Mechanism driving stronger tropical cyclones in cooler autumn than the hottest summer

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Warmer sea surface temperatures (SSTs) increase evaporation, convection, and latent heat release in the atmosphere, which favors tropical cyclone (TC) intensification and ultimately leads to stronger storms.

Spatiotemporal Evolution of Regional Heavy Rainfall Events in Guangdong, South China: Intensification and Expansion Since the Early 1990s

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Regional heavy rainfall events (RHREs) in Guangdong, South China, during 1961–2025 are reassessed using an improved strength index that integrates rainfall intensity, spatial extent and duration. Results reveal a post‐1991 shift towards more frequent and spatially extensive strong and extreme events, with June showing the most pronounced ...

Recurving tropical cyclones in the western North Pacific are stronger than non‐recurving ones: Causes and implications

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study investigates the statistical characteristics of recurving tropical cyclones (TCs) over the western North Pacific (WNP). We find that recurving TCs are, on average, 38% stronger than non‐recurving TCs, owing to longer ocean exposure, fewer landfalls, and passage through warmer, more favorable thermal environments.

Analyzing coherent structures in the tropical cyclone boundary layer using large eddy simulations

open access: yesTropical Cyclone Research and Review
Turbulence within the tropical cyclone boundary layer plays a crucial role in the exchange of heat, moisture, and momentum between the surface and the atmosphere.

Why does typhoon Noru (2022) possess severe rapid intensification as explored by the extended Sawyer–Eliassen equation?

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
As inferred from the Sawyer–Eliassen analyses, the intense diabatic heating located slightly inside the radius of maximum tangential wind (RMW) associated with a compact eyewall is mainly responsible for the severe RI of Noru, in contrast to typhoon Goni (2020) at a slower spinup despite similar RMW, due to the weaker diabatic heating. The severe RI of

Radioecological assessment of the marine environment in the area of the sinking of the nuclear submarine K-159 based on the results of the scientific research expedition in 2023

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety
The K-159 nuclear submarine that sank in 2003 in the Barents Sea near Kildin Island is a potential source of radiation hazard. In 2023, Research and Production Association «Typhoon» organized an expedition to study the radiation situation and conduct a ...

Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

Overcoming Barriers and Solutions for Catalysing Private Capital in Climate Adaptation: A Stakeholder‐Informed Agenda for Hong Kong's Intermediary Role in Southeast Asia

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates stakeholder perspectives on mobilising private‐sector finance for climate adaptation in Southeast Asia, emphasising Hong Kong's role as a financial intermediary. Through semi‐structured interviews with diverse stakeholders, including practitioners, policymakers, insurers, and project developers, we employed a grounded ...

Simulation of Storm Surge and Wave Due to Typhoon Isewan (5915)

open access: yes, 2015
An integrally coupled wave-tide-surge model was developed and then applied to the simulation of the wave-typhoonsurge for the typhoon Isewan (typhoon Vera (5915)), which is the strongest typhoon that has struck Japan and causedincalculable damage.

Tourism as a Catalyst for Blue Carbon Restoration and Conservation: Pathways, Gaps, and Opportunities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tourism is a major driver of coastal economies worldwide, yet it is also a growing source of pressure on blue carbon ecosystems (BCEs) such as mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes. Nowadays, tourism‐led conservation/restoration is increasingly promoted under the banner of regenerative tourism, but how these projects are motivated ...
