PERMIAN-TRIASSIC BOUNDARY AND EARLY TRIASSIC CONODONTS FROM THE SOUTHERN ALPS, ITALY

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2020
The Bellerophon (Late Permian) and Werfen (Lower Triassic) Formations were investigated on the basis of conodonts. Fifteen sections were sampled from Carnic Alps and Dolomites area in the Southern Alps. Ten were productive.

Intercomparison of a Regional Climate Model Ensemble for Selected European Catchments

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyzes a regional climate model ensemble for water cycle and water resource research with two models. Results show that ICON generally outperforms TSMP1 simulations, mainly with 2‐m temperature and precipitation. These findings serve as a baseline evaluation that shows how key structural differences influence the model skill.

Present-day surface deformation of the Alpine region inferred from geodetic techniques [PDF]

Earth System Science Data, 2018
We provide a present-day surface-kinematics model for the Alpine region and surroundings based on a high-level data analysis of about 300 geodetic stations continuously operating over more than 12 years.

ERA5 Can Overstate Changes in the Frequency of Extreme Heat: A New Zealand Case Study

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
ERA5 reproduces broad patterns of summer warming across New Zealand but underestimates temperature variability and warm‐tail extremes, biasing estimates of extreme heat risk. ABSTRACT Summertime temperature extremes exert profound impacts on human health, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet their characteristics and drivers remain poorly quantified in ...

Compound Meteorological and Hydrological Hot‐Dry and Hot‐Wet Extremes Over Global Land Areas: Spatiotemporal Changes, Attribution, and Drivers

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The changes in joint return period of compound meteorological hot‐dry (CMHHE) and hot‐wet (CMHWE) and compound hydrological hot‐dry (CHHDE) and hot‐wet (CHHWE) extremes were attributed to changes in associated univariate extremes and their dependence.

Spatio‐Temporal Patterns and Drivers of High‐Impact Precipitation Events in the European Alps (1961–2022)

Water Resources Research
High‐impact precipitation events (HIPEs) in mountainous regions are frequently associated with severe flooding, landslides, and significant impacts on infrastructure and human safety.

Added Value of CESM‐Driven WRF for Mean and Extreme Precipitation Over Complex Terrain in Southwest Asia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Southwest Asia remains understudied in high‐resolution regional climate modelling despite its climatic sensitivity and complex orography. We compare WRF (10 km), CESM (~2°), and ERA5 (0.25°) for 1950–2002, with supplementary validation against CHIRPS and PERSIANN‐CDR. WRF corrects the unrealistic summer precipitation overestimation of CESM and improves

Paleogeographic significance of Upper Triassic basinal succession of the Tamar Valley, northern Julian Alps (Slovenia)

Geologica Carpathica, 2015
The Julian Alps (western Slovenia) structurally belong to the eastern Southern Alps. The Upper Triassic succession mostly consists of shallow water platform carbonates of the Dolomia Principale-Dachstein Limestone system and a deep water succession of ...

Climate Change and Reduction of Soil Organic Layer Thickness Increases Drought Risk in Mountain Forests of the Northern Alps

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background On ca. 10% of the forested sites in the Bavarian Alps (Germany) mountain, forest soils (so‐called folic histosols) are characterized by thick organic layers overlying poorly weathered calcareous parent material. Aim These organic layers play a critical role in releasing water and nutrients for vegetation, yet they are also sensitive

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...
