Stable isotope data of daily precipitation during the period of 2013-2017 from K-puszta (regional background monitoring station), Hungary.

ABSTRACT: Precipitation was collected on daily basis at K-puszta regional background monitoring station located near Kecskemét, in the western part of the Great Hungarian Plain, between 1 April 2013 and 31 December 2017 for stable hydrogen and oxygen analyses. The sample collection period covered 24 hours, from 07:00 to 07:00 h LT (Local Time) the next day. Stable hydrogen and oxygen isotope composition of the daily precipitation samples were measured using a Liquid Water Isotope Analyser (LWIA-24d) manufactured by Los Gatos Research Ltd. The dataset includes 472 stable isotopic data representing the continuation of the beforehand monitoring started in 2012 [1]. The dataset provides a unique opportunity to combine daily meteorological data and stable isotope composition of daily precipitation which can help to improve our understanding of the processes and factors at relatively high resolution that govern δD and δ¹⁸O values of the precipitation. In addition, the dataset can be used as an isotope hydrological benchmark in comparison with stable isotope dataset obtained from surface- and groundwater or other sources (e.g. climate proxies, agricultural products). Thus, research related to isotope hydrology, agriculture, paleoclimate can benefit from this dataset. Interpretation of this dataset focusing on the relationship between meteorological factors and stable isotope composition of precipitation is in progress.

Stable isotope variations of daily precipitation from 2014-2018 in the central United States.

Project description:Stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen (δ2H, δ18O and δ17O) serve as powerful tracers in hydrological investigations. To our knowledge, daily precipitation isotope record especially 17O-excess is rare in the mid-latitudes. To fill such knowledge gap, daily precipitation samples (n=446) were collected from June 2014 to May 2018 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S. A Triple Water Vapor Isotope Analyzer (T-WVIA) based on Off-Axis Integrated Cavity Output Spectroscopy (OA-ICOS) technique was used to concurrently measure precipitation isotopic variations (δ2H, δ18O and δ17O). Meanwhile, 17O-excess and d-excess as second-order isotopic variables were calculated to provide additional information on precipitation formation and transport mechanisms. This study presents a four-year daily precipitation isotope dataset for mid-latitudes, and makes it available to researchers around the world who may use it as a reference for site comparisons and for assessing global hydrological models.

Enriched East Asian oxygen isotope of precipitation indicates reduced summer seasonality in regional climate and westerlies.

Project description:Speleothem oxygen isotope records over East Asia reveal apparently large and rapid paleoclimate changes over the last several hundred thousand years. However, what the isotopic variation actually represent in terms of the regional climate and circulation is debated. We present an answer that emerges from an analysis of the interannual variation in amount-weighted annual ?18O of precipitation over East Asia as simulated by an isotope-enabled model constrained by large-scale atmospheric reanalysis fields. 18O-enriched years have reduced summer seasonality both in terms of precipitation isotopes and in the large-scale circulation. Changes occur between June and October, where the ?18O of precipitation (?18Op) transitions from the isotopically heavier winter to the lighter summer regime. For 18O-enriched years, this transition is less pronounced. Variations in precipitation amount alone are insufficient to explain the amount-weighted annual ?18Op between 18O-enriched and 18O-depleted years. Reduced summer seasonality is also expressed in the low-level monsoonal southerlies and upper-level westerlies; for the latter, the northward migration across the Tibetan Plateau in the summer is less pronounced. Our result thus implicates the westerlies across the plateau as the proximate cause of East Asian paleomonsoon changes, manifested as a modulation of its summer peak.

Atmospheric aerosol growth rates at different background station types.

Project description:Highly time-resolved particle number size distributions (PNSDs) were evaluated during 5 years (2013-2017) at four background stations in the Czech Republic located in different types of environments-urban background (Ústí nad Labem), industrial background (Lom), agricultural background (National Atmospheric Observatory Košetice), and suburban background (Prague-Suchdol). The PNSD data was used for new particle formation event determination as well as growth rate (GR) and condensation sink (CS) calculations. The differences or similarities of these parameters were evaluated from perspectives of the different pollution load, meteorological condition, and regional or long-range transport. The median growth rate (4 nm h-1) is very similar at all stations, and the most frequent length of growth lasted between 2 and 4 h. Condensation sink reflects the pollution load at the individual station and their connection to the environment type. The highest median, CS = 1.34 × 10-2 s-1, was recorded at the urban station (Ústí nad Labem), and the lowest (CS = 0.85 × 10-2 s-1) was recorded at the agricultural station (National Atmospheric Observatory Košetice). Conditional probability function polar plots illustrate the influence of source location to GR. These primary potential emission sources involve traffic, operation of a power plant, and domestic heating.

