Mitigating hail overforecasting in the two-moment Milbrandt–Yau microphysics scheme (v2.25.2_beta_04) in WRF (v4.5.1) by incorporating the graupel spongy wet growth process (MY2_GSWG v1.0) [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
Hail forecasting using numerical models remains a challenge due to the uncertainties and deficiencies in microphysics schemes. In this study, we assessed the hail simulation performance of the two-moment Milbrandt–Yau (MY2) microphysics scheme within the

Theories on the impact of weather on consumer spending and retail sales

Tržište, 2013
Weather affects four basic purchasing decisions: what, when, where and in what quantity to buy. Even though retail is not traditionally perceived to be a weather sensitive sector, results of studies show that weather has a significant impact on store ...

Increasing Weather Risk

, 2011
It is an undisputed fact that weather risk increases over time due to climate change. However, qualification of this statement with regard to the type of weather risk and geographical location is needed. We investigate the application of novel statistical tools for assessing changes in weather risk over time.

Mechanoluminescent HOF Nanotransducers Enabled Sono‐Optogenetics in Parkinsonian Rats

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a mechanoluminescent system utilizing porous hydrogen‐bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) as a toolkit for focused ultrasound‐triggered, non‐invasive light delivery to the deep brain in rats. This approach enables the specific activation of PV‐GPe neurons in dopamine‐depleted Parkinson's disease rat models, resulting in a comparable alleviation

Pull‐and‐Push Nanotherapeutic Hydrogels: Scavenging Inflammatory Triggers While Driving Tissue Regeneration in Burn Wounds

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A nanounit‐assembled hydrogel employing a “pull‐and‐push” strategy simultaneously scavenges pro‐inflammatory cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and delivers regenerative therapeutics in response to burn‐induced hyperthermia. By repolarizing macrophages and promoting angiogenesis, this multifunctional platform accelerates burn wound healing, offering a blueprint for

Spatial–temporal variations of b-values prior to medium-to-large earthquakes in Taiwan and the feasibility of real-time precursor monitoring

Earth, Planets and Space
This study explores the b-value variations prior to M ≥ 6.0 earthquakes in Taiwan, examining their potential as earthquake precursors. Focusing on the 2018 Hualien earthquake and others between 1999 and 2021, we found that many large earthquakes occurred
