New data on clouds and moisture, made possible by reanalysis of weather satellite observations, show that the atmosphere reacts to warm ocean pools in the Western Pacific Ocean with increased moisture and cloudiness~ suggesting a negative feedback limiting the rise in seasurface temperature. The reverse was observed over hot deserts where both moisture and cloudiness decrease, suggesting a posi...

The stable isotope ratios of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen have been measured for a German oak in wood samples of roughly three years each, for the years 1712-1954 A.D., and correlated with the existing weather records from England, Basel, and Geneva to evaluate the empirical temperature coefficients. Isotope ratios in a second official oak, measured for the years 1530-1800 A.D., show the cold t...

after prolonged periods of quiet upright posture (such as standing in a queue, standing in a shower, or even sitting for long periods), after being in a warm environment (such as in hot summer weather, a hot crowded room, a hot shower/ bath), immediately after exercise after emotionally stressful events after eating, when blood flow has shifted to the gut during the process of digestion.

A finite volume algorithm for the solution of the reaction–advection–diffusion equation on the sphere is derived and evaluated using analytical solutions. The proposed approach is based on the principle of semidiscretization. The convective and diffusive fluxes are approximated first, and then the resulting set of the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is solved using the appropriate time s...

Parasites typically have broader thermal limits than hosts, so large performance gaps between pathogens and their cold- and warm-adapted hosts should occur at relatively warm and cold temperatures, respectively. We tested this thermal mismatch hypothesis by quantifying the temperature-dependent susceptibility of cold- and warm-adapted amphibian species to the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium de...

Physical systems governed by advection-dominated partial differential equations (PDEs) are found in applications ranging from engineering design to weather forecasting. They known pose severe challenges both projection-based and non-intrusive reduced order modeling, especially when linear subspace approximations used. In this work, we develop an advection-aware (AA) autoencoder network that can...

Abstract This study identifies diverse synoptic weather patterns of warm-season heavy rainfall events (HREs) in South Korea. The HREs not directly connected to tropical cyclones (TCs) (81.1%) are typically associated with a midlatitude cyclone from eastern China, the expanded North Pacific high, and strong southwesterly moisture transport between. They frequent both first (early summer) second ...

Forecasting tropical cyclone (TC) intensification remains difficult despite research efforts to improve numerical weather prediction models. This study aims to examine Hurricane Earl’s rapid intensification in order to gain a better understanding of the observed and modeled intensification process. 113 dropwindsondes were analyzed before, during, and after RI in the eye, eyewall, and outer rain...
