How Well Is Surface Diurnal Temperature Range Represented by Observations at 2‐m Level
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.We demonstrate that geostationary satellites depict well the Diurnal Temperature Range (DTR) in the US but differ from information at 2 m level from model outputs. Upper: mean diurnal temperature range (DTR) using GOES‐E based land surface temperature (LST) for January (left) and July (right) during 2004–2009. Lower: mean diurnal temperature range (DTR)

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2019 Satellite data are underutilized in many branches of operational oceanography. Users outside of the satellite community often encounter difficulty in discovering the types of satellite measurements that are available, and determining which satellite ...

Performance Evaluation of the MPAS Model in Simulating Southeast Asian Rainfall Characteristics
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study evaluates the performance of the Model for Prediction Across Scales–Atmosphere (MPAS) in reproducing key rainfall characteristics over Southeast Asia (SEA) during 2000–2020, using the MSWEP dataset as reference. MPAS realistically captures the observed meridional rainfall gradient, with higher rainfall in the south and lower in the north, as

Ocean Backscatter Profiling Using High-Spectral-Resolution Lidar and a Perturbation Retrieval
Remote Sensing, 2018 Ocean lidar attenuation and scattering parameters were derived from a high-spectral-resolution lidar (HSRL) using two different retrieval techniques. The first used the standard HSRL retrieval, and the second used only the total backscatter channel and a

The Emergence of a Climate Change Signal in Ireland's Rainfall Extremes
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Analysis of Irish precipitation records (1930–2019) shows significant relationships between rainfall extremes and global mean surface temperature (GMST), with increases of 12%–27% per °C of warming. Emergence of unusual climate conditions is already evident at several stations, most notably in the west during winter and the southeast during summer ...

What Do Latest CMIP6 Global Climate Models Say About Future Arctic Sea Ice Coverage Changes?
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Modelling of sea ice dynamics has significantly improved between CMIP5 and CMIP6, with nearly three times as many models capturing realistic annual variability in sea ice extent (SIE). What we previously thought was a non‐linear pattern of low SIE observations in 2007–2010 that would continue throughout time now appears to be non‐record‐setting lows in

Seasonal Characteristics of Mesoscale Convective Systems Over the Philippines
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study examines how mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) over the Philippines are most frequent during boreal summer, while those in winter are longer‐lived and more intense due to cold surges and enhanced easterly moisture transport. Intraseasonal oscillations, such as the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) and the Boreal Summer Intraseasonal ...
