Heavy precipitation events where there’s no rain: Saharan rainfall climatology and its relationship with cyclones
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used high-resolution satellite precipitation estimates (IMERG) and meteorological reanalysis (ERA5) to identify thousands of heavy precipitation events (HPEs) that occurred over the Sahara in the past 21 years, and identify the governing atmospheric conditions on HPE-days, with a focus on surface cyclones.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors applied different chemical measurements to aerosol samples taken at a weekly resolution over 5 years (2015-2019), as well as precipitation and cloud water samples taken during a field campaign of two months in 2019 at Pic du Midi Observatory (French Pyrenees; 2877 m a.s.

TL;DR: In this paper , nested convection-resolving COSMOiso simulations with horizontal grid spacings of 10, 5, and 1 km were carried out over the tropical Atlantic for the time period of the EUREC4A field experiment.

Warm conveyor belts in present-day and future climate simulations. Part I: Climatology and impacts
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated how warm conveyor belts (WCB) will change in a future climate and found that WCB inflow regions in the North Pacific are systematically shifted northward in winter, which is in agreement with the northward shift of the storm track in this region.

TL;DR: In this article , a detailed in-situ observations of aerosols and clouds performed on board the Swedish icebreaker Oden were performed over the central Arctic Ocean in 2018. And they showed that Aitken-mode particles, i.e. particles below 70 nm diameter, contribute significantly to cloud-forming particles (here termed cloud residuals), especially towards autumn with the start of the freeze-up of the sea ice.
