Simulated Effects of Cropland Expansion on Summer Climate in Eastern China in the Last Three Centuries by Quansheng Ge, Jingyun Zheng, Xuezhen Zhang, Fanneng He

“…Conversely, in the middle to lower reaches of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, the grid-scale rainfall decreased because the climatological northward wind, which is moist and warm, was partially offset by a southward wind anomaly. These findings suggest that the agricultural development left footprints not only on the present climate but also on the historical climate changes before the industrial revolution.…”

Climatic Background and Prediction of Boreal Winter PM2.5 Concentrations in Hubei Province, China by Yuanyue Huang, Zijun Tang, Zhengxuan Yuan, Qianqian Zhang

“…For the atmospheric pattern anomalies over Hubei Province, the North Atlantic SST mode (NA) promotes the southward intrusion of northerlies, while the Northwest Pacific (NWP) and South Pacific (SPC) SST modes enhance wet deposition through increased precipitation, showing a negative correlation with DJF-HBPMC. …”

Chemical and Noble Gas Isotope Compositions of Formation Gases from a 3 km Deep Scientific Borehole in the Koyna Seismogenic Zone, Western India by Nagaraju Podugu, Satrughna Mishra, Thomas Wiersberg, Sukanta Roy

“…The helium concentrations are consistent with those previously observed over the surface fissures near Kadoli, suggesting a southward extension of the Donichawadi fault zone up to the KFD1 site and confirming that the fault zone is permeable even after 50 years of the 1967 Koyna earthquake. 3He/4He ratios of eleven gas samples fall between 0.426±0.022 and 0.912±0.059 Ra, with 4He/20Ne values between 0.3449±0.0091 and 0.751±0.020. …”

Impact of the Westerly Jet on Rainfall/Runoff in the Source Region of the Yangtze River during the Flood Season by Xin Lai, Yuanfa Gong, Sixian Cen, Hui Tian, Heng Zhang

“…When the intensity of the WJ over the key region is greater (less) than normal, the jet position moves northward (southward), and the easterly (westerly) wind anomalies over the region to the west of the SRYR become unfavorable (favorable) to the transport of water vapor from high-latitude regions to the SRYR. …”

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

“…The jet migrates back to the south in autumn and is located along about 30°N in winter, and the region where folds occur most frequently also shifts southward correspondingly. 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. …”
