Timing of Thunderstorm Occurrence for Cape Canaveral, Florida

open access: yes, 2000
This research is concerned with improving an existing algorithm to accurately forecast thunderstorm starting times for Cape Canaveral, Florida. This was accomplished by investigating different linear regression techniques than those used in the existing ...

A Convolutional Neural Network‐Based Model for Precipitation Nowcasting Leveraging Data From Gauge Stations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Rainfall nowcasting, the short‐term prediction of precipitation, is a vital component of early warning systems aimed at mitigating the effects of extreme weather events. In this study, we develop a deep learning approach based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for rainfall nowcasting and train it exclusively on data from rain gauge ...

WACCM‐RR: A Regionally‐Refined Version of the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We introduce the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with Regional Refinement (WACCM‐RR) and study the impact of directly resolving gravity waves (GWs) in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT; 70–140 km). Two simulations of 2010 are compared: “Non‐RR” is a standard WACCM case with a horizontal resolution of ∼1° (111 km) globally ...

"Thunderstorm distribution and frequency in Saudi Arabia" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A new average annual thunder day map for Saudi Arabia is presented. Based on this map, the distribution of thunderstorms over Saudi Arabia is analysed in terms of the factors related to the lightning performance of transmission lines such as thunderstorm

Unsupervised Deep Representation Learning for Infrasound Phase Identification

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Infrasound phase identification is challenging because atmospheric variability strongly influences signal propagation on short timescales that are not resolved by standard atmospheric models. While traditional approaches rely on propagation modeling and array‐derived parameters, recent work suggests that waveform structure itself encodes ...

Plasma Activated Water (PAW) in Organic Cultivation: An Experimental Study on Soil Properties and Plant Responses

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
This study demonstrates that PAW enhances microbial activity and nutrient cycling in organically managed soils, highlighting its potential for organic agricultural practices. ABSTRACT Plasma‐activated water (PAW), known for containing reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), is used to improve different agronomic traits in crops.

Role of Local Medium to Large Mammalian Species in Seed Dispersal of Fleshy‐Fruited Invasive Alien Plants in the Montane Grassland Biome of South Africa

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 4, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fleshy‐fruited invasive alien shrubs are an increasing problem in the grasslands of South Africa, where they alter vegetation and threaten biodiversity. They are predominantly bird‐dispersed in forest systems, but their spread in grassland ecosystems remains understudied, including their dispersal by mammals.

From Forecast to Action: Using Flood Impact Storylines to Optimize Mobile Levee Deployment and Emergency Response Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Preparing for unprecedented natural hazard events is challenging because the lack of records and experience makes it impossible to know how such events will unfold. Repeated record‐breaking floods in central Europe have increased awareness of the need for proactive planning beyond observed extremes.

Virtual Reality Tornadic Thunderstorm Activity

open access: yes
This virtual reality activity allows students to navigate through a tornadic thunderstorm. The activity is a visually-realistic three-dimensional view of a supercell thunderstorm containing a tornado during the mature, steady-state phase of its life ...
