ERA5 Can Overstate Changes in the Frequency of Extreme Heat: A New Zealand Case Study

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
ERA5 reproduces broad patterns of summer warming across New Zealand but underestimates temperature variability and warm‐tail extremes, biasing estimates of extreme heat risk. ABSTRACT Summertime temperature extremes exert profound impacts on human health, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet their characteristics and drivers remain poorly quantified in ...

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

International 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.

ENSO or the Atlantic: Which Actually Governs the Hydrological Vulnerability of the Caatinga?

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study challenges the traditional ENSO‐centric paradigm of rainfall variability in the Caatinga by demonstrating that the Tropical Atlantic exerts a statistically dominant influence on regional hydrological vulnerability. Using a seasonal ARX/HAC model and CHIRPS data, we establish a new hierarchy of climatic drivers across six rainfall districts ...

Climate Change Projections for Mexico in the 21st Century

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Projected national temperature by the end of the century under four SSP scenarios. Under the low‐emission pathway (SSP1‐2.6), warming increases more gradually, whereas under the high‐emission scenario (SSP5‐8.5), temperatures exceed 5°C by 2100. These results strengthen the scientific basis for climate adaptation planning and long‐term decision‐making ...

Investigating the Impact of El Niño–Southern Oscillation on Rangeland Productivity in the Limpopo Province, South Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigated ENSO effects on rainfall variability and rangeland productivity across Limpopo Province, South Africa, using DMP and ONI data for 1999–2024. Productivity was higher in eastern and southern regions and lower in northern and western regions.

Short‐Term Agricultural Drought Prediction Using Explainable Data‐Driven Models and Quantified Uncertainty

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that explainable deep learning models can skilfully predict short‐term agricultural drought using standardized drought indices, capturing hydroclimatic memory and seasonal persistence. The integration of uncertainty quantification and SHAP‐based interpretability reveals the dominant role of antecedent moisture and climate ...

Persistent vegetative state

Lancet, The, 1997
SIR—Adam Zeman (Sept 13, p 795) is to be congratulated on his excellent discussion of the concept of persistent vegetative state (PVS). As he points out, this concept is based on a particular model of consciousness and wakefulness that has certain shortcomings.

Persistent vegetative state [PDF]

Lancet, The, 1992
Persistent vegetative state (PVS) was first described in 1972 and refers to a clinical condition in which there is a lack of self-awareness (complete unawareness of the self) despite the patient having sleep–wake cycles, other basic reflexes (such as blinking or withdrawing the hand when it is squeezed hard), being capable of spontaneous breathing, and
