TL;DR: It is shown that weather regimes provide a meteorological explanation for multi-day fluctuations in Europe’s wind power and can help guide new deployment pathways which minimise this variability.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the importance of diabatic processes for the complex interaction of weather systems in the North Atlantic-European sector during the week of 7-14 September 2008.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Lagrangian approach applied to reanalysis data shows that a large fraction of air masses are heated before entering a blocking system, pointing to a role for latent heating.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the key atmospheric processes that caused the 2013 Danube and Elbe flood in central Europe and found that the continuous large-scale slantwise ascent in so-called "equatorward ascending" warm conveyor belts (WCBs) associated with these cyclones was the key process that caused a 4 day heavy precipitation period.

TL;DR: In situ observations from a flight made during the Geostationary Earth Radiation (GERBILS) field campaign (June 2007) show significant dust uplift into the monsoon flow immediately south of the intertropical discontinuity in the western Sahara.
