Atmospheric rivers are important atmospheric features implicated in the global water vapor budget, cloud distribution, and associated precipitation. The ARiD (Atmospheric River Detector) code has been developed to automatically detect from flux applied ECMWF ERA5 archive over period 1980–2020 above Atlantic Ocean Europe. A case study of an river formed East on August 2014 that reached France de...

Consistent relative stacking interaction energies have been calculated for triply ionised dinucleotide structures in the g-gconformation. For UpAp, ApUp, CpAp and ApCp , the stacking energies in the ZKE approximation including zeropoint energies were found to be -0.031, -0.028, -0.033, -0.033 +/0.001 h, respectively. The corresponding free energy values at 298.15 K were found to be: -0.017, -0....

Precipitation gauges are critical for assessing precipitation measurements at regional and global scales often used to adjust estimates from other instruments such as satellites. However, gauge-measured is affected by gauge-undercatch that larger solid precipitation. In the present work, two popular correction factors (CFs) were compared: one utilizes a dynamic model in Global Climatology Centr...

We present an evaluation of daily estimates from three near real-time quasi-global Satellite Precipitation Products—Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA), Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks (PERSIANN), and Climate Prediction Center (CPC) Morphing Technique (CMORPH)—over the African contine...

How do the continents affect large-scale hydrological cycles? How important can one continent be to the climate system? To address these questions, five years of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Terra Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations, Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) observations, and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (G...

This study examines various dynamical and thermodynamical processes that characterize the Madden– Julian oscillation (MJO). Episodes of deep convection related to the MJO based on rainfall data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) are identified. Although broad convective envelopes are located utilizing spectrally ...

[1] Using a suite of satellite observations, including passive and active microwave along with visible and infrared observations developed to estimate wetlands on a global scale, the present study examine wetlands spatial and temporal dynamics over the Indian subcontinent, a region subject to an annual monsoon. Monthly wetlands extent estimates over a 2-year (1993–1994) period and their consist...

The boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (BSISO) plays an important role in the variability of a wide range weather and climate phenomena across region modulated by Asian monsoon system. This study evaluates strengths weaknesses 19 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) models to reproduce basic characteristics BSISO. models' rainfall largescale climates are evaluated against ...
