Abstract Asian precipitation changes over multiple time scales have been extensively studied, yet the relative roles of external forcing and internal variability in shaping the large‐scale Asian precipitation pattern over the past millennium remain underexplored. Here, we demonstrate that the tripolar pattern of decadal precipitation variability across

California Temperature Since 1520 CE Shows Interactions in Extremes of Heat, Drought, and Fire
Abstract Summer maximum temperatures (Tmax ${T}_{\text{max}}$) in the Sierra Nevada have risen rapidly since the turn of the 20th century, especially above 1,500 m where trends in the south exceed 3°C century−1. To place this warming into context, we developed a 504‐year reconstruction of growing‐season (April–September) Tmax ${T}_{\text{max}}$ (1520 ...

Global Warming Has Accelerated Significantly
Abstract Recent record‐hot years have caused discussion over whether global warming has accelerated. Previous analysis found acceleration (i.e., increase in warming rate) has not yet reached a 95% confidence level, given natural temperature variability. We remove the estimated influence of three main natural variability factors: El Niño, volcanism, and

A 500‐kyr Pluvial Interval Triggered Lacustrine Carbon Burial in Late Cretaceous East Asia
Abstract The early Late Cretaceous hothouse was featured by intense storms and a prevailing monsoon climate, yet direct evidence for regional extreme precipitation events is rare. Here, we reconstruct local weathering and hydrological processes using magnesium and strontium isotopes (δ26Mg and 87Sr/86Sr) from lacustrine dolostones in the Upper ...

Abstract On 3 August 2021, a flotilla of four Heliotrope solar hot air balloons was launched from central New Mexico (USA). The balloons, equipped with microbarometers, flew from sunrise to sunset at altitudes between 17 and 22 km. During the flight, eight chemical explosions ranging from 45 to 136 kg TNT equivalent and a thunderstorm occurred in the ...

Volcanic Ash Affected by Lightning During the Hunga 2022 Eruption
Abstract The 15 January 2022 eruption of Hunga volcano (Kingdom of Tonga) produced the most lightning ever documented during an explosive eruption to date. This study estimates the mass of erupted tephra that may be structurally or electromagnetically affected by the lightning, based upon lightning peak current, channel length, and ash plume particle ...

Abstract As global circulation models (GCMs) have increased in spatial resolution, more realistic tropical cyclones (TCs) and TC distributions have been simulated. Whereas prior research on TC climatologies has relied on proxies like Potential Intensity and synthetic storm models, the cyclones simulated by newer TC‐resolving GCMs can now be analyzed ...

Abstract In situ measurements of stratospheric aerosol are the only measurements that provide sufficient detail to determine aerosol number, size, surface area, volume/mass, and effective radius; however, these measurements are limited in space and time.

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications
Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...
