PAPYRUS: Design and integration of the Shack-Hartmann branch Open
The PAPYRUS project is an adaptive optics bench installed on a 1.5 meter telescope at the Haute-Provence Observatory in south of France. Since the first light of the instrument in June 2022, it has now undergone one year of on-sky experime…

The Effect of a Kona Low on the Eastern Pacific Valentine’s Day (2019) Atmospheric River Open
A high-impact atmospheric river (AR) event that made landfall on the U.S. West Coast on Valentine’s Day of 2019 and produced widespread flooding in California is examined. The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory cloud resolving and high-resolut…

Equatorial Waves Triggering Extreme Rainfall and Floods in Southwest Sulawesi, Indonesia Open
On the basis of detailed analysis of a case study and long-term climatology, it is shown that equatorial waves and their interactions serve as precursors for extreme rain and flood events in the central Maritime Continent region of southwe…

The Unexpected Rapid Intensification of Tropical Cyclones in Moderate Vertical Wind Shear. Part III: Outflow–Environment Interaction Open
Interactions between the upper-level outflow of a sheared, rapidly intensifying tropical cyclone (TC) and the background environmental flow in an idealized model are presented. The most important finding is that the divergent outflow from …

Targeted ocean sampling guidance for tropical cyclones Open
A 3‐D variational ocean data assimilation adjoint approach is used to examine the impact of ocean observations on coupled tropical cyclone (TC) model forecast error for three recent hurricanes: Isaac (2012), Hilda (2015), and Matthew (2016…

Multiple and spin off initiation of atmospheric convectively coupled Kelvin waves Open
A novel atmospheric convectively coupled Kelvin wave trajectories database, derived from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission precipitation data, is used to investigate initiation of sequential Kelvin wave events. Based on the analysis of b…
