Mechanisms and impacts of Earth system tipping elements
Tipping elements are components of the Earth system which may respond nonlinearly to anthropogenic climate change by transitioning toward substantially different long-term...- publication PDF

Shifting velocity of temperature extremes under climate change
Rapid changes in climatic conditions threaten both socioeconomic and ecological systems, as these might not be able to adapt or to migrate at the same pace as that of global...- publication PDF

Submesoscales enhance storm-driven vertical mixing of nutrients: Insights...
Storms deepen the mixed layer, entrain nutrients from the pycnocline, and fuel phytoplankton blooms in midlatitude oceans. However, the effects of oceanic submesoscale (0.1-10...- publication PDF

Hydropluviometric variability in non-Sahelian West Africa: Case of the...
The Koliba/Corubal River watershed is poorly documented due to the hydrometric measurements shutdown and gaps in the very short hydropluviometric timeseries. The purpose of this...- publication PDF

Distance-dependent filtering of background error covariance estimates in an...
The usefulness of a distance-dependent reduction of background error covariance estimates in an ensemble Kalman filter is demonstrated. Covariances are reduced by performing an...- publication PDF

Asymmetry in the seasonal cycle of zonal-mean surface air temperature
At most latitudes, the seasonal cycle of zonal-mean surface air temperature is notably asymmetric: the length of the warming season is not equal to the length of the cooling...- publication PDF
