The Southeast Asian deletion (--SEA) is the most commonly observed mutation among diverse α-thalassemia alleles in Southeast Asia and South China. It is generally argued that mutation --SEA, like other variants causing hemoglobin disorders, is associated with protection against malaria that is ende...

Further support for the CP El Nin˜o- Taiwan hydrological link comes from positive 850 hPa geopotential height anomalies in March–May in South Asia and the western Pacific during CP El Nin˜o events32 (Fig. 5). The associated large-scale anticyclonic flow during CP El Nin˜o extremes...
A recent increase in mid-latitude extreme weather events has been linked to Northern Hemisphere polar jet stream anomalies. To put recent trends in a historical perspective, long-term records of jet stream variability are needed. Here we combine two tree
