Errors of Tropical Cyclone-Induced Ocean Waves in Reanalysis Using Buoy Data

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Due to limited in-situ ocean observations, reanalysis data are often considered as an important source for studying tropical cyclone (TC)-induced ocean waves. Here, we introduced a method to quantitatively evaluate the errors of TC-induced ocean waves in

Severity of Compound Precipitation and Temperature Extreme Events Over Africa at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming Levels

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 ...

Atmospheric response to observed intraseasonal tropical sea surface temperature anomalies [PDF]

, 2004
The major tropical convective and circulation features of the intraseasonal or Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) are simulated as a passive response to observed MJO sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM),

Thin Arctic sea ice in L-band observations and an ocean reanalysis

The Cryosphere, 2018
. L-band radiance measurements of the Earth's surface such as those from the SMOS satellite can be used to retrieve the thickness of thin sea ice in the range 0–1 m under cold surface conditions.

Utilising Benford's Law in the Validation of Precipitation Datasets

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates Benford's Law as a robust diagnostic tool for precipitation data integrity. Global monthly precipitation consistently conforms to the law, regardless of origin, while regional data requires appropriate temporal granularity for adherence.

Vertical Heating Structures Associated with the MJO as Characterized by TRMM Estimates, ECMWF Reanalyses, and Forecasts: A Case Study during 1998/99 Winter [PDF]

, 2009
The Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) is a fundamental mode of the tropical atmosphere variability that exerts significant influence on global climate and weather systems.

Comparison of Reanalysis Data Sets to Comprehend the Evolution of Tropical Cyclones Over North Indian Ocean

Earth and Space Science, 2020
Several reanalysis data sets are being used for understanding the role of environmental factors controlling tropical cyclones (TCs) evolution. Six reanalysis data sets, namely, European Center for Medium‐range Weather Forecast (ECMWF) ERA‐Interim (ERAI ...

Impacts of Low‐Level Jets on Moisture Transport to the Pantanal, Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The moisture transports from the tropics to the subtropics by the low‐level jets (LLJs) east of the Andes crossing the Pantanal region. Four LLJs, east of the Andes, were identified and selected with correspondent Lagrangian moisture transport. The LLJ moisture source regions contribute to Pantanal (~63.5%) and precipitation increased (~30%) during LLJ

Bias Correction and Statistical Modeling of Variable Oceanic Forcing of Greenland Outlet Glaciers

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
Variability in oceanic conditions directly impacts ice loss from marine outlet glaciers in Greenland, influencing the ice sheet mass balance. Oceanic conditions are available from Atmosphere‐Ocean Global Climate Model (AOGCM) output, but these models ...