Uranium isotope fractionation by abiotic reductive precipitation.

Project description:Significant uranium (U) isotope fractionation has been observed during abiotic reduction of aqueous U, counter to the expectation that uranium isotopes are only fractionated by bioassociated enzymatic reduction. In our experiments, aqueous U is removed from solution by reductive precipitation onto the surfaces of synthetic iron monosulfide. The magnitude of uranium isotopic fractionation increases with decreasing aqueous U removal rate and with increasing amounts of neutrally charged aqueous Ca-U-CO3 species. Our discovery means that abiotic U isotope fractionation likely occurs in any reducing environment with aqueous Ca ≥ 1 mM, and that the magnitude of isotopic fractionation changes in response to changes in aqueous major ion concentrations that affect U speciation. Our results have implications for the study of anoxia in the ancient oceans and other environments.

Impact of Social, Economic, and Healthcare Factors on the Regional Structure of Antibiotic Consumption in Primary Care in Poland (2013-2017).

Project description:Antibiotic resistance is one of the most important public health threats worldwide. Antimicrobial misuse and overuse are well-recognized risk factors for the resistance emergence and spread. Monitoring of antibiotic consumption (AC) is an important element in strategies to combat antibiotic resistance. As a result of AC surveillance in Poland, regional differences in AC levels were observed. This study aimed to characterize the regional AC in the period 2013-2017 in primary care in Poland and to assess the possible determinants that influence the AC at the regional level. The study analyzed relationships between AC and its factors (grouped in three different categories: demographic, economic, and related to the organization of healthcare). Data covered AC in primary care in 5 years period (2013-2017) from all 16 Polish voivodeships. The AC primary care data were sales data, expressed in defined daily doses (DDD) according to the WHO methodology. The yearly data on demographic, economic, and related healthcare factors were downloaded from the Central Statistical Office of Poland. Standard statistical parameters were used to characterize the AC. Non-standardized regression coefficients were used to estimate the quantitative dependence of variables. The strongest correlation was demonstrated with factors related to employment, female reproductive activity, mobility of the population, the number of outpatient consultations, and the number of dentists. A correlation was also found between population mobility and density. Recognized risk factors for increased AC should be a priority for interventions implementing and disseminating rational antibiotic policy.

Superstatistical distribution of daily precipitation extremes: A worldwide assessment.

Project description:Maximum annual daily precipitation is a fundamental hydrologic variable that does not attain asymptotic conditions. Thus the classical extreme value theory (i.e., the Fisher-Tippett's theorem) does not apply and the recurrent use of the Generalized Extreme Value distribution (GEV) to estimate precipitation quantiles for structural-design purposes could be inappropriate. In order to address this issue, we first determine the exact distribution of maximum annual daily precipitation starting from a Markov chain and in a closed analytical form under the hypothesis of stochastic independence. As a second step, we formulate a superstatistics conjecture of daily precipitation, meaning that we assume that the parameters of this exact distribution vary from a year to another according to probability distributions, which is supported by empirical evidence. We test this conjecture using the world GHCN database to perform a worldwide assessment of this superstatistical distribution of daily precipitation extremes. The performances of the superstatistical distribution and the GEV are tested against data using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic. By considering the issue of model's extrapolation, that is, the evaluation of the estimated model against data not used in calibration, we show that the superstatistical distribution provides more robust estimations than the GEV, which tends to underestimate (7-13%) the quantile associated to the largest cumulative frequency. The superstatistical distribution, on the other hand, tends to overestimate (10-14%) this quantile, which is a safer option for hydraulic design. The parameters of the proposed superstatistical distribution are made available for all 20,561 worldwide sites considered in this work.

Anthropogenic fingerprints in daily precipitation revealed by deep learning.

Project description:According to twenty-first century climate-model projections, greenhouse warming will intensify rainfall variability and extremes across the globe1-4. However, verifying this prediction using observations has remained a substantial challenge owing to large natural rainfall fluctuations at regional scales3,4. Here we show that deep learning successfully detects the emerging climate-change signals in daily precipitation fields during the observed record. We trained a convolutional neural network (CNN)5 with daily precipitation fields and annual global mean surface air temperature data obtained from an ensemble of present-day and future climate-model simulations6. After applying the algorithm to the observational record, we found that the daily precipitation data represented an excellent predictor for the observed planetary warming, as they showed a clear deviation from natural variability since the mid-2010s. Furthermore, we analysed the deep-learning model with an explainable framework and observed that the precipitation variability of the weather timescale (period less than 10 days) over the tropical eastern Pacific and mid-latitude storm-track regions was most sensitive to anthropogenic warming. Our results highlight that, although the long-term shifts in annual mean precipitation remain indiscernible from the natural background variability, the impact of global warming on daily hydrological fluctuations has already emerged.

