A multivariate-driven approach for disentangling the reduction in near-natural Iberian water resources post-1980 [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Although the literature still debates how several anthropogenic and natural factors have contributed to the recent streamflow decline in the Iberian Peninsula, a continuing decrease in winter precipitation (WP) has been noticed in this area since the ...

The relationship between (sub)tropical climates and the incidence of COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
This work explores (non)linear associations between relative humidity and temperature and the incidence of COVID-19 among 27 Brazilian state capital cities in (sub)tropical climates, measured daily from summer through winter. Previous works analyses have

Multi-Criteria Performance Evaluation of Gridded Precipitation and Temperature Products in Data-Sparse Regions

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Inadequate climate data stations often make hydrological modelling a rather challenging task in data-sparse regions. Gridded climate data can be used as an alternative; however, their accuracy in replicating the climatology of the region of interest with

High resolution monitoring and probabilistic prediction of meteorological drought in a Mediterranean environment

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2023
Drought remains a costly natural disaster, with strong socio-economic and environmental impacts. Skilful seasonal drought forecasts can help to make early decisions.

Dust plume formation in the free troposphere and aerosol size distribution during the Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment in North Africa [PDF]

open access: yesTellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2015
Dust particles mixed in the free troposphere have longer lifetimes than airborne particles near the surface. Their cumulative radiative impact on earth's meteorological processes and climate might be significant despite their relatively small ...

Behaviourally modern humans in coastal southern Africa experienced an increasingly continental climate during the transition from Marine Isotope Stage 5 to 4

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Linking human technological and behavioural advances to environmental changes is challenging, as it requires a robust understanding of past climate at local scales.

Impact of aerosol on post-frontal convective clouds over Germany [PDF]

open access: yesTellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2014
We carried out simulations with predefined and simulated aerosol distributions in order to investigate the improvement in the forecasting capabilities of an operational weather forecast model by the use of an improved aerosol representation.

Social, Economic, and Regional Determinants of Mortality in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19 in Brazil

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2022
On May 10, 2021, Brazil ranked second in the world in COVID-19 deaths. Understanding risk factors, or social and ethnic inequality in health care according to a given city population and political or economic weakness is of paramount importance.

Regional geomagnetic field modelling: the contribution of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1997
Models of the geomagnetic field are mathematical expressions able to represent the Earth's magnetic field space and time variations. Time variations on the long term basis are represented by the so-called secular variation.

The Social Barrier of Strategic Coupling: A Case Study of the Letpadaung Copper Mine in Myanmar

open access: yesLand, 2022
Civil society is not as impotent as argued by many scholars in facing the pervasive force of economic globalization, and instead can play an important role in the strategic coupling of multinationals with localities.
