Rapid intensification and the bimodal distribution of tropical cyclone intensity
Tropical cyclones rarely achieve high intensities gradually. Here, the authors show that rapid intensification is relevant not only to short-term weather forecasting, but also to the relationship between tropical cyclones and climate.

Dynamics and thermodynamics of the fast and slow Madden–Julian Oscillation
The results of this study highlight the MJO as a complex phenomenon, the behavior of which is driven by an interplay of thermodynamic and dynamic processes. The MJO's distinct speeds are controlled by different mechanisms: slow MJOs propagate eastward primarily via horizontal moisture advection, fast MJOs by vertical moisture advection.

Mediterranean tropical‐like cyclones show a clear seasonality, with September cyclones exhibiting the deepest convection and Ianos representing the most extreme case. While one or more dry intrusions are typically detected during the cyclone life cycle, Ianos instead features two much weaker descending airflows.

Asymmetry in the effect of North Atlantic sea surface temperature on the eddy‐driven jet
Projections of climate over Europe and the Atlantic are uncertain due to the uncertainty surrounding future changes in North Atlantic sea surface temperatures (SSTs). Here, we demonstrate that warming in the North Atlantic Ocean is linked to a transition to a negative phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation, as well as to an equatorward displacement of

Evolutionary patterns of drought‐flood abrupt alternation events in the Yangtze River Basin, China
Abstract In recent years, compound extreme events have occurred with increasing frequency worldwide. A specific type of compound extreme event, drought‐flood abrupt alternation (DFAA), has been reported repeatedly, especially in China. Previous studies have revealed that DFAA events mainly occur in south‐eastern China. As the third largest watershed in

Three‐Year Propagation Experiment at Ku‐, Ka‐, and Q‐Band in French West Indies
ABSTRACT From January 2021 to December 2023, the Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales (ONERA) and the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) conducted a three‐year Earth‐space propagation measurement campaign in Guadeloupe. The experiment used beacon receivers deployed in Pointe‐à‐Pitre airport to record signals at 11.2, 19.7, and
