Environmental characteristics associated with the development of deep warm core Mediterranean Cyclones [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
Cyclonic perturbations in the Mediterranean region sometimes acquire characteristics typical of tropical cyclones, such as a deep inner warm core. In these cases, they become very intense structures that can cause large precipitations and significant ...

Local environmental conditions related to seasonal tropical cyclone activity in the Northeast Pacific basin

, 2000
Tropical cyclone formation in the NE Pacific Ocean is poorly understood. We show that by dividing the NE Pacific Ocean into two regions, east and west of 116 degreesW, our understanding is enhanced in terms of which climatological factors are involved ...

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

Communications 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 ...

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

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

Communications 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 ...

Radical Listening as a Governance Innovation: Integrating Planetary Health and Community‐Led Forest Conservation in Indonesia

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While REDD+ prioritizes carbon sequestration, its narrow focus often overlooks forest‐health linkages critical to community well‐being. This paper examines the holistic model of Health in Harmony (HIH) and Alam Sehat Lestari (ASRI), which integrates forest conservation with healthcare through radical listening—a decolonial community engagement

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

ISPRS 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 ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...
