ABSTRACT: Tornadoes in Canada frequently impact rural regions, particularly croplands, where traditional enhanced Fujita scale (EF scale) assessments are limited due to the absence of standard damage indicators. Not knowing the true intensities of these tornadoes results in an naccurate tornado climatology for these regions. This study evaluates the potential of the normalized difference vegeta…
ABSTRACT: This study examines aerosol classifications which impact the Earth�atmosphere system by estimating and analyzing aerosol species based on aerosol properties obtained from seven Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) stations in India: Kanpur (KP), Jaipur (JP), Gandhi College (GC), Pune (PN), IIT Delhi (IIT), Amity University Gurgaon (AUG), and Gual Pahari (GP) with different terrain and …
ABSTRACT: The more frequent occurrence of extreme precipitation events (EPE) worldwide has drawn widespread attention, yet EPE in some regions still require a more comprehensive analysis. In this study, we examine spatiotemporal characteristics, periodic oscillations, and population exposure risks associated with EPE in Guangdong, China, from 1961 to 2022. Using highresolution precipitation and…
ABSTRACT: Bias correction (BC) is commonly used to refine dynamical climate model results for use in applied research. However, uncertainties linked to the BC of multivariate meteorological indices, crucial for many applied research applications, are often underappreciated. Focusing on daily maximum values of the multivariate heat index (HI, a function of temperature and relative humidity), thi…
ABSTRACT: Gust factors are widely used in engineering applications to adjust wind data to standard siting and roughness conditions. Multiyear average gust factors have been typically applied in the applications. Using 1-min Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) data from over 500 stations in the contiguous United States, the gust factor record is assessed for significant discontinuities usi…
ABSTRACT: This study conducts numerical simulations using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model to evaluate the impact of urbanization on precipitation in the Osaka metropolitan area, a megacity adjacent to the sea and mountains. The simulations were conducted for 320 events on which convective precipitation was likely to occur. The results of the control (CTRL) experiment, which use…
ABSTRACT: A gridded wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) climatology for the southeastern United States is presented, emphasizing athlete and worker safety thresholds. Hourly WBGT estimates are derived from the land component of the fifth generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts atmospheric reanalysis (ERA5-Land) and validated using U.S. Climate Reference Network estimates fro…
ABSTRACT: Northeast China experiences significant snowstorms during winter. However, the microphysics of snowfall in this area remains poorly understood. This study aims to address this gap by comparing the microphysical characteristics and related meteorological conditions of wet and dry snow in Northeast China. The results indicate that the number concentration (NC) of wet snow is approximate…
