Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique. Releasing sterile Drosophila suzukii males or males and females in cages led to the same degree of induced sterility in wild females.

The Synoptic Problem: A Way Through the Maze [PDF]

Possibly the greatest literary enigma in history, the Synoptic Problem has fascinated generations of scholars who have puzzled over the agreements, the disagreements, the variations and the peculiarities of the relationship between the first three of our

Data Driven Discovery in Astrophysics [PDF]

, 2014
We review some aspects of the current state of data-intensive astronomy, its methods, and some outstanding data analysis challenges. Astronomy is at the forefront of "big data" science, with exponentially growing data volumes and data rates, and an ever ...

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.

Possibilities and problems of solar magnetic field observations for space weather forecast

Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2017
An essential part of the space weather problem, important in the last decades, is the forecast of near-Earth space parameters, ionospheric and geomagnetic conditions on the basis of observations of various phenomena on the Sun.

A case study of temperature tendency mechanisms operating over northern Africa during and following midlatitude winter troughs

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
An Iberia‐Central Mediterranean trough sequence (7–10 February 2018) delivers anomalous low‐level temperature tendencies attributable to dynamics across most of northern Africa, with warming over northeastern Africa, especially 10–12 February into the eastern Sahel. An ECMWF product attributes the tendencies (see Figure).

Physically consistent mesoscale model evaluation in complex terrain

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel approach for evaluating mesoscale atmospheric models in complex terrain by selecting physically consistent grid points and applying height‐based corrections. The method corrects for sensor height and terrain elevation differences between model and observations using a time‐varying lapse rate.

Impact of small‐scale gravity waves on tracer transport

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We extend a gravity wave (GW) parametrization to calculate the tracer transport due to the GW–Stokes drift and next‐order effects, where the approach is validated by comparing coarse‐resolution simulations with parametrized GWs to high‐resolution, wave‐resolving reference simulations.

All‐sky assimilation impacts of the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder constellation on global weather forecasts

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Key Findings: An assimilation methodology is established for the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder (TMS) flying on CubeSats in sun‐synchronous and inclined orbits, and in all cloud scenes. The TMS has a significant impact on weather forecast lead times up to 3 days in the Tropics in a research‐quality numerical weather prediction setting, and yields water ...
