Improving Daily Rainfall Downscaling Over Taiwan's Complex Terrain With Surface‐Wind‐Informed Deep Learning Model

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
An encoder–decoder architecture (EDA) dynamically downscales coarse‐resolution climate fields (0.25°) to high‐resolution outputs (0.05°) over Taiwan, improving the representation of fine‐scale spatial variability and localized extremes by incorporating both rainfall and surface winds to maintain physical consistency.

Congo Air Boundary Breakdown Timing and Its Connection to Southern African Rainfall Onset in Reanalyses and Historical CMIP6 Models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Congo Air Boundary (CAB) occurs where two air masses with different humidities meet over Africa. The CAB is investigated in three reanalyses, datasets combining observations with forecasts. Between 1980 and 2010, the reanalyses show that when the CAB reduces in daily frequency between August and December, rainfall over central southern Africa ...

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

Shifting Patterns of Precipitation Extremes in the Southeast Atlantic Basin—Brazil: From Observed Trends to Future Projections

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Observed trends and EC‐Earth3 climate model projections demonstrate expressive changes in the Southeast Atlantic Hydrographic Basin, Brazil. Significant increases in rainfall intensity and dry spell duration in the present climate are followed by projected amplification of extreme precipitation under future warming, particularly under the SSP5‐8.5 ...

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.
