Another property of the real world, missing in our model so far, is that the real world is not everywhere the same temperature, and the heat fluxes to and from space do not necessarily balance at any given time or location. This is because the winds in the atmosphere and the currents in...
However, in the northern Sahel, MCSs form within and behind the trough, in the region of maximum convergence of moisture from southerly monsoon winds. Amazon squall lines have added forcing from the sea breeze front. Tropical squall line development is aided by strong low-level wind shear. For...
In addition, changes in these water properties could result from a number of climatic forcings, including changes in solar insolation, thermohaline circulation, and surface winds. Today, warm and relatively fresh surface waters are transported from the equatorial Atlantic to the NE North Atlantic ...
Extreme weather events lead to significant adverse societal costs. Extreme Event Attribution (EEA), a methodology that examines how anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions had changed the occurrence of specific extreme weather events, allows us to quantif
The equation is valid with a deep-water assumption, which might not be true for our definition of coastal zone, particularly for swells Given that statistics are based on reanalysis data on a 0.5∘ × 0. 5∘ grid, we are assuming that the wave period remains constant when appro...
Sailing theIonian Seais an enchanting way to experience Greece's breathtaking islands and pristine waters. Known for its favorable winds, calm seas and stunning landscapes, the Ionian Sea offers a paradise for both experienced sailors and those looking to explore for the first time. From lively ...
We analyze the role of thermospheric winds on the variability of ionospheric plasma density irregularities for solar maximum periods using ionospheric plasma density profiles from the three Swarm satellites and zonal wind data from the Horizontal Wind Model 14 (HWM14). The results show that the plasm...
Flash droughts are primarily driven by a deficit in precipitation, but evolve rapidly in combination with other environmental anomalies, such as high temperatures, strong winds, or abundant radiation contributing to enhanced evaporative demand3,4,5,6,7. Flash droughts are therefore considered to be ...
