Substantial influence of vapour buoyancy on tropospheric air temperature and subtropical cloud
The molar mass of water vapour is less than that of dry air, making humid air lighter than dry air at the same temperature and pressure. This effect...

Changes in SST regulate hydroclimatic patterns in the monsoon marginal zone, northern China
The influence of recent global warming on the intensity, timing, and extent of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) remains not fully understood....

Relationship between magnetic properties and weathering in red soil profiles developed on weakly magnetic parent rock in the tropical and subtropical region of Yunnan, China
Magnetic studies of loess–paleosol sequences have shown that the magnetic properties of loess and its parent material are sensitive to weathering...

Increased synoptic variability along the subtropical Meiyu front under global warming
Dominant summertime disturbances along the subtropical Meiyu front are eastward-propagating synoptic-scale waves coupled with precipitation and...

Ecohydrological separation between tree xylem water and groundwater: Insights from two types of forests in subtropical China
PurposeEcohydrological separation (ES) phenomenon, whereby two compartmentalized soil reservoirs supply either plant water uptake or...
-
Non-summer hydrothermal conditions controlling tree growth in north subtropical China are closely related to AMO and PDO
Key messagePhase transitions of the AMO and PDO promote shifts in non-summer hydrothermal conditions, which further affect tree growth in north...
