ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified the atmospheric water cycle, leading to more frequent and severe extreme precipitation events, which are a major driver of rainstorm‐induced flooding. Developing regions such as the China–Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC), spanning highly heterogeneous terrain and climate zones, face elevated risk due to limited ...

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.

Breakthrough in Measuring Snowfall Intensity With Hybrid Deep Learning and Surveillance Cameras
Abstract Accurate snowfall measurements are vital for disaster mitigation, climate studies, and many other applications. Widely deployed surveillance cameras offer novel possibilities for fine‐scale snowfall observation. This paper proposes HySnowNet, a hybrid framework that first extracts snowflakes using physical frequency domain techniques, then ...

Deep‐Seated Landslide Stability on Curved Basal Surfaces With and Without Glacier Buttressing
Abstract Glacial retreat influences landslide dynamics, yet the controls on stability and transient acceleration remain unclear. We develop a two‐dimensional mechanical model of landslides with curved basal surfaces, Mohr‐Coulomb friction, and ice buttressing.

Prediction of Hydroclimatic Anomalies Using a New Isotope Precipitation Index
Abstract Global warming is driving changes in atmospheric moisture seasonality and an increase in the frequency of prolonged precipitation anomalies. These anomalies are often assumed to be characterized by moisture sourced from oceanic evaporation, rather than being moderated by recycled terrestrial evapotranspiration. However, current indexes used to

Interannual Variations of Precipitation Events at Dome Fuji Station, Antarctica
Abstract Precipitation is key to the water budget of inland Antarctica, with extreme precipitation events strongly influencing snowfall and surface climatology. To investigate the contribution and trends of such events at Dome Fuji station (DF) in inland Antarctica, this study analyzed precipitation variability using the ERA5 product validated against ...

Abstract Basin‐wide snow depth (SD) maps can support operational water supply assessments, but their availability is limited by measurement costs (airborne) or sampling constraints (satellite and drone). We present Swath‐random forest (RF), a methodology that trains random forests on SD measured within a narrow swath (<10% of a basin) to extrapolate ...

Abstract Viruses constitute a significant subset of bioaerosols whose roles in cloud ice processes remain understudied. Continuous observations of viruses and total airborne microbes (TAMs) in precipitation were conducted in Qingdao from March 2024 to December 2025.
