Isotopic variability in tropical cyclone precipitation is controlled by Rayleigh distillation and cloud microphysics

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
Tropical cyclones produce exceptionally negative rainwater isotopic values that can serve as a proxy to reconstruct past large tropical cyclones, suggests high-resolution rainwater sampling during Hurricane Harvey in ...

Can climate models capture the structure of extratropical cyclones? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Composites of wind speeds, equivalent potential temperature, mean sea level pressure, vertical velocity, and relative humidity have been produced for the 100 most intense extratropical cyclones in the Northern Hemisphere winter for the 40-yr ECMWF Re ...

Strengthening urban resilience in China through underground infrastructures management: Addressing global climate challenges with technological solutions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper explores how climate‐resilient technologies, such as smart grids, digital twins, and self‐healing materials, can enhance urban resilience. It highlights the urgent need for proactive planning, public‐private collaboration, and data‐driven innovation to future‐proof underground infrastructure amid accelerating climate and urban pressures ...

Limited global intensification of weak tropical cyclones over the past 30 years

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Tropical cyclones can cause severe damage to coastal communities and the marine industry. However, trends in their intensity remain uncertain due to observational challenges, especially for the more frequent weak tropical cyclones, defined as tropical ...

Assessing Influential Factors on Inland Property Damage from Gulf of Mexico Tropical Cyclones in the United States

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021
The Gulf and southeast coastal communities in the United States are particularly vulnerable to tropical cyclones. Coastal areas generally receive the greatest economic losses from tropical cyclones; however, research suggests that losses in the inland ...

Tropical Cyclones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The term 'Cyclone' derived from a Greek word meaning the coil of a snake, is used for tropical revolving storms occurring in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. These storms are confined to definite regions of the earth and occur, for the most part,

Morphology of the tropopause layer and lower stratosphere above a tropical cyclone : a case study on cyclone Davina (1999) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
During the APE-THESEO mission in the Indian Ocean the Myasishchev Design Bureau stratospheric research aircraft M55 Geophysica performed a flight over and within the inner core region of tropical cyclone Davina. Measurements of total water, water vapour,

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Mapping the Spatial Scales of Australian Extreme Precipitation Using Daily Rain Gauges

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We present the first continent‐wide analysis of the spatial scales of daily extreme precipitation events (EPEs) in Australia using station observations and semivariogram analysis. EPEs generally have larger spatial scales at higher latitudes, with strong seasonal and regional differences shaped by topography, meteorological regimes, and climate ...

Investigating changes in global tropical cyclone storm frequency and intensity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Understanding fluctuations in tropical cyclone activity along United States shores and abroad becomes increasingly important as coastal managers and planners seek to save lives, mitigate damage, and plan for resilience in the face of changing storminess
