Getting hands‐on with hedges—Does experiential engagement in plant science experiments affect secondary school pupils' environmental perceptions?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
In towns and cities, vegetation growing around streets and buildings can lessen the risks posed by extreme heat, rainfall and poor air quality. However, the urban public (and particularly, youth) have limited awareness of these environmental benefits.

On the meridional asymmetry of the poleward‐displaced intertropical convergence zone

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We analyze the complex, asymmetrical dynamical structure of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) in the East Pacific and Atlantic basins, seen during boreal summer, using a global, coupled storm‐resolving simulation. The equatorial pressure gradients lead to the acceleration of southerlies, which decelerate when the zonal flow becomes westerly ...

Mesoscale dynamics of cyclone Leslie (2018): A diagnostic analysis of a rare Iberian landfall

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study presents a successful numerical simulation of cyclone Leslie (2018), using WRF‐ARW v4.5.1. Several mesoscale dynamics were identified indicative of the occurrence of sting jet and cold conveyor belt, which potentiated the record‐breaking winds in central Portugal.

Climatology of upper‐tropospheric turbulence: Capabilities and limitations of aircraft reports and ERA5 reanalysis diagnostics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Based on turbulence diagnostics, airlines are willing to avoid up to 15% of the airspace in order to avoid a fraction of turbulence that takes up about 0.1% of the airspace. This study quantifies these three fractions using turbulence reports from commercial aircraft and ERA5 reanalysis diagnostics, revealing that the low and regionally variable ...

UCanWBGT: urban street canyon heat stress calculation for weather and climate models

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This work introduces UCanWBGT, a new model to calculate wet‐bulb globe temperature in an urban environment, suitable for use with weather and climate model data. We present the model, then verify its performance against observations made in the streets of Paris during heatwave conditions.
