Seasonal and Regional Differences in Extreme Rainfall Events and Their Contribution to the World’s Precipitation: GPM Observations by Shailendra Kumar, Yamina Silva, Aldo S. Moya-Álvarez, Daniel Martínez-Castro

“…On the regional and seasonal scale, South Asia (SAsia) and South America (SA) nearly show common features, as oceanic and land areas consist of largest and deepest EREs, respectively, and contribute to higher precipitation. Subtropical latitudes over South America, including Sierra de Cordoba and La Plata basin, consist of deepest and intense EREs and match with those of the Indo-Gangetic plain over South Asia, which also shows the similar characteristics. …”

Projected distribution patterns of Alpinia officinarum in China under future climate scenarios: insights from optimized Maxent and Biomod2 models by Yong Kang, Yong Kang, Fei Lin, Junmei Yin, Junmei Yin, Yongjie Han, Min Zhu, Yuhua Guo, Fenling Tang, Yamei Li

“…Under low emission scenarios (ssp126 and ssp245), the suitable habitat area increased and expanded towards higher latitudes. However, under high emission scenarios (ssp370 and ssp585), the suitable habitat area significantly decreased, with the species distribution range shrinking by approximately 3.7% and 19.8%, respectively. …”

Extreme Scale Height Variations and Nozzle Shocks in Warped Disks by Nicholas Kaaz, Yoram Lithwick, Matthew Liska, Alexander Tchekhovskoy

“…Sufficiently strong warps cause extreme compressions of the scale height, which fluid parcels “bounce” off of twice per orbit to high latitudes. We study the dynamics of strong warps using (i) the nearly analytic “ring theory” of Fairbairn & Ogilvie, which we generalize to the Kerr metric, and (ii) three-dimensional general-relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of tori (“rings”) around BHs, using the H-AMR code. …”

Seasonal Features and a Case Study of Tropopause Folds over the Tibetan Plateau by Jiali Luo, Wenjun Liang, Pingping Xu, Haiyang Xue, Min Zhang, Lin Shang, Hongying Tian

“…A medium fold event that occurred on 29 December 2018 is used to demonstrate the evolution of a tropopause fold case over the TP in winter; that is, the folding structure moves from west to east, the tropopause pressure is greater than 320 hPa over the folding region, while it is about 200 hPa in the surrounding areas, and the stratospheric air with high potential vorticity (PV) is transported from the high latitudes to the plateau by meridional winds. A trajectory model result verifies the transport pathway of the air parcels during the intrusion event.…”
