Numerical study of the triggering mechanism of the 2018 Anak Krakatau tsunami: eruption or collapsed landslide?
The eruption and collapse of the Anak Krakatau volcano generated tsunamis in the Sunda Strait on December 22, 2018, leading to damage and casualties. In this paper, we use the two-layer model and nonlinear sha...

Was the North American extreme climate in winter 2013/14 a SST forced response?
This study analyzed the possible causes of the atmospheric circulation anomalies responsible for the severe North American (NA) climate in the winter 2013/14. The seasonal (December-January-February) mean circ...

What drove the Pacific and North America climate anomalies in winter 2014/15?
In late 2014 and early 2015, the canonical atmospheric response to the El Niño and Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event was not observed in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific, although Niño3.4 index excee...

The Dependency of Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment on Magnitude Limits of Seismic Sources in the South China Sea and Adjoining Basins
The South China Sea (SCS) and its adjacent small basins including Sulu Sea and Celebes Sea are commonly identified as tsunami-prone region by its historical records on seismicity and tsunamis. However, quantif...

Is the interdecadal variation of the summer rainfall over eastern China associated with SST?
The present study examined the major features of the interdecadal variation of the summer rainfall over eastern China (IVRC) and the possible association with sea surface temperature (SST). We noted that the f...
