Impacts of Low‐Level Jets on Moisture Transport to the Pantanal, Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The moisture transports from the tropics to the subtropics by the low‐level jets (LLJs) east of the Andes crossing the Pantanal region. Four LLJs, east of the Andes, were identified and selected with correspondent Lagrangian moisture transport. The LLJ moisture source regions contribute to Pantanal (~63.5%) and precipitation increased (~30%) during LLJ

Improving the Operational Methodology of Tropical Cyclone Seasonal Prediction in the Australian and the South Pacific Ocean Regions

Advances in Meteorology, 2014
Tropical cyclones (TCs) can have a major impact on the coastal communities of Australia and Pacific Island countries. Preparedness is one of the key factors to limit TC impacts and the Australian Bureau of Meteorology issues an outlook of TC seasonal ...

Intensification of Flash and Long‐Term Droughts in the Danube River Basin: A Multi‐Scale Analysis Using Satellite‐Derived Evaporative Stress Index and Soil Water Index

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Analysed drought intensification in the Danube using Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) and Soil Water Index (SWI). Flesh drought detection: developed thresholds for rapid drought detection using ESI‐4Wk and SWI‐40. Multi‐layer analysis: combined atmospheric stress and soil moisture to assess drought impacts.

A Characterisation of Extreme‐Heat Occurrence and Its Trends in Mexico Based on a High Resolution Dataset

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
As Mexico faces rising temperatures and increasing events of extreme heat, improvements in the analysis and characterisation of these phenomena are necessary, as they offer new insights into the spatial variability of such trends and their underlying causes.

Characteristics of Intense Multi‐Day Wet Spells Over West Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study reveals a significant increase in intense wet spells, particularly in KASS‐D, emphasising the value of dense rain‐gauge networks. Larger‐sized events have grown, while smaller ones declined, boosting 3‐day and 5‐day wet spells' contribution to annual rainfall, with the Guinea Coast showing the highest increase and the Sahel the lowest ...

Long range experimental hydrologic forecasting for the eastern U.S. [PDF]

, 2002
We explore a strategy for long-range hydrologic forecasting that uses ensemble climate model forecasts as input to a macroscale hydrologic model to produce runoff and streamflow forecasts at spatial and temporal scales appropriate for water management ...

Stochastic Modelling of Daily Precipitation in Semi‐Arid Regions Using Markov Chains and Parametric Distributions

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Tropical intraseasonal oscillations as key driver and source of predictability for the 2022 Pakistan record-breaking rainfall event

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science
In August 2022, Pakistan experienced unprecedented monsoon rains, leading to devastating floods and landslides affecting millions. While previous research has mainly focused on the contributions of seasonal and synoptic anomalies, this study elucidates ...
