TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the western Pacific Subtropical High is highly predictable and enables skillful prediction of the TS activities that the current dynamical models fail, and reveals that positive WPSH–ocean interaction can provide a source of climate predictability.
Abstract: Monsoon rainfall and tropical storms (TSs) impose great impacts on society, yet their seasonal predictions are far from successful. The western Pacific Subtropical High (WPSH) is a prime circulation system affecting East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and western North Pacific TS activities, but the sources of its variability and predictability have not been established. Here we show that the WPSH variation faithfully represents fluctuations of EASM strength (r = –0.92), the total TS days over the subtropical western North Pacific (r = –0.81), and the total number of TSs impacting East Asian coasts (r = –0.76) during 1979–2009. Our numerical experiment results establish that the WPSH variation is primarily controlled by central Pacific cooling/warming and a positive atmosphere-ocean feedback between the WPSH and the Indo-Pacific warm pool oceans. With a physically based empirical model and the state-of-the-art dynamical models, we demonstrate that the WPSH is highly predictable; this predictability creates a promising way for prediction of monsoon and TS. The predictions using the WPSH predictability not only yields substantially improved skills in prediction of the EASM rainfall, but also enables skillful prediction of the TS activities that the current dynamical models fail. Our findings reveal that positive WPSH–ocean interaction can provide a source of climate predictability and highlight the importance of subtropical dynamics in understanding monsoon and TS predictability.

TL;DR: In this article, measurements of the properties of D13,000 asteroids detected in 500 deg2 of sky in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) commissioning data were discussed.
Abstract: We discuss measurements of the properties of D13,000 asteroids detected in 500 deg2 of sky in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) commissioning data. The moving objects are detected in the magnitude range 14 \ r* \ 21.5, with a baseline of D5 minutes, resulting in typical velocity errors of D3%. Extensive tests show that the sample is at least 98% complete, with a contamination rate of less than 3%. We —nd that the size distribution of asteroids resembles a broken power law, independent of the heliocentric distance: D~2.3 for 0.4 km, and D~4 for 5

TL;DR: In this paper, a new version of the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) is presented in the form of a digital grid on a Polar Stereographic projection with grid cell spacing of 2 × 2 km.
Abstract: [1] A digital representation of ocean floor topography is essential for a broad variety of geological, geophysical and oceanographic analyses and modeling. In this paper we present a new version of the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) in the form of a digital grid on a Polar Stereographic projection with grid cell spacing of 2 × 2 km. The new IBCAO, which has been derived from an accumulated database of available bathymetric data including the recent years of multibeam mapping, significantly improves our portrayal of the Arctic Ocean seafloor.
