It is clear and accurate structured information and developed...

HYPOTHESIS As opposed to the traditional dictated report, the use of a computer-based synoptic operative report will mandate that the surgical resident have a better understanding of all facets of the procedure. DESIGN A prospective study over a 10-month period. SETTING A 636-bed community teaching hospital. PATIENTS A total of 57 consecutive patients and 60 operative procedures for breas...

[1] A dynamical downscaling of the 6-hourly 1948–2006 NCEP/NCAR re-analyses for the subarctic region of the North Atlantic has been used to derive a climatology of polar lows by means of a tracking algorithm based on the simulated bandpass filtered MSLP-fields. This climatology is consistent with the limited observational evidence in terms of frequency and spatial distribution. The climatology ...

Abstract This study examined the characteristics of diurnal variations heavy rainfall (⩾110 mm in 12 hours) Korea and related atmospheric circulation for July from 1980–2020. During analysis period, two dominant pattens variation emerged: all-day (AD) morning only (MO) types. For AD-type, is caused by abundant moisture content conjunction with active convection (0000–1200, LST; LST = UTC + 9) a...

The Congo Basin is one of three key convective regions on the planet which, during the transition seasons, dominates global tropical rainfall. There is little agreement as to the distribution and quantity of rainfall across the basin with datasets differing by an order of magnitude in some seasons. The location of maximum rainfall is in the far eastern sector of the basin in some datasets but t...

This paper discusses the extent to which the science of urban climatology has informed local climate change strategies in four city case studies – Stuttgart, Tokyo, New York City, and Manchester. The paper draws on historical and contemporary policy documents along with 60 interviews with practitioners, city officials, politicians, and academics in order to understand the use or non-use of urba...

The wind/wave climatology for the Arctic Seas will be developed based on altimeter observations. It will have a major scientific and applied significance as presently there is no reference climatology for this region of the ocean available. The new versions of wave models for the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas will include new physics that is already under development, and the novel physics presentl...
