Turbulent wind characteristics in typhoon Hagupit based on field measurements by Lixiao Li, Yiqing Xiao, Haijun Zhou, Feng Xing, Lili Song

“…The results show that drag coefficient increases with mean wind speeds at low levels and then decreases gradually at wind speed greater than 22.45 m/s in typhoon Hagupit over sea surface; turbulence intensities in front-side eyewall region are greater than those in back-side eyewall regions both in typhoons and hurricanes; the ratio between longitudinal integral scale and lateral integral scale, L u x : L v x , is scattered, but the ratio between longitudinal integral scale and vertical integral scale, L u x : L w x , is closer both in typhoons and hurricanes; the gust factor in typhoon Hagupit is 1.25 over open sea surface and 1.42 over open flat terrain; the peak factor is about 2.4.…”

Potential impacts of marine fuel regulations on an Arctic stratocumulus case and its radiative response by L. F. Escusa dos Santos, L. F. Escusa dos Santos, H. C. Frostenberg, A. Baró Pérez, A. M. L. Ekman, A. M. L. Ekman, L. Ickes, E. S. Thomson

“…<p>Increased surface warming over the Arctic triggered by increased greenhouse gas concentrations and feedback processes in the climate system has been causing a steady decline in sea-ice extent and thickness. With the retreating sea ice, shipping activity will likely increase in the future, driven by economic activity and the potential for realizing time and fuel savings from using shorter trade routes. …”

Tides of Time: The Dutch Delta Works as Time-Mediating Climate Adaptation Infrastructure by Huub Dijstelbloem, Victor Toom, Annick de Vries

“…By examining the development of the Dutch Delta Works, a set of infrastructures initiated after the 1953 North Sea floods that killed more than 1,800 people, the article reconceptualizes the development from the response to the 1953 disaster to its current relationship with the consequences of climate change, in particular rising sea levels, river water inflows and weather fluctuations such as increased rainfall. …”

The Interannual Relationship between the Diabatic Heating over the South Asia and the Snow Depth over the Southern Tibetan Plateau in Late Spring to Early Summer: Roles of the Air... by Chengyang Zhang, Zhihai Zheng, Yi Ou, Tuantuan Zhang, Zhixiang Xiao, Sheng Lai, Yuexing Cai, Sirong Chen, Weijian Qin, Hui He

“…During P1, the diabatic cooling from the southern Bay of Bengal eastward to the western South China Sea suppresses convection over the Bay of Bengal and southern TP and has resulted in an upper-level anomalous cyclone and cold temperature anomalies from the surface to 200 hPa over the southern TP, favoring the above-normal SD over the southern TP. …”

Attribution and Risk Projections of Hydrological Drought Over Water‐Scarce Central Asia by Xinfeng Wu, Wenhui Tang, Feng Chen, Shijie Wang, Zulfiyor Bakhtiyorov, Yuxin Liu, Yansong Guan

“…We project the future hydrological drought characteristics based on state‐of‐the‐art global hydrological simulations and found increasing duration and severity of hydrological droughts in CA, especially in the Amu Darya basin, and the Caspian Sea East Coast basin. These increasing droughts are exacerbated by higher anthropogenic emissions, posing high‐level risks to 39.01% of land area and 35.9% of human population under an extremely high emissions scenario. …”

Natural sampling and aliasing of marine geochemical signals by Andrew Curtis, Hugo Bloem, Rachel Wood, Fred Bowyer, Graham A. Shields, Ying Zhou, Mariana Yilales, Daniel Tetzlaff

“…We demonstrate that Nyquist’s theorem correctly predicts these biased signatures, proving that aliasing can be caused by cyclical and multiscale relative sea-level changes - a natural sampling effect. Our combined results show that deeper marine records are significantly more likely to provide unaliased environmental signatures. …”
