Observation of an energetic radiation burst from mountain-top thunderclouds

, 2009
During thunderstorms on 2008 September 20, a simultaneous detection of gamma rays and electrons was made at a mountain observatory in Japan located 2770 m above sea level. Both emissions, lasting 90 seconds, were associated with thunderclouds rather than

Influence of Weather Fronts on Design Storm Profiles: Applied Event Partitioning and Comparative Analysis

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Current practices in hydrologic design are based on the exceedance probability of rainfall intensities, without considering the meteorological conditions that generate them. Atmospheric drivers, such as weather fronts, control the spatiotemporal characteristics of storm events, with implications for urban stormwater infrastructure design and ...

Using ngTALEN to improve genome editing efficiency on targets containing 5‐methylcytosines

The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
SUMMARY We recently discovered distinct methylation patterns between the mitochondrial genome and the nuclear‐encoded mitochondrial DNA sequences (NUMTs), with the mitochondrial genome being hypomethylated and NUMTs being hypermethylated. Given that genome editing using mitochondrial targeted transcription activator‐like effector nucleases (TALEN) is ...

Hiss Wave Evolution During Substorms Based on Van Allen Probes Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Hiss waves frequently occur in the plasmasphere or plumes, playing a key role in energetic electron loss in the Earth's inner magnetosphere. While previous studies have linked hiss wave enhancements in the outer plasmasphere (just inside the plasmapause) to electron injections during substorms, their evolution across various substorm phases ...

Characterization and Localization of Chemical Explosions and Lightning Flashes by a Flotilla of Stratospheric Balloons

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract On 3 August 2021, a flotilla of four Heliotrope solar hot air balloons was launched from central New Mexico (USA). The balloons, equipped with microbarometers, flew from sunrise to sunset at altitudes between 17 and 22 km. During the flight, eight chemical explosions ranging from 45 to 136 kg TNT equivalent and a thunderstorm occurred in the ...

First results from the TUS orbital detector in the extensive air shower mode

, 2017
TUS (Tracking Ultraviolet Set-up), the first orbital detector of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECRs), those with energies above 50 EeV, was launched into orbit on April 28, 2016, as a part of the Lomonosov satellite scientific payload. The main aim of the
