Analysis of Climate Variability of Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies in Southeast South America (SESA)

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We studied rainfall variability and cyclicity in six Homogeneous Regions of Rainfall Anomalies (HRRA) in Southeast South America (SESA) from 1961 to 2020 to understand the occurrence of droughts and above‐average rainfall. We use a continental analysis scale, focusing on seasonal, interannual, and interdecadal cycles, and their association with modes ...

Degradation of Seasonally Frozen Ground in the Three–River Source Region and Its Correlation Impact Within Precipitation–Runoff Process

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Causes of the Interannual Variation of Summer Precipitation in Eastern Southwest China

Atmosphere, 2023
Using ERA5 reanalysis data, we conducted an EOF analysis of summer precipitation in the eastern part of southwestern China (ESWC) over the past 60 years.

Assessing the Performance of the Copernicus European Regional Reanalysis Dataset in Reproducing Extreme Weather Events in Poland

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Global reanalyses, for example ERA5 and ERA5‐Land, tend to misrepresent the local‐scale weather extremes due to the limited spatial resolution. In this paper CERRA shows clear and consistent improvements over ERA5 and ERA5‐Land in representing extreme temperature and precipitation in Poland, particularly for localized and short‐lived heavy rainfall ...

Ever‐present South Atlantic Anomaly damages spacecraft [PDF]

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2002
On 15 June 2001, at 3:56 UT, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), one of NASAs prime remote sensing instruments on the TERRA spacecraft, was rendered inoperative while on the western flank of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA). The SAA is a vaguely‐defined, oval‐shaped geographic region centered roughly off the east coast of Brazil ...

Tracking Summer Greenland Blocking: The Upstream Pathway Shapes Historical Extremes and Future Change

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates summer Greenland atmospheric blocking using the Lagrangian tracking Python package blocktrack applied to ERA5 reanalysis and CMIP6 models. Two types of blocks—upstream (Northern Canada origin) and retrograding (Northern Atlantic origin)—are distinguished, with upstream blocks driving recent observed frequency increasing trends ...

The Possible Influence of Atmospheric Circulation and North Atlantic Sea Surface Temperature Anomaly on the Winter Cold Wave Frequency in the Southern China

Gaoyuan qixiang
Based on the daily minimum temperature station data provided by the National Meteorological Information Centre from 1980 to 2022， the month-by-month reanalysis data of the NCEP/NCAR， and the monthly Sea Surface Temperature （SST） data from the NOAA， by ...

Equatorial electrojet in the south Atlantic anomaly region

Journal of Earth System Science, 2011
Features of the equatorial electrojet are studied at Sao Luiz (2.6°S, 44.2°W, inclination −0.25°) in eastern Brazil and Sikasso (11.3°N, 5.7°W, inclination 0.1°) in the western African sector. The stations are situated on either side of the lowest magnetic field intensity in the region of rapid changes in the declination.

Spatiotemporal Changes and Climate Driving Factors of Compound Precipitation‐Temperature Extreme Events Across Global Land Areas

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
During the period 1901–2024, the dominant proportion of compound dry‐warm extremes in annual, June–July–August (JJA), and December–January–February (DJF) occurrences was the highest among the four types of compound precipitation and temperature extremes across global land areas, accounting for 40.1%, 50.3%, and 28.0%, respectively.

Early deglaciation history of the southeastern Baffin Island shelf (Eastern Canadian Arctic Archipelago)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the last glacial period, the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) was the largest terrestrial ice sheet on Earth. Its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum profoundly influenced Earth's geodynamics and surface processes. Investigating the past dynamics of the LIS provides critical insights into how contemporary ice sheets may respond to ...
