The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Fuzzy postprocessing of seasonal climate forecasts for semiarid river basins
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Meteorological forecasts from AI‐based fuzzy rule‐based system (FRB) are compared to linear scaling (LS) and quantile mapping (QM). Seasonal forecasts from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) are considered. Results show that the highest skill is achieved for the FRB approach.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Soil Moisture Active Passive soil moisture retrievals are assimilated into a land surface model and the resulting land reanalysis product is used to initialise the land component of coupled land‐atmosphere experiments. We show that the local impact of land data assimilation on the atmosphere is influenced by two factors: the magnitude by which it ...

Classification of Fog Life‐Cycle Phases Using Ground‐Based and Satellite‐Based Observations
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.In this study, the life‐cycle phases of radiation fog events—formation, maturity, and dissipation—are automatically classified at a ground station in Southwest Germany based on visibility trends and thresholds. We demonstrate that visibility detects radiation fog phases effectively, while its combination with ceilometer data can detect the life‐cycle ...