HYADES - A Global Archive of Annual Maxima Daily Precipitation.

Project description:Time series of annual maxima daily precipitation are crucial for understanding extreme precipitation behavior and its shifts toward nonstationarity with global warming. Extreme precipitation insight assists hydraulic infrastructure design, water resource management, natural hazard prevention, and climate change adaptation. However, not even a third of the records are of sufficient length, and the number of active stations keeps decreasing. Herein, we present HYADES: archive of yearly maxima of daily precipitation records, a global dataset derived from the Global Historical Climatology Network database of daily records (GHCN-Daily). The HYADES dataset contains records from 39 206 stations (heterogeneously distributed worldwide) with record lengths varying from 16 to 200 years between 1805 and 2023. HYADES was extracted through a methodology designed to accurately capture the true maxima even in the presence of missing values within the records. The method's thresholds were determined and evaluated through Monte Carlo simulations. Our approach demonstrates a 96.73% success rate in detecting the true maxima while preserving time series statistical properties of interest (L-moments and temporal monotonic trend).

Different dynamics of Usutu virus infections in Austria and Hungary, 2017-2018.

Project description:Usutu virus (USUV), a mosquito-borne flavivirus closely related to West Nile virus, emerged in Austria in 2001, when it caused a considerable mass-mortality of Eurasian blackbirds. Cases in birds increased until 2003 and quickly declined thereafter, presumably due to developing herd immunity. Since 2006, no further cases were recorded, until two blackbirds were tested positive in 2016. In Hungary, USUV first appeared in 2005 and has caused only sporadic infections since then. Initially, the only genetic USUV lineage found across both countries was Europe 1. This changed in 2015/2016, when Europe 2 emerged, which has since then become the prevalent lineage. Due to dispersal of these strains and introduction of new genetic lineages, USUV infections are now widespread across Europe. In 2009, the first cases of USUV-related encephalitis were described in humans, and the virus has been frequently detected in blood donations since 2016. To monitor USUV infections among the Austrian wild bird population in 2017/2018, 86 samples were investigated by RT-PCR. In 67 of them, USUV nucleic acid was detected (17 in 2017, 50 in 2018). The majority of succumbed birds were blackbirds, found in Vienna and Lower Austria. However, the virus also spread westwards to Upper Austria and southwards to Styria and Carinthia. In Hungary, 253 wild birds were examined, but only six of them were infected with USUV (five in 2017, one in 2018). Thus, in contrast to the considerable increase in USUV-associated bird mortality in Austria, the number of infections in Hungary declined after a peak in 2016. Except for one case of USUV lineage Africa 3 in Austria in 2017, Europe 2 remains the most prevalent genetic lineage in both countries. Since USUV transmission largely depends on temperature, which affects vector populations, climate change may cause more frequent USUV outbreaks in the future.

Precipitation isotope time series predictions from machine learning applied in Europe.

Project description:Hydrogen and oxygen isotope values of precipitation are critically important quantities for applications in Earth, environmental, and biological sciences. However, direct measurements are not available at every location and time, and existing precipitation isotope models are often not sufficiently accurate for examining features such as long-term trends or interannual variability. This can limit applications that seek to use these values to identify the source history of water or to understand the hydrological or meteorological processes that determine these values. We developed a framework using machine learning to calculate isotope time series at monthly resolution using available climate and location data in order to improve precipitation isotope model predictions. Predictions from this model are currently available for any location in Europe for the past 70 y (1950-2019), which is the period for which all climate data used as predictor variables are available. This approach facilitates simple, user-friendly predictions of precipitation isotope time series that can be generated on demand and are accurate enough to be used for exploration of interannual and long-term variability in both hydrogen and oxygen isotopic systems. These predictions provide important isotope input variables for ecological and hydrological applications, as well as powerful targets for paleoclimate proxy calibration, and they can serve as resources for probing historic patterns in the isotopic composition of precipitation with a high level of meteorological accuracy. Predictions from our modeling framework, Piso.AI, are available at https://isotope.bot.unibas.ch/PisoAI/.
