Analysis and combination of four technique-individual EOP time series by Lizhen Lian, Jiexian Wang, Chengli Huang

“…The EOPs studied here mainly consist of four elements, i.e. polar motion (XPO, YPO), Universal Time (UT1-UTC) and length-of-day (LOD). We combined these intra-technique EOP series, each of them associated with a given space geodetic technique by taking advantage of the relationship of the first three EOP components and three rotational parameters which carry the orientation of technique-related reference frame with respect to the estimated weekly inter-technique combined reference frame. …”

Satellite Radiance Data Assimilation Using the WRF-3DVAR System for Tropical Storm Dianmu (2021) Forecasts by Thippawan Thodsan, Falin Wu, Kritanai Torsri, Efren Martin Alban Cuestas, Gongliu Yang

“…To evaluate the impact of the assimilation experiments, a forecast starting on 00 UTC 23 September 2021, was produced for 72 h. The results showed that the ALL-OBS experiment improved the short-term forecast up to ~24 h lead time, as compared to the assimilation considering only PREPBUFR observations. …”

Dust Storm Event of February 2019 in Central and East Coast of Australia and Evidence of Long-Range Transport to New Zealand and Antarctica by Hiep Duc Nguyen, Matt Riley, John Leys, David Salter

“…Modelling results using the WRF-Chem model show that for the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand, peak concentration of PM₁₀ (and PM_2.5) as measured on 14 February 2019 at 05:00 UTC at the monitoring stations of Geraldine, Ashburton, Timaru and Woolston (Christchurch), and about 2 h later at Rangiora and Kaiapoi, correspond to the prediction of high PM₁₀ due to the intrusion of dust to ground level from the transported dust layer above. …”

Seasonal variations of aerosol size distributions based on long-term measurements at the high altitude Himalayan site of Nepal Climate Observatory-Pyramid (5079 m), Nepal by K. Sellegri, P. Laj, H. Venzac, J. Boulon, D. Picard, P. Villani, P. Bonasoni, A. Marinoni, P. Cristofanelli, E. Vuillermoz

“…A diurnal variation is also clearly observed, with maxima between 09:00 and 12:00 UTC. The aerosol concentration maxima are mainly due to nucleation processes during the post-monsoon season, as witnessed by high nucleation mode integrated number concentrations, and to transport of high levels of pollution from the plains by valley breezes during the pre-monsoon season, as demonstrated by high accumulation mode integrated number concentrations. …”

Monitoring the Mauna Loa (Hawaii) eruption of November–December 2022 from space: Results from GOES-R, Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8/9 observations by Nicola Genzano, Francesco Marchese, Simon Plank, Nicola Pergola

“…The analysis of short-wave infrared (SWIR) data, at 10 min temporal resolution, from the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI), aboard the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites − R series (GOES-R), performed through the Normalised Hotspot Indices (NHI), indicates that the Mauna Loa eruption started on 27 November in between 23:10–23:20 LT (28 November at 09:10–09:20 UTC). The same analysis shows the increase of thermal activity and its progressive reduction from the early morning of 28 November, in agreement with the eruption migration from the summit caldera to the Northeast Rift Zone. …”
