Deciphering key processes controlling rainfall isotopic variability during extreme tropical cyclones
Nature Communications, 2019 The Mesoamerican and Caribbean (MAC) region is characterized by tropical cyclones (TCs), strong El Niño-Southern Oscillation events, and climate variability that bring unique hazards to socio-ecological systems.

Heat and Cold Waves in Brazil: An ERA5‐Based Analysis of Trends and Seasonality (1980–2024)
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study uses ERA5 reanalysis data to assess changes in extreme heat and cold events across Brazil from 1980 to 2024. Results reveal a sharp increase in heatwave frequency and a general decline in coldwave occurrences, though regional variations are substantial.

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 ...

Seasonal Variability of Precipitating Systems in Four Radar Domains of Northeast Brazil
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study analyzes the climatology and evaluates how the physical aspects of precipitating systems are influenced by the dry and wet seasons in Northeast Brazil, highlighting seasonal variations in the frequency, size, intensity, and duration of these systems in the regions of Natal, Maceió, Petrolina, and Salvador.

Parameterization of energy cycles between the hemispheres
Science Progress, 2020 Seasonal variations in the temperatures of the hemispheres induce seasonal energy cycles between the hemispheres that drive tropical cyclones. Because the northern hemisphere has warmed more than the southern hemisphere, climate energy cycles develop ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Conifers growing in high‐elevation alpine environments in the mountains of Southern California, USA, are highly responsive to atmospheric river (AR) events, which typically produce heavy precipitation over 1–3 days. However, it is the frequency of the AR events, not their magnitude nor annual precipitation totals, that most affects the radial growth of
