Satellite Clear‐Sky Observations Overestimate Surface Urban Heat Islands in Humid Cities

Geophysical Research Letters
Satellite‐based thermal infrared (TIR) land surface temperature (LST) is hindered by cloud cover and is applicable solely under clear‐sky conditions for estimating surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII).

Preconditioned Stratospheric Modulation on the Occurrence of Stratospheric Final Warmings

Geophysical Research Letters
Stratospheric Final Warmings (SFWs) are considered to have a distinct impact on the surface weather and stratospheric ozone. Most SFWs are predominantly wave‐driven, while previous studies generally focused on the effects of tropospheric anomalous wave ...

Distinct Mixing Regimes in Shallow Cumulus Clouds

Geophysical Research Letters
Understanding the nature of mixing between cloudy air and its surroundings is an important and yet, open question. In this research, we use high‐resolution (10 m) bin‐microphysics Large Eddy Simulation of a cumulus cloud, together with a Lagrangian ...

Lithospheric Rheology and Crustal Deformation Across the Northeastern Tibet and Their Implications for Plateau Growth

Geophysical Research Letters
Understanding lithospheric rheology is crucial in investigating tectonic evolution of intra‐continental tectonic boundary. Here, we use geodetic observations to infer lithospheric rheology across the northeastern Tibet based on a 2D viscoelastic model ...

Under‐Ice Mixed Layers and the Regulation of Early Spring Phytoplankton Growth in the Southern Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters
Under‐ice phytoplankton “blooms” have been observed in the Southern Ocean, although irradiance is extremely low and vertical mixing is assumed to be deep.

Volcanic Eruption Triggers a Rare Meteotsunami in the Indian Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters
This study presents the observation and evaluation of a meteotsunami in the Indian Ocean triggered by the Hunga‐Tonga volcanic eruption. The event was detected through tide gauges and bottom‐pressure recordings across the Indian Ocean, with an amplitude ...
