Excessive rainfall leads to maize yield loss of a comparable magnitude to extreme drought in the United States

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2019
Increasing drought and extreme rainfall are major threats to maize production in the United States. However, compared to drought impact, the impact of excessive rainfall on crop yield remains unresolved.

Validation of the CHIRPS satellite rainfall estimates over eastern Africa

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2018
Long and temporally consistent rainfall time series are essential in climate analyses and applications. Rainfall data from station observations are inadequate over many parts of the world due to sparse or non‐existent observation networks, or limited ...

Western Indian Ocean marine and terrestrial records of climate variability: a review and new concepts on land-ocean interactions since AD 1660 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We examine the relationship between three tropical and two subtropical western Indian Ocean coral oxygen isotope time series to surface air temperatures (SAT) and rainfall over India, tropical East Africa and southeast Africa.

Mitigation Effect of Dense “Water Network” on Heavy PM2.5 Pollution: A Case Model of the Twain-Hu Basin, Central China

open access: yesToxics, 2023
The influence of the underlying surface on the atmospheric environment over rivers and lakes is not fully understood. To improve our understanding, this study targeted the Twain-Hu Basin (THB) in central China, with a unique underlying surface comprising

Extreme rainfall in East Africa, October 2019–January 2020 and context under future climate change

open access: yesWeather, 2020
The 2019 October-December rains over East Africa were one of the wettest seasons on record, with many locations receiving more than double the climatological rainfall, leading to floods and landslides across the region.

Mechanisms of multiyear variations of Northern Australia wet-season rainfall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Northern Australia wet season (November–April) rainfall exhibits strong variability on multiyear timescales. In order to reveal the underlying mechanisms of this variability, we investigate observational records for the period 1900–2017.

Mass Exchange of Water and Soil on the Soil Surface in the Rainfall Splash Erosion

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
This research aims to unfold the mass exchange mechanism of water and soil on the soil surface in the rainfall splash erosion process. We regard the rainfall splash erosion process as a collision process between the raindrop and the soil particle on the ...
