A Characterisation of Extreme‐Heat Occurrence and Its Trends in Mexico Based on a High Resolution Dataset

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
As Mexico faces rising temperatures and increasing events of extreme heat, improvements in the analysis and characterisation of these phenomena are necessary, as they offer new insights into the spatial variability of such trends and their underlying causes.

Sea state monitoring using coastal GNSS-R

open access: yes, 2004
We report on a coastal experiment to study GPS L1 reflections. The campaign was carried out at the Barcelona Port breaker and dedicated to the development of sea-state retrieval algorithms.

Characteristics of Intense Multi‐Day Wet Spells Over West Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study reveals a significant increase in intense wet spells, particularly in KASS‐D, emphasising the value of dense rain‐gauge networks. Larger‐sized events have grown, while smaller ones declined, boosting 3‐day and 5‐day wet spells' contribution to annual rainfall, with the Guinea Coast showing the highest increase and the Sahel the lowest ...

Stochastic Modelling of Daily Precipitation in Semi‐Arid Regions Using Markov Chains and Parametric Distributions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Remote sensing for oceanography: Past, present, future [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Oceanic dynamics was traditionally investigated by sampling from instruments in situ, yielding quantitative measurements that are intermittent in both space and time; the ocean is undersampled.

Operational oceanography in support to indicator reporting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Abstract. Operational Oceanography (OO) has now emerged to a stage that allows the design, development and execution of marine core services tailored to user requirements. As such it is also feasible to provide routine production of environmental and climate indicators.

Urban Heat Island in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East: Multi‐City Approach in Regional Climate Modelling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study presents that the WRF model, coupled with bulk urban parameterization, effectively captures the summer urban heat island (UHI) patterns across the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East, showing stronger night‐time surface UHIs (5°C–6°C) and daytime surface cool islands (up to 12.5°C).

Does operational oceanography address the needs of fisheries and applied environmental scientists? [PDF]

open access: yes
Although many oceanographic data products are now considered operational, continued dialogue between data producers and their user communities is still needed.

Trends and Circulation Conditions of Precipitation Over the Sudeten Mountains (Central Europe) in the Years 1961–2020

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Significant trends of precipitation totals are visible at seasonal (negative in spring and positive in winter) and monthly level. The deepening rainfall deficit in April in Western Sudetes threatens the stabilisation of forest ecosystems, the preservation of biodiversity and significantly limits water resources for economic use.
