complementarity Between Hydroelectric, Wind and Solar Energy Sources for Northeastern Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using 24 years of climate and hydrological data, this study quantifies the spatiotemporal complementarity among the water availability of the Sobradinho reservoir, wind and solar in Northeastern Brazil. The integration of hierarchical clustering and compromise programming reveals how seasonal variability and reservoir dynamics interact with atmospheric

How Thunderstorms Are Changing in Mexico: Trends and Characteristics

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Thunderstorm days in Mexico have increased significantly since 1992, with pronounced regional and seasonal contrasts. Increasing moisture emerges as the most spatially coherent environmental signal. At the same time, enhanced instability characterizes northeastern and central Mexico, revealing distinct regional controls on thunderstorm activity and ...

Small‐Scale Topographic Variability Shapes Molecular Diversity of Organic Matter in Coastal Dune Soils

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Topography shapes ecosystem controls, driving microclimate, hydrology, and vegetation, which, in turn, influence topsoil traits and DOM composition in coastal dune soils. Distinct molecular patterns emerge across north‐facing and south‐facing slopes and dune valleys.
