Global Hotspots of Stalling Extratropical Cyclones

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) are primary drivers of extreme weather in the mid‐to‐high latitudes. We introduce a new classification of particularly impactful events—“stalling” ETCs—defined by slow movement combined with intense precipitation. Using cyclone tracking data, we find that stalling ETCs cluster systematically along the east coasts ...

Near‐0°C Temperature Pathways From High‐Resolution Simulation in Current and Pseudo‐Global Warming Future Over Eastern Canada and United States

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Near‐0°C (−2°C to +2°C) air temperatures are critical for determining the phase of precipitation, the onset of freeze–thaw cycles, and associated impacts on the environment and infrastructure. Change is expected in a warming climate, yet large‐scale high‐resolution understanding of near‐0°C transitions remains limited, particularly under ...

Precipitation Microphysics Over the Headwaters of the Tarim River Basin: A Striking North‐South Contrast Revealed by a Decade of GPM/DPR Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The headwater regions of the Tarim River Basin (TRB), Asia's vital “water towers,” are critical for the ecological stability of arid Northwest China, yet a systematic understanding of their diverse precipitation microphysics remains elusive.

Multi‐Step Gravity Wave Propagation From a Tropospheric Vortex to the Ionosphere Near the Tibetan Plateau

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The atmosphere and ionosphere form a vertically coupled system in which disturbances in the lower atmosphere can modulate ionospheric variability. Using reanalysis data, ground‐based GNSS observations, and COSMIC‐2 profiles, we investigate gravity waves (GWs) generation and upward coupling during a southwest vortex (SWV) event over the Tibetan

Three Generations of NARCliM: Evaluation of Precipitation, Temperature and Their Extremes Over the CORDEX Australasia Domain

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
The NSW and Australian Regional Climate Modelling Version 2.0 (NARCliM2.0) builds on NARCliM1.0 and 1.5 to deliver improved regional climate simulations. This study provides the first comprehensive evaluation of NARCliM2.0 against its predecessors, assessing individual model skill in reproducing mean and extreme climate.

Exploring the Explainability of a Machine Learning Tool to Improve Severe Thunderstorm Wind Reports

Atmosphere
Output from a machine learning tool that assigns a probability that a severe thunderstorm wind report was caused by severe intensity wind was evaluated to understand counterintuitive cases where reports that had a high (low) wind speed received a low ...

Characteristics and Trends in Short‐Duration Heavy Rain in Wet‐Season in Hong Kong

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 7, 15 June 2026.
This study examines the characteristics of heavy rain events (hourly rainfall ≥ 30 mm) in Hong Kong from 2000 to 2024. A statistically significant increasing trend in short‐duration (1–3 h) heavy rain events (3.4 events per decade) in the wet season is observed, primarily due to other mechanisms rather than surface troughs or tropical cyclones. Notably,

The nonlinear effects in the ionospheric plasma generated by strong thunderstorms seen by DEMETER satellite

Archives of Mechanics
The terrestrial ionosphere is mainly a plasma region which is very sensitive to different disturbances. A wide range of plasma instabilities can develop in this region, which are often nonlinear processes and leading to the development of plasma ...

The Multiscale Non‐Gaussian Statistics of Free‐Running 1000‐Member General Circulation Model Ensembles

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study investigates the multiscale evolution of forecast distributions using 1000‐member global circulation model ensembles. Initially different distributions converge to the same time‐varying equilibrium distribution, and the equilibration time scale noticeably exceeds the variance saturation time. Prior to equilibration, the forecast distribution

Professional Engagement With Climate Change Among Five Communities of Practice in Virginia, USA: An Exploratory Study

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
Municipalities across the United States and the world face profound climate adaptation and mitigation challenges. To assess current engagement and future potential of various professional communities to communicate about and contribute to such efforts, we conducted 56 in‐depth interviews in Virginia with members of five communities of practice (elected
