Sometimes, this advection of cold and dry air above near-surface moist and warm air can make the atmosphere conditionally unstable. Therefore, these WDs are associated with thunderstorm formation and lightning activity over northern India (north of 20° north); however, occasionally, the effect of WDs extends up to the entry point of southern India. The satellite and ground-based observations of lightning over western India (15.5°–22°N, 72.5°–81°E) over two decades (1997–2023) observed a falling trend of winter lightning at the rate of −0.02 (LIS/OTD), and −0.06 (ILLN) flashes km−2 year−1, respectively. Our observation suggested that the majority of lightning and thunderstorm activity is primarily initiated by WDs during winter; however, the incursion of moisture from the surrounding oceans also plays a crucial role in producing severe weather and precipitation over the study region. Many researchers and our observations have shown a decreasing trend of WD frequencies and winter precipitation over the Indian region. This paper addresses important aspects of climate change as lightning activity and thunderstorm days decreased steadily over western India, suggesting the falling trend is possibly linked to the weakening and reduced frequency of WDs from 1997 to 2023. While global trends suggest increasing lightning with climate change, this study reveals a decreasing trend in lightning activity, highlighting the uneven regional impacts of climate change.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA003726","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143818517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Locating these signatures using edge detection techniques is crucial for geological structural interpretation and imaging of horizontal boundaries. This paper proposes two effective edge detection tools: one combining the balanced total horizontal gradient (BHG), and the hyperbolic tangent function, abbreviated as “MTBHG”; and the other combining the tilt angle of the total horizontal gradient (TAHG) and the hyperbolic tangent function, abbreviated as “MTAHG.” Additionally, the Modified Non-Local Means (MNLM) filter was applied to suppress possible noise effects amplified by the gradient calculation process. Synthetic tests validated that the MTAHG and MTBHG detectors outperform other representative detectors. Two high-resolution gravity data sets from the Western Carpathians in Slovakia and the Witwatersrand Basin in South Africa were used to test the applicability of the modified methods. Results show that the modified detectors achieve superior edge delineation and avoid creating spurious anomalies or artifacts even in the presence of unwanted noise interference. Furthermore, by eliminating false tilt-depth (TD) solutions via the edge detection results, we enhance the accuracy of depth estimates and facilitate the credible identification of both horizontal and vertical structure distributions.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA003900","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143793787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Qinghai province, a high-altitude region in northwest China, is highly sensitive to climate change, and understanding its response to the warming slowdown is crucial. Using data from 34 meteorological stations between 1960 and 2016, we analyzed the temperature variations in Qinghai via Mann-Kendall trend analysis, Sen's slope method, and ANUSPLIN interpolation. The findings were compared with data from other regions to examine the response of temperature variations during the warming slowdown. Furthermore, we explored the influence of large-scale climate patterns on temperature variation using wavelet transform coherence analysis. The results indicated that both annual and seasonal temperatures exhibit a consistent warming trend, with a significant upward shift post ∼2,000. The most pronounced warming occurred in the autumn minimum and winter maximum temperatures. Temperature magnitudes were lower in high-altitude areas in the southwest, southeast, and northeast, and higher in the relatively lower-altitude areas in the east and northwest of Qinghai. The warming trend exhibited a clear southeast-to-northwest gradient, reflecting both latitudinal and meridional distribution characteristics. During the warming slowdown, a hiatus phenomenon was observed in the annual, autumn, and winter temperatures of northern Qinghai, although the overall warming trend remained consistent with that of the Tibetan Plateau. The Arctic oscillation was found to play a key role in influencing the annual mean temperatures in the region, while the Pacific decadal oscillation may be another climatic pattern contributing to the observed hiatus period.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2025EA004276","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143793902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, active landslides in the reservoir areas of Wudongde Hydropower Station, were detected combining Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar observations and optical image interpretation. Through detailed verification and screening, we identified 128 landslides, most of which are located at an altitude of 1,000–2,000 m, with slopes of 20–35°. After reservoir impoundment, wading landslides were found to be more prone to change state than non-wading landslides. As the primary control factor of wading landslides, reservoir impoundment can either accelerate or decelerate landslide deformation depending on the equilibrium state between soil saturation and hydrostatic pressure. Furthermore, wavelet transform analysis indicates that rainfall and reservoir level significantly contribute to the seasonal oscillations of landslide deformation. The results of this study can contribute to the prevention of landslide hazards in the Wudongde reservoir area and other areas of the world where large hydropower stations have been constructed.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA004002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143787178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The events detected after 1995, are automatically associated with possible physical driving causes, such as interplanetary coronal mass ejections and stream interaction regions. The resulting list of events is consistent with our understanding of how radiation belts respond to interplanetary drivers, in terms of event intensity, duration, and distribution over the solar cycle.

