Atmospheric rivers do not explain UK summer extreme rainfall

How Do Atmospheric Rivers Form?

Investigation of the atmospheric circulation anomalies associated with extreme rainfall events over the Coastal West Africa

This study investigates the atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events over the coastal West Africa. The rainfall data of this study were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), spanning from 1981 to 2010. The atmospheric datasets were also obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study employed the Z-Index to categorize dry and wet years into...

Investigation of the Relation between South and Southwest Iran's Heavy Rainfall with Atmospheric Rivers (ARs).

In this study, we tried to identify the sources of moisture and its direction of heavy rainfall in south and southwest of Iran by using a new algorithm based on atmospheric rivers. For this purpose, daily rainfall of 17 synoptic stations in the period 1986 to 2015 in south and southwestern Iran that have a common time span and fully cover the study area is used.Also from the data set of the Nat...

Do the Superkamiokande Atmospheric Neutrino Results Explain Electric Charge Quantisation?

We show that the SuperKamiokande atmospheric neutrino results explain electric charge quantisation, provided that the oscillation mode is ν µ → ν τ and that the neutrino mass is of the Majorana type.

Analysis of Extreme Summer Rainfall Using Climate Teleconnections and Typhoon Characteristics in South Korea

It is now widely acknowledged that climate variability modulates the frequency of extreme hydrological events. Traditional methodologies for hydrologic frequency analysis are not devised to account for variation in the exogenous teleconnections. Flood frequency analysis is further plagued by the assumptions of stationary in the causal structure as well as ergodicity. Here, we propose a dynamica...
