Characterising City Scale Heat Climatology for Australian Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Australian cities peaks at night, intensifying under dry conditions, clear skies, increased solar radiation, and low wind speeds. Long‐term observations show that nighttime temperatures in major cities have warmed faster than their rural surroundings and future climate projections fail to capture this disparity ...

Estimation of Downwelling Surface Longwave Radiation under Heavy Dust Aerosol Sky

Remote Sensing, 2017
The variation of aerosols, especially dust aerosol, in time and space plays an important role in climate forcing studies. Aerosols can effectively reduce land surface longwave emission and re-emit energy at a colder temperature, which makes it difficult ...

Tropical Free‐Tropospheric Humidity Differences and Their Effect on the Clear‐Sky Radiation Budget in Global Storm‐Resolving Models

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021
Reducing the model spread in free‐tropospheric relative humidity (RH) and its response to warming is a crucial step toward reducing the uncertainty in clear‐sky climate sensitivity, a step that is hoped to be taken with recently developed global storm ...

A framework to evaluate and identify development requirements for land‐surface models at km‐scale resolution: Application to a semi‐arid and mountainous region

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need

Remote sensing of earth’s energy budget: synthesis and review

International Journal of Digital Earth, 2019
The Earth’s climate is largely determined by its energy budget. Since the 1960s, satellite remote sensing has been used in estimating these energy budget components at both the top of the atmosphere (TOA) and the surface.

First Observations of Cirrus Clouds Using the UZ Mie Lidar over uMhlathuze City, South Africa

Applied Sciences, 2022
Clouds cover more than two-thirds of the earth’s surface and play a dominant role in the energy and water cycle of our planet. Cirrus clouds are high-level clouds composed mostly of ice crystals and affect the earth’s radiation allocation mainly by ...

Unified Attention Recurrent Neural Network for Bias Correction of MJO Prediction

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract In global subseasonal forecasting using dynamical models, correcting the systematic biases of Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) predictions has proven critical, particularly due to issues of rapid amplitude damping and phase distortion. To address these biases, recent studies have demonstrated that deep learning offers a promising solution by ...
