  1. Kilometre-scale simulations improved extreme rainfall forecasts in eastern Qinghai
    Kilometre-scale convection-permitting simulations significantly improve extreme precipitation forecasting accuracy in Qinghai's eastern valleys by better representing valley circulation patterns.
  2. Weather regimes affect short-term satellite solar forecast error
    Study reveals how North Atlantic weather regimes significantly influence satellite-based solar forecast accuracy, with seasonal variations up to 20% in error magnitude affecting renewable energy.
  3. Global green wave shifts north and east more quickly
    Study reveals accelerated north-east shift in global green wave trajectory, indicating restructured vegetation phenology and hemispheric productivity changes through 21st century.
  4. Wind shear strengthens soil moisture effects on thunderstorm growth
    Wind shear and soil moisture interact to enhance rapid thunderstorm growth, offering new predictability for severe convective initiation across Africa and beyond.
  5. Climate explains mean storm activity more than individual storm features
    Machine learning reveals how seasonal climate and synoptic conditions differently control storm activity, with climate trends more strongly affecting storm heat anomalies than intensity.
  6. A robust minimization-based framework for cyclogeostrophic ocean surface current retrieval
    Minimization-based cyclogeostrophic inversion method for improved submesoscale ocean surface current retrieval from satellite SSH data, reducing geostrophic approximation errors.
  7. Arctic bioclimatic extremes have increased in many areas
    Seven-decade reanalysis reveals sharp increases and spatial shifts in Arctic bioclimatic extremes—droughts, winter warming and rain-on-snow—signaling novel stressors for cold ecosystems.
