Cloud radiative effect dominates variabilities of surface energy budget in the dark Arctic by Cheng Tao, Minghua Zhang, Shaocheng Xie

“…Owing to the small amount of water vapor in the winter Arctic, infrared radiation from clouds transmits more easily to the surface in the Arctic than at other latitudes, resulting in large cloud radiative effect at the surface. …”

Analysis of Seasonal Variation Characteristics of Circulation in Pearl River Estuary by HUANG Chunhua, LIU Xiaojian, GUO Huiqun, HOU Peng, CHEN Wei

“…Estuarine circulation controls the regional dynamic pattern,which affects the salinity,suspended sediment,and nutrient salt transport in the estuary.Based on the ocean assimilation data HYCOM,this study analyzed the seasonal variation characteristics and evolution rules of the circulation in the Pearl River Estuary and constructed the annual circulation path in the Pearl River Estuary.The results show that:①The current in the Pearl River Estuary and its adjacent waters shows obvious seasonal variation,with a change period of about one year,and as the current gets closer to the open sea,the change period is more obvious;②the open sea of the Pearl River Estuary is controlled by the circulation all the year round,which shows southwest coastal current in winter and turns to northeast upwelling current in summer due to the influence of the South China Sea warm current,of which the former accounting for about 66.5% is more than the latter accounting for about 33.5%;③the current in the Pearl River Estuary is a southwest-northeast reciprocating flow in summer and a counterclockwise circulation in winter.…”

Perspectives rituelles dans les Plaines et sur la Côte Nord-Ouest by Klaus Hamberger

“…We shall endeavor to show that the architecture of the « Sun Dance » and the « Winter Ceremonial » not only served to create a virtual space centered on the polarity between the positions of predator (above) and prey (below), but also to invert these positions by a transformation of perspectives. …”

Risk factors and treatment approaches to seasonal affective disorder: a review by V. Jurgaitytė, N. Khawaja, J. Dijokas, P. Rimkevičiūtė

“… Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression which emerges seasonally, in winter or summer. This condition affects 1-2% of the general population; however, in regions more than 30 degrees of the equator, a higher proportion (10-20%) of people suffer from SAD. …”

Solar Cycle Variations of GPS Amplitude Scintillation for the Polar Region by K. Meziane, A. Kashcheyev, S. Patra, P. T. Jayachandran, A. M. Hamza

“…The occurrence of amplitude scintillation is predominantly confined to the 10–18 magnetic local time (MLT) and 72–87° Altitude‐Adjusted Corrected Geomagnetic (AACGM) sector and is a winter and equinoctial phenomenon. The occurrence of amplitude scintillation shows a clear seasonal and solar cycle dependence with a maximum value of ∼11% during the high solar activity early winter periods, and a secondary maximum in equinoctial months, and almost no occurrence during summer months. …”

Frequency anomalies and characteristics of extratropical cyclones during extremely wet, dry, windy, and calm seasons in the extratropics by H. Binder, H. Wernli

“…Windy seasons are often associated with anomalously few but particularly intense cyclones, especially during winter. Positive anomalies in both cyclone frequency and intensity are found in the southern North Atlantic during winter, which suggests that windy winters in this region occur during southward shifts in the position of the main storm track. …”

Trends in Air Pollutant Concentrations and the Impact of Meteorology in Shandong Province, Coastal China, during 2013–2019 by Na Zhao, Gang Wang, Guohao Li, Jianlei Lang

“…However, seasonal meteorological factors, which favored diffusion during summer and winter but accumulation during spring and autumn, played a larger role in the short term for all six species, especially during winter, when they reduced concentrations (excluding those of SO2 in 2019 and O3 altogether) by 6.5–31.0%.…”

Les conceptions victoriennes des féminités doubles, des doublets féminins pour ainsi dire, sont perpétuées et réactualisées à travers les textualités néo-victoriennes. …”
