Unraveling nonlinearities in daily-scale SPEI construction for improving extreme drought detection across China

High-temporal-resolution drought monitoring is essential for identifying short-duration and rapidly developing drought events that may be obscured at the conventional monthly scale. However, extending the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) from monthly to daily resolution is not simply a matter...

Effect of accumulated energy variation of pelagic tropical cyclones over the Northeast Pacific on El Niño spatial diversity

Pelagic tropical cyclones (TCs) over the Northeast Pacific (ENP) do not make landfall, so they have not been paid enough attention. This study explores the impact of these tropical cyclones (TCs) on El Niño diversity, based on both traditional and new classifications of El Niño spatial patterns using accumulated cycl...