Accurate measurements of AT and SH are essential for weather forecasting, climate modeling, data assimilation, and trend assessment. The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) provides global estimates of near-surface AT and SH estimates, with continuous improvements in accuracy leading to significant reductions in error rates. However, existing studies have not systematically validated AIRS near-surface products in both temporal and spatial perspectives, especially over oceans. This study aims to address this gap by using the International Comprehensive Ocean–Atmosphere Data Set as a ground-based reference to evaluate AIRS near-surface AT and SH over the ocean from the V7 Level 2 product. Our results show an overall underestimation of near-surface AT and SH. Spatially, higher uncertainties, indicated by high root-mean-square error, near land were found. In terms of seasonality and diurnal variation, we found that the products perform better during winter and at night on a global scale, although there are regional exceptions. In terms of temporal variation, the estimation errors show remarkable stability over a 20-year period, demonstrating the ability of AIRS to capture general temporal characteristics. These findings underscore the importance of validating and understanding the retrieval uncertainties of AIRS near-surface products, paving the way for improved climatological applications.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA003856","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These fields, generated by currents from spacecraft subsystems, are frequently several times stronger than the ambient magnetic field signals of interest. To mitigate this, strict magnetic cleanliness, long mechanical booms, and at least two magnetometers are typically necessary to eliminate the spacecraft-generated magnetic interference. When two magnetometers are placed collinearly on a boom, gradiometry can be performed by modeling the spacecraft's field as a dipole and subtracting it from the magnetometer measurements. However, this technique requires careful preflight characterization of the spacecraft's magnetic field to determine the dipole coupling coefficients and sufficient boom length. This process is time-intensive, costly, and prone to error due to the changing nature of a spacecraft magnetic field environment in operation. We propose a novel method for in situ calculation of the gradiometric coupling coefficients, called the Reduction Algorithm for Magnetometer Electromagnetic Noise (RAMEN). RAMEN utilizes single-source point analysis and the time-frequency content of the magnetometer signals to identify stray magnetic field signals and calculate the gradiometric coupling coefficients. Through two Monte Carlo simulations, we demonstrate that the RAMEN gradiometry algorithm matches gradiometry with preflight coupling coefficient estimation. Additionally, we apply the RAMEN algorithm to noisy magnetometer data from the Venus Express spacecraft to demonstrate its use. The RAMEN method enhances the fidelity of spaceborne magnetic field observations using gradiometry and reduces the burden of arduous preflight spacecraft magnetic characterization.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA003914","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143740977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, standardized methods for empirical resolution validation have not been widely adopted across lidar applications. While theoretical models of idealized lidar sampling resolution can be used to describe topographical resolution, misrepresented or unknown behaviors in an instrument, platform, or environment can degrade expected performance or introduce georeferencing inaccuracies. Furthermore, bathymetric resolution is strongly dependent on water surface and column conditions. Thus, only empirical methods for evaluating resolution will provide reliable estimates for both topographic and bathymetric surveys. Presented is an extension of standard modulation transfer function (MTF) methods used by passive imaging systems applied to high-resolution scanning lidar. Compact retroreflectors characterized as point and line sources are employed to empirically assess effective lidar system resolution through MTF analysis in topographic and bathymetric scenes. These targets enable MTF analyses using height measurements without reliance on intensity data, promoting widespread applicability among lidar systems. Empirical MTFs calculated using these targets are compared against theory-derived counterparts as empirical measurements elucidate influences by elements that are unknown or difficult to model. Simulated point cloud data were incorporated into theoretical MTF descriptions to better represent empirically-derived topographic MTFs, revealing mirror pointing uncertainties in the across-track axis. Similarly, theoretical bathymetric MTFs augmented with simulated, subaqueous data enabled water surface slope estimation using empirical measurements of submerged retroreflector targets, where rough water surfaces strongly influenced beam steering and the corresponding point spread MTFs.","PeriodicalId":54286,"journal":{"name":"Earth and Space Science","volume":"12 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024EA004098","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143707342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using these selected features, we have developed a fuzzy clustering-based method to automate the classification of RFs into good or bad quality. This method has been applied to two RF data sets in China–computed from broadband arrays in the Tanlu fault zone and northeast China region. Compared to the hand-picked result, our clustering-based classifier achieves great recall and precision scores exceeding 93% and 83.4%, respectively. These robust classification results suggest that the 4 identified physical attributes could serve as a standard criterion for guiding RF picking.
