Capturing Aleatoric Uncertainty in Climate Models
ABSTRACT Internal climate variability arises from the climate system's inherently chaotic dynamics. Quantifying it is essential for climate science, as it enables risk‐based decision‐making and differentiates between externally forced change and internal fluctuations.

When a nuclear weapon is detonated in a region with sufficient fuel loading, the resulting firestorm can lift soot into the stratosphere, where it disperses globally over a few weeks. The soot, or black carbon, blocks sunlight, decreasing temperature and precipitation and depleting ozone.

Abstract The Taruntius crater, situated between Maria Fecunditatis, Crisium, and Tranquillitatis, is characterized by a prominent bright ray system and a floor‐fractured morphology and has long been interpreted as a relatively young Eratosthenian or Copernican crater.

Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

How Hazards Turn Into Disasters: Perspectives of Emergency Responders
ABSTRACT Natural hazards like floods, storms, or earthquakes turn into disasters if they hit vulnerable communities and societies. In policy and academia, this understanding has led to a surge of models and risk reduction policies that aim to reduce vulnerability and strengthen resilience.

Influence of Observational Temperature Data Sets on ECS and TCR Estimates
Abstract Uncertainties in estimates of Equilibrium Climate Sensitivity (ECS) and Transient Climate Response (TCR) are influenced by observational temperature data sets. Variability exists not just among the data products, but also within the creation of each one.

Abstract Low frequency sound can travel great distances in planetary atmospheres. When these waves reflect off the air/ground interface, energy may be absorbed or transferred to mechanical waves in the subsurface. This study describes the direct and reflected acoustic wave generated by the re‐entry of the OSIRIS‐REx Sample Return Capsule captured on a ...

Abstract Southern Hemisphere westerly winds are important drivers of Antarctic and sub‐Antarctic environmental change. Short observational wind records prevent us from fully understanding the scope of their variability. Proxy records provide valuable tools to extend environmental records. Here we present a novel wind study based on the use of windblown

Reversal of the ITCZ Shift During the Satellite Era
Abstract A southward shift of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) during the latter half of the 20th century has been primarily attributed to interhemispheric differences in anthropogenic aerosol forcing. However, in recent decades anthropogenic aerosol emissions have declined, particularly over Northern Hemisphere (NH).
