Spatio‐Temporal Analysis of Human Thermal Comfort and Relationships With Large‐Scale Climate Indices Along Ghana's Coastal‐Urban Corridor From 1980 to 2020

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Four decades of UTCI data show increasing thermal stress along Ghana's coastal‐urban corridor, with very strong heat‐stress days rising by about 1.4 days/year. Random Forest–SHAP analysis with temporal validation identified AOD as the strongest model‐based predictor of monthly UTCI variability, followed by TSA, WHWP, and AMO.

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

open access: yesInternational 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

Responses of primary producers, anoxia, and chemical feedback to Late Glacial climate change: Insights from a paired lake approach

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Worldwide, lacustrine ecosystems are threatened by eutrophication and deoxygenation. Both processes are driven by the combined effects of human activities and climate change. Understanding the pre‐anthropogenic nexus between warming, eutrophication, deoxygenation, and related feedback is essential to determine how lakes respond to rapid ...

Revealing Dust Source Changes in East Asia From Past to Future: An Interpretable Deep Learning Approach

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aeolian dust source areas are controlled by climate and human activities and are closely associated with land degradation, yet their long‐term evolution under global warming remains insufficiently quantified. An integrated framework that couples a U‐Net segmentation model with Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) was built to map and attribute

Shaping Liquid Crystal Rubbers by Chemical Potential Gradient

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Depositing a low molecular weight liquid crystal drop onto a uniformly aligned LCE leads to non‐uniform swelling, enabling temporary shape changes and bending actuation. These deformations are quantitatively modeled for different alignment conditions, and methods to permanently lock desired shapes are explored.
