A weather system perspective on winter–spring rainfall variability in southeastern Australia during El Niño
Hauser, Seraphine; Grams, Christian M.; Reeder, Michael J.; McGregor, Shayne; Fink, Andreas H.; Quinting, Julian F. (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2020)The El Niño phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is typically associated with below-average cool-season rainfall in southeastern Australia (SEA). However, there is also large case-to-case variability on monthly ... -
An evaluation of operational and research weather forecasts for southern West Africa using observations from the DACCIWA field campaign in June–July 2016
Kniffka, Anke; Knippertz, Peter; Fink, Andreas H.; Benedetti, Angela; Brooks, Malcolm E.; Hill, Peter G.; Maranan, Marlon; Pante, Gregor; Vogel, Bernhard (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2020)Reliable and accurate weather forecasts, particularly those of rainfall and its extremes, have the potential to improve living conditions in densely populated southern West Africa (SWA). The limited availability of ... -
Statistical Forecasts for the Occurrence of Precipitation Outperform Global Models over Northern Tropical Africa
Vogel, Peter; Knippertz, Peter; Gneiting, Tilmann; Fink, Andreas H.; Klar, Manuel; Schlueter, Andreas (Geophysical Research Letters, 2021-02-02)Short‐term global ensemble predictions of rainfall currently have no skill over northern tropical Africa when compared to simple climatology‐based forecasts, even after sophisticated statistical postprocessing. Here, we ... -
The influence of DACCIWA radiosonde data on the quality of ECMWF analyses and forecasts over southern West Africa
van der Linden, Roderick; Knippertz, Peter; Fink, Andreas H.; Ingleby, Bruce; Maranan, Marlon; Benedetti, Angela (Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2020)During the DACCIWA (Dynamics–Aerosol–Chemistry–Cloud Interactions in West Africa) field campaign ∼900 radiosondes were launched from 12 stations in southern West Africa from 15 June to 31 July 2016. Subsequently, data-denial ... -
Towards a more comprehensive assessment of the intensity of historical European heat waves (1979–2019)
Becker, Florian N.; Fink, Andreas H.; Bissolli, Peter; Pinto, Joaquim G. (Atmospheric Science Letters, 2022-07-04)Europe has been affected by record‐breaking heat waves in recent decades. Using station data and a gridded reanalysis as input, four commonly used heat wave indices, the heat wave magnitude index daily (HWMId), excess heat ... -
Using seasonal rainfall clusters to explain the interannual variability of the rain belt over the Greater Horn of Africa
Seregina, Larisa S.; Fink, Andreas H.; van der Linden, Roderick; Funk, Chris; Pinto, Joaquim G. (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)The seasonal cycle of rainfall over the Greater Horn of Africa (GHA) is dominated by the latitudinal migration and activity of the tropical rain belt (TRB). The TRB exhibits high interannual variability in the GHA and the ...
