A Hyperactive End to the Atlantic Hurricane Season October–November 2020
(American Meteorological Society, 2022)
Article
Open AccessThe active 2020 Atlantic hurricane season produced 30 named storms, 14 hurricanes, and 7 major hurricanes (category 3+ on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale). Though the season was active overall, the final two months ... -
Climate Services Toolbox (CSTools) v4.0: from climate forecasts to climate forecast information
(Copernicus Publications, 2022)
Article
Open AccessDespite the wealth of existing climate forecast data, only a small part is effectively exploited for sectoral applications. A major cause of this is the lack of integrated tools that allow the translation of data into ... -
A multi-pollutant and multi-sectorial approach to screening the consistency of emission inventories
(Copernicus Publications, 2022)
Article
Open AccessSome studies show that significant uncertainties affect emission inventories, which may impeach conclusions based on air-quality model results. These uncertainties result from the need to compile a wide variety of information ... -
Towards more effective visualisations in climate services: good practices and recommendations
(Springer, 2022)
Article
Open AccessVisualisations are often the entry point to information that supports stakeholders’ decision- and policy-making processes. Visual displays can employ either static, dynamic or interactive formats as well as various types ... -
Advances in the subseasonal prediction of extreme events: relevant case studies across the globe
(American Meteorological Society, 2022-06)
Article
Open AccessExtreme weather events have devastating impacts on human health, economic activities, ecosystems, and infrastructure. It is therefore crucial to anticipate extremes and their impacts to allow for preparedness and emergency ... -
Multi-sectoral impact assessment of an extreme African dust episode in the Eastern Mediterranean in March 2018
(Elsevier, 2022)
Article
Open AccessIn late March 2018, a large part of the Eastern Mediterranean experienced an extraordinary episode of African dust, one of the most intense in recent years, here referred to as the “Minoan Red” event. The episode mainly ... -
Use of genetic algorithms for ocean model parameter optimisation: a case study using PISCES-v2_RC for North Atlantic particulate organic carbon
(Copernicus Publications, 2022)
Article
Open AccessWhen working with Earth system models, a considerable challenge that arises is the need to establish the set of parameter values that ensure the optimal model performance in terms of how they reflect real-world observed ... -
European primary emissions of criteria pollutants and greenhouse gases in 2020 modulated by the COVID-19 pandemic disruptions
(Copernicus Publications, 2022-06)
Article
Open AccessWe present a European dataset of daily sector-, pollutant- and country-dependent emission adjustment factors associated with the COVID-19 mobility restrictions for the year 2020. We considered metrics traditionally used ... -
Representation and annual to decadal predictability of Euro-Atlantic weather regimes in the CMIP6 Version of the EC-Earth Coupled Climate Model
(Wiley, 2022-07-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWeather regimes are large-scale atmospheric circulation states that frequently occur in the climate system with persistence and recurrence, and are associated with the occurrence of specific local weather conditions. This ... -
Third revision of the global surface seawater dimethyl sulfide climatology (DMS-Rev3)
(Copernicus Publications, 2022)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents an updated estimation of the bottom-up global surface seawater dimethyl sulfide (DMS) climatology. This update, called DMS-Rev3, is the third of its kind and includes five significant changes from the ... -
The MONARCH high-resolution reanalysis of desert dust aerosol over Northern Africa, the Middle East and Europe (2007–2016)
(Copernicus Office, 2022-06-21)
Article
Open AccessOne of the challenges in studying desert dust aerosol along with its numerous interactions and impacts is the paucity of direct in situ measurements, particularly in the areas most affected by dust storms. Satellites ... -
