Healing Beams: Radiation and Radiotherapy in Novels, Poems, Music, Film, Painting

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients and the general public as mysterious, dangerous and healing. The image of radiation and radiotherapy can be analysed by studying novels, poems, music, film and painting. Our paper reviews how radiation and radiotherapy are perceived by patients, the general public, as reflected in various art genres.

Correcting Breaks in Temperature and Humidity Observations: Implications for Climate Variability Analysis in Austria

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A 2‐h shift in the timing of evening observations in 1971 resulted in a discontinuity in the estimation of daily means of air temperature and humidity across all climate stations in Austria. This study employs hourly observations to, for the first time, comprehensively quantify and correct this break.

Severity of Compound Precipitation and Temperature Extreme Events Over Africa at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming Levels

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...

Synchronisation of Extreme Precipitation and Sea Surface Temperature Events in the Northern Hemisphere: A Complex Network Approach

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using complex network theory and event synchronisation, we find distinct spatiotemporal structures of extreme precipitation and sea surface temperature events across the Northern Hemisphere. Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...

Utilising Benford's Law in the Validation of Precipitation Datasets

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates Benford's Law as a robust diagnostic tool for precipitation data integrity. Global monthly precipitation consistently conforms to the law, regardless of origin, while regional data requires appropriate temporal granularity for adherence.
