Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Using high‐resolution turbulence‐resolving simulations, we analyze the wind structure in the eyewall of Hurricane Laura (2020) and validate the results with observational data. Our findings show significant variations in wind speed and turbulence, especially above 50 m.

Spaceborne Radar Subsurface Imaging in Hyperarid Regions [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 1984 Imaging data acquired with the Shuttle Imaging Radar (SIR-A) over the hyperarid region of Egypt/Sudan clearly show surface penetration through the sand cover. Even though absorption does occur in the sand layer, surface refraction leads to a steeper incidence angle at the sand/bedrock interface resulting in a stronger backscatter.

Leveraging Sparse Autoencoders to Reveal Interpretable Features in Geophysical Models
Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Machine learning is an increasingly popular tool in the geosciences, offering new approaches to numerical weather prediction and complex data set analysis. However, as reliance on these techniques grows, pressing questions about model transparency, internal biases, and trust emerge.

Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar for Oceanography
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1982 The book originates from a symposium held at the Applied Physics Laboratory of the Johns Hopkins University in March 1980. The purpose of the symposium was to review the results to date of investigations related to the SEASAT SAR (synthetic aperture radar) experiment and, to quote from the book's foreword, ‘to explore the potential’ of such satellite ...

Do Tropical Cyclone Outer Size Forecasts Improve Simultaneously With Intensity Forecasts?
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.Abstract The outer size of a tropical cyclone (TC) is important for predicting potential damage caused by the storm, yet improving the size forecast remains challenging. This study evaluates the TC intensity and outer size forecast performance of five numerical models from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) based on 15 ...
