Astronomical seeing and ground-layer turbulence in the Canadian High Arctic
, 2013 We report results of a two-year campaign of measurements, during arctic winter darkness, of optical turbulence in the atmospheric boundary-layer above the Polar Environment Atmospheric Laboratory in northern Ellesmere Island (latitude +80 deg N).

Global Urban‐Rural Differences in Precipitation: Cities See More Light Rain But Milder Extremes
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Ample evidence has shown that cities modulate regional hydrometeorology and hydroclimatology. Because different precipitation intensities have distinct hydrological and societal impacts, with light precipitation helping to alleviate urban heat and extreme precipitation often driving flood risks, it is important to understand whether and how ...

Numerical solutions of atmospheric flow over semielliptical simulated hills [PDF]
Atmospheric motion over obstacles on plane surfaces to compute simulated wind fields over terrain features was studied. Semielliptical, two dimensional geometry and numerical simulation of flow over rectangular geometries is also discussed.

Latent Heat Fluxes over Complex Terrain Measured by Airborne Water Vapour and Wind Lidars [PDF]
, 2010 The combination of a water vapour and a wind lidar on an aircraft is an interesting new tool that allows to measure latent heat flux profiles and to portray the small- to mesoscale variability beneath the aircraft trajectory with high accuracy and ...

On the Future of Extreme Rainfall in New Zealand
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Extreme rainfall is intensifying under climate change, but projected changes in the intensity, frequency, and spatial extent of extremes are not yet well constrained for smaller nations like New Zealand. Here, we use high‐resolution (∼12 km) dynamically downscaled CMIP6 climate simulations to examine future changes in annual maximum one‐day ...

Mantle Dynamic Topography of the Fringing Oceanic Basins of Antarctica
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Dynamic mantle processes are known to influence oceanic basins with implications for ocean circulation and climate. This study exploits an interdisciplinary approach to probe present‐day mantle and lithosphere beneath Antarctica's fringing oceanic basins to better understand sub‐crustal processes and implications for the continental realm.

Harbor‐Induced Tidal Salinity Dispersion in Partially Stratified Estuaries
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract The contribution of tidal trapping to salt dispersion has been well described for well‐mixed estuaries, in terms of barotropic filling and emptying of the traps. How traps contribute to salt dispersion in deeper, partially stratified systems remains underexplored.
