Changes to the North Atlantic subtropical high and its role in the intensification of summer rainfall variability in the southeastern United States
(Journal of Climate, 2011-03-01)This study investigates the changes of the North Atlantic subtropical high (NASH) and its impact on summer precipitation over the southeastern (SE) United States using the 850-hPa geopotential height field in the National ... -
CMIP5 climate model analyses: Climate extremes in the United States
(Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2014-01-01)Given the increases in spatial resolution and other improvements in climate modeling capabilities over the last decade since the CMIP3 simulations were completed, CMIP5 provides a unique opportunity to assess scientific ... -
CMIP5 model simulations of Ethiopian Kiremt-season precipitation: current climate and future changes
(Climate Dynamics, 2016-05-01)© 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Kiremt-season (June–September) precipitation provides a significant water supply for Ethiopia, particularly in the central and northern regions. The response of Kiremt-season ... -
Contribution of the North Atlantic subtropical high to regional climate model (RCM) skill in simulating southeastern United States summer precipitation
(Climate Dynamics, 2015-07-26)© 2014, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.This study assesses the skill of advanced regional climate models (RCMs) in simulating southeastern United States (SE US) summer precipitation and explores the physical mechanisms ... -
Emergence and pathogenicity of highly virulent Cryptococcus gattii genotypes in the northwest United States.
(PLoS Pathog, 2010-04-22)Cryptococcus gattii causes life-threatening disease in otherwise healthy hosts and to a lesser extent in immunocompromised hosts. The highest incidence for this disease is on Vancouver Island, Canada, where an outbreak is ... -
Erratum: A power-efficient switched-capacitor stimulating system for electrical/optical deep-brain stimulation (IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits (2015) 50:1 (360-374))

Glucose oxidase triggers gelation of N-hydroxyimide-heparin conjugates to form enzyme-responsive hydrogels for cell-specific drug delivery
(Chemical Science, 2014-11-01)A new strategy for creating enzyme-responsive hydrogels by employing an N-hydroxyimide-heparin conjugate, designed to act as both an enzyme-mediated radical initiator and an enzyme-sensitive therapeutic carrier, is described. ... -
Hydrogel-coated enzyme electrodes formed by GOx-mediated polymerization for glucose detecting
(RSC Advances, 2015-01-01)This communication reports the mild fabrication of a hydrogel-coated enzyme electrode for glucose detecting with high sensitivity (35.19 μA mM-1 cm-2) and robust stability. -
Hydrological Response of East China to the Variation of East Asian Summer Monsoon
(Advances in Meteorology, 2016-01-01)Copyright © 2016 Fuxing Li et al.The sensitivity of hydrologic variables in East China, that is, runoff, precipitation, evapotranspiration, and soil moisture to the fluctuation of East Asian summer monsoon (EASM), is evaluated ... -
Impact of the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation on Tropical Cyclone Activity in the North Atlantic and Eastern North Pacific.
(Sci Rep, 2015-07-24)Tropical cyclones (TCs) are among the most devastating weather systems affecting the United States and Central America (USCA). Here we show that the Interdecadal Pacific Oscillation (IPO) strongly modulates TC activity over ... -
Impacts of land use change and climate variations on annual inflow into the Miyun Reservoir, Beijing, China
(Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2016-04-22)© Author(s) 2016.The Miyun Reservoir, the only surface water source for Beijing city, has experienced water supply decline in recent decades. Previous studies suggest that both land use change and climate contribute to the ... -
Influence of land surface on transition from dry to wet season in Amazonia
(Theoretical & Applied Climatology, 2004)Analysis of the fifteen years of European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis suggests that the transition from dry to wet season in Southern Amazonia is initially driven by increases of surface ... -
Intensification of summer rainfall variability in the southeastern United States during recent decades
(Journal of Hydrometeorology, 2010-08-01)The variability of summer precipitation in the southeastern United States is examined in this study using 60-yr (1948-2007) rainfall data. The Southeast summer rainfalls exhibited higher interannual variability with more ... -
Interannual variation of the surface temperature of tropical forests from satellite observations
(Advances in Meteorology, 2015-05-17)Land surface temperatures (LSTs) within tropical forests contribute to climate variations. However, observational data are very limited in such regions. This study used passive microwave remote sensing data from the Special ... -

Thermodynamic and dynamic contributions to future changes in regional precipitation variance: focus on the Southeastern United States
(Climate Dynamics, 2014-07-02)© 2014, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.The frequency and severity of extreme events are tightly associated with the variance of precipitation. As climate warms, the acceleration in hydrological cycle is likely to enhance ... -
Top-of-atmosphere radiative contribution to unforced decadal global temperature variability in climate models
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2014-07-28)Much recent work has focused on unforced global mean surface air temperature (T) variability associated with the efficiency of heat transport into the deep ocean. Here the relationship between unforced variability in T and ...
