Thunderstorms increase mercury wet deposition
Mercury (Hg) wet deposition, transfer from the atmosphere to Earth’s surface by precipitation, in the United States is highest in locations and seasons with frequent deep convective thunderstorms, but it has never been demonstrated whether the connection

Climatology and Trends of Sub‐Daily Precipitation Extremes in Croatia
Sub‐daily extreme precipitation indices reveal pronounced spatial variability, with the highest intensities and frequencies across the Adriatic region and the highlands. Seasonal and diurnal patterns highlight distinct regional behaviour, including summer maxima over the continental interior and nocturnal or early‐morning peaks along the Adriatic coast.

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

Thunderstorm occurrence at ten sites across Great Britain over 1884–1993
The UK Met Office's Daily Weather Reports (DWR) contain extensive logs of UK thunderstorm activity. To date, only a very small fraction of these data have been digitized as part of the MIDAS dataset, and exclusively after 1950. Using the recently‐scanned

Uncertainty of SYNOP Cloud Classifications by Human Observers
Operational cloud classification is subjective to some extent and should not be used without quality control for example, to train automatized methods. Inter‐observer agreement depends on the sky conditions, the nature of the observation (image‐based or on‐site), the framework under which it is conducted (sky snippets for gold standard atlases vs ...
