Modeling rainfall drop size distribution moments using an S‐band polarimetric radar in complex terrain

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Using S‐band dual‐polarization radar and disdrometers during PRECIP 2022 in Taiwan, we analyze a Mei‐Yu frontal event with widespread stratiform rain and embedded convection. Multiple disdrometers are used to create a novel drop size distribution model for S‐band radars resolving both the drizzle and precipitation modes. The model reveals both inferred

PRIMER REGISTRO DE NESSORHAMPHUS INGOLFIANUS (SCHMIDT, 1912) EN AGUAS CHILENAS (ANGUILLIFORMES: DERICHTHYIDAE) FIRST RECORD OF NESSORHAMPHUS INGOLFIANUS (SCHMIDT, 1912) IN CHILEAN WATERS (ANGUILLIFORMES: DERICHTHYIDAE)

Gayana, 2007
The finding of three specimens of Nessorhamphus ingolfianus (Schmidt 1912), obtained in front of Valdivia (39º 44'S; 70º 39'W) is reported. This proves to be the first record of this species for the Southeastern Pacific and for the Chilean ichthyofauna.

The physical and synoptic‐dynamical differences between warm days, hot days, and heatwaves during summer in Victoria, Australia

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
During the day, there is composite mean cold advection in the boundary layer on warm days (WDs), hot days (HDs) and heatwaves (HWs). There is weaker surface‐sensible heating on HDs and HWs. A nocturnal jet advects warm air on HDs and HWs. There is a strong and slow‐moving upper‐level anticyclone on HWs.

Westerly anomalies forced by off-equatorial warming prevent the La Niña formation in 2024

Environmental Research Communications
Of the five strong El Niño since 1980, only recent 2023/24 event failed to transition into La Niña, whose distinctive evolution poses a significant challenge to 2024 El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) prediction and is the core focus of this study.

Understanding the ability of the Southern Ocean to influence the southeastern tropical Pacific

The tropical Pacific plays a central role in the climate system and is linked to two major challenges in climate modeling: persistent biases in simulations and large inter-model spread in projections. Emerging studies show that the Southern Ocean has a remote influence on sea surface temperatures (SST) in the southeastern tropical Pacific through a ...
