Environmental Characteristics Associated with the Tropical Transition of Mediterranean Cyclones

open access: yes
Various weather-induced natural hazards in the Mediterranean region like heavy rainfall, floods, or windstorms are associated with Mediterranean cyclones (Lionello et al., 2006; Flaounas et al., 2022).

Convective structure and its evolution in tropical cyclones as observed by passive microwave sensors in relation to intensity change

open access: yes, 2010
The use of passive microwave sensors in analysis of tropical cyclones provide unique insight into the microphysical attributes and system structure opposed to other instruments that are only able to detect information about the cloud top.

The  Tropical  Composite  Cyclones:  the   integrated  effect  of  hurricanes  on  the  ocean-­‐atmosphere  coupled  system

open access: yes, 2011
In recent years increasing interest has been put on the role that intense Tropical Cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons) can play in modulating the climate system. Here we present a new approach to highlight strong Tropical Cyclones (TCs) fingerprint on the

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the

How well can global ensemble forecasts predict tropical cyclones in the southwest Indian Ocean?

open access: yesMeteorological Applications
The southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO) recently experienced its most active, costliest and deadliest cyclone season on record (2018–2019). The anticipation and forecasting of natural hazards, such as tropical cyclones, are crucial to preparing for their ...

Artificial Intelligence‐Generated Synthetic Data in Healthcare: A False Promise for Underserved Populations?

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI)‐generated synthetic data has emerged as a promising solution to address the underrepresentation of underserved populations in medical AI systems. By artificially generating data that mimics real‐world patient information, proponents argue that AI‐generated synthetic data can fill data gaps, improve algorithmic ...

The physical health impacts of tropical cyclones

open access: yes, 2014
Tropical cyclones, also known as typhoons and hurricanes, are low-pressure weather systems characterised by extremely fast rotational winds. They disproportionately affect developing countries and have the potential to seriously disrupt basic societal ...
