Abstract As one of the typical midlatitude synoptic‐scale disturbances, extratropical cyclones (ECs) can exert significant impacts on the atmospheric general circulation through its interaction with the time mean flow. Under the background of global warming, the Eurasian continent exhibits evident n...

Abstract The stratosphere is a key link between El Niño and Eurasian surface climate in winter. Instead of the amplitude of the stratospheric response discussed by many previous studies, we focus on the persistence of wintertime extreme El Niño impacts through the stratospheric pathway to midlatitud...

Increasing drought pressure under anthropogenic climate change may jeopardize the potential of tropical forests to capture carbon in woody biomass and act as a long-term carbon dioxide sink. To evaluate this risk, we assessed drought impacts in 483 tree-ring chronologies from across the tropics and ...

Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. is an important medicinal plant. To learn more about properties of this plant, the present study was aimed to evaluate the phytochemical analysis and antioxidant activity of three colours (pink, yellow and white) flower of Chrysanthemum morifolium. Spot phytochemical ...

Abstract In this article, the development of quality factor (Q) boosted switched inductor based on 1:2 transformer is presented. The Q‐boosted switched inductor consists of 1:2 inductor‐loaded transformer and RF switch. The eddy current in the secondary coil, equivalent inductance, and Q‐boosted fac...

Background: Non-invasive respiratory therapies (NIRTs) (high flow nasal cannula and non-invasive ventilation) are widely used in COVID-19 patients who developed acute respiratory failure. However, use of these therapies may delay initiation of invasive mechanical ventilation in some patients and hen...
