Revisiting the Relationship Between Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification and the Distribution of Inner‐Core Precipitation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The relationship between tropical cyclone (TC) rapid intensification (RI) and the distribution of inner‐core precipitation preceding RI is reexamined using satellite‐based precipitation measurements and best‐track data.

Tropical cyclone rapid intensification and the excitation of inertia-gravity waves on the edges of an evolving potential vorticity structure

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The problem of tropical cyclone rapid intensification is reduced to a potential vorticity (PV) equation and a second order, inhomogeneous, partial differential equation for the azimuthal wind.

Rapid strengthening of westerlies accompanied intensification of Northern Hemisphere glaciation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
AbstractThe trigger, pace, and nature of the intensification of Northern Hemisphere Glaciation (iNHG) are uncertain, but can be probed by study of ODP Site 1208 North Pacific marine sediments. Herein, we present magnetic proxy data that indicate a 4-fold increase of dust between ~ 2.73 and ~ 2.72 Ma, with subsequent increases at the start of glacials ...

The Increased Likelihood in the 21st Century for a Tropical Cyclone to Rapidly Intensify When Crossing a Warm Ocean Feature—A Simple Model’s Prediction

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
A warm ocean feature (WOF) is a blob of the ocean’s surface where the sea-surface temperature (SST) is anomalously warmer than its adjacent ambient SST. Examples are warm coastal seas in summer, western boundary currents, and warm eddies. Several studies

Modulation of tropical cyclone rapid intensification by mesoscale asymmetries

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2023
AbstractComputer model simulations are one of the most important tools in current use for understanding tropical cyclone (TC) formation and rapid intensification (RI). These include “idealized” simulations in which a TC‐like vortex is placed in a hypothetical environment with predefined sea surface temperature and vertical profiles of temperature ...

Extinctions of aculeate pollinators in Britain and the role of large-scale agricultural changes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Pollinators are fundamental to maintaining both biodiversity and agricultural productivity, but habitat destruction, loss of flower resources, and increased use of pesticides are causing declines in their abundance and diversity. Using historical records

A Shortening of the Life Cycle of Major Tropical Cyclones

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2020
In this study a comprehensive picture of the changing intensity life cycle of major (Category 3 and higher) tropical cyclones (TCs) is presented. Over the past decades, the lifetime maximum intensity has increased, but there has also been a significant ...

Quasi-biennial modulation of rapidly intensifying tropical cyclones by the western North Pacific monsoon

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications, 2023
Previous publications have highlighted the relationship between several climate modes such as El Niño–Southern Oscillation and tropical cyclones (TCs) experiencing rapid intensification (RI) over the western North Pacific (WNP), particularly on a 3–7-yr ...

First IBEX observations of the terrestrial plasma sheet and a possible disconnection event [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission has recently provided the first all-sky maps of energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) emitted from the edge of the heliosphere as well as the first observations of ENAs from the Moon and from the magnetosheath ...
