Uncovering the Tradeoffs and Synergies of Ecosystem Services in Mining Landscapes: Spatiotemporal and Factor Detection Perspective

Revealing the spatial-temporal evolution and interactions of ecosystem services (ESs) in mining area is critical for sustainable environmental management. The temporal and spatial characteristics and changing trends of six ESs in Yuzhong mi...

Characteristics of two mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) over the Greater Jakarta: case of heavy rainfall period 15–18 January 2013

Abstract Two different mesoscale convective system (MCS) events that produced the heavy rainfall over the Greater Jakarta (GJ) during 15–18 January 2013 period were investigated. The purpose of the present study is to analyze the atmospheri...

Multimodel GCM-RCM Ensemble-Based Projections of Temperature and Precipitation over West Africa for the Early 21st Century

Reliable climate change scenarios are critical for West Africa, whose economy relies mostly on agriculture and, in this regard, multimodel ensembles are believed to provide the most robust climate change information. Toward this end, we ana...

Report on the second academic forum on earthquake hazard chain, 12 November 2022, Beijing, China

The second academic forum of the Committee on the Earthquake Hazard Chain, Seismological Society of China was held on 12 November 2022 in Beijing, China. The theme of this forum was theoretical research, technical application and populariza...

New palaeomagnetic data for Palaeoproterozoic AMCG complexes of the Ukrainian Shield

A palaeomagnetic study of rocks for two Palaeoproterozoic anorthosite-mangerite-charnockite-granite (AMCG) complexes in the Ukrainian Shield was done to put additional constraints on the interpretation of palaeogeography of Fennoscandia and...

A multi-instrumental and modeling analysis of the ionospheric responses to the solar eclipse on 14 December 2020 over the Brazilian region

This work presents an analysis of the ionospheric responses to the solar eclipse that occurred on 14 December 2020 over the Brazilian sector. This event partially covers the south of Brazil, providing an excellent opportunity to study the m...

Snow Depth Retrieval Using Detrended SNR From GNSS-R With Bidirectional GRU

Snow depth monitoring is crucial for hydrology, climate research, and avalanche prediction. While traditional global navigation satellite system (GNSS) reflectometer methods offer cost-effective snow thickness retrieval, they suffer from po...

The effect of vibrationally excited nitrogen on the low-latitude ionosphere

The first five vibrationally excited states of molecular nitrogen have been included in the Sheffield University plasmasphere ionosphere model. Vibrationally excited molecular nitrogen reacts much more strongly with atomic oxygen ions th...

Forward-Looking Geometric Configuration Optimization Design for Spaceborne-Airborne Multistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar

Spaceborne-airborne multistatic synthetic aperture radar (SA-MuSAR) has the ability to provide high-resolution forward-looking imagery for receivers, but it relies on careful design of the geometric configuration (GC). In this article, a fo...

GPS network observation of traveling ionospheric disturbances following the Chelyabinsk meteorite blast

We use the Global Positioning System (GPS) network in northwest China and central Asia to monitor traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs), which were possibly excited by the large meteorite blast over Chelyabinsk, Russia, on 15 Februar...

Internal Variability Reshapes Externally Forced Trends in Marine Cold‐Air Outbreak Frequency Over the Northern Hemisphere

Abstract Marine cold‐air outbreaks (MCAOs) are key conduits of polar‐to‐midlatitude air‐mass exchange, strongly modulating wintertime air–sea heat fluxes, storm‐track activity, and the development of extreme cold conditions over adjacent co...

A comparative study on chaoticity of equatorial/low latitude ionosphere over Indian subcontinent during geomagnetically quiet and disturbed periods

In the present study, the latitudinal aspect of chaotic behaviour of ionosphere during quiet and storm periods are analyzed and compared by using GPS TEC time series measured at equatorial trough, crest and outside crest stations over India...

Topology and seasonal evolution of the network of extreme precipitation over the Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka

This paper employs a complex network approach to determine the topology and evolution of the network of extreme precipitation that governs the organization of extreme rainfall before, during, and after the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) season...

New trends in active faulting studies for seismic hazard assessment

Interplanetary external driven quasidynamo as the origin of geomagnetic jerks correlated with length of day and gravity anomaly

We report phenomenological inevitable correlation between the Sun’s magnetic field oscillation through the Earth and the Jupiter, with sinusoidal geomagnetic jerks observed at the Earth, additionally aligned with the gravity and length of d...

Fluctuation-Response Relation and modeling in systems with fast and slow dynamics

We show how a general formulation of the Fluctuation-Response Relation is able to describe in detail the connection between response properties to external perturbations and spontaneous fluctuations in systems with fast and slow variables. ...

Spatial and temporal distribution of vertical ground movements at Mt. Vesuvius in the period 1973-2009

Since the early ’70s vertical ground movements at Mount Vesuvius area have been investigated and monitored by the Osservatorio Vesuviano (Isti-tuto Nazionale di Geofisica Vulcanologia - Osservatorio Vesuviano since 2001). This monitoring be...

Impact of Urbanization on Cloud Characteristics over Sofia, Bulgaria

Urban artificial surfaces and structures induce modifications in land–atmosphere interactions, affecting the exchange of energy, momentum, and substances. These modifications stimulate urban climate formation by altering the values and dyna...

Verification of the multi-layer SNOWPACK model with different water transport schemes

The widely used detailed SNOWPACK model has undergone constant development over the years. A notable recent extension is the introduction of a Richards equation (RE) solver as an alternative for the bucket-type approach for describing water...
