TL;DR: In this article, an integrated view of debris-covered glacier response to climate change is presented, which helps provide a long-term perspective on evolving glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs).
Journal ArticleDOI
More tropical cyclones are striking coasts with major intensities at landfall
TL;DR: This article showed that the number of annual global tropical cyclone (TC) landfalls with major landfall intensity (LI ≥ 50 m s-1) has nearly doubled from 1982 to 2020.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of wind-solar hybrid plants in mitigating renewable energy-droughts
TL;DR: In this article , a stochastic weather generator was used to estimate the return periods of extreme wind and solar-droughts in India and showed that the benefits of hybridization are regionally dependent, and that the role of wind-solar hybridization can play in offsetting low wind energy episodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the intensity decay of tropical cyclones before landfall
TL;DR: In this article , a logistic decay model of energy production by ocean enthalpy input and surface dissipation by frictional drag, can physically connect the LMI to LI, and the model fits the observed intensity decay as well as an empirically exponential decay does, with a clear physical foundation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk assessment of wind droughts over India
TL;DR: In this article , a stochastic weather generator, IMAGE, is employed to identify extreme events through long-period simulations, which captures mean, spatial correlation and seasonality in wind speed and estimates return periods of extreme wind events over India.
