Hailfall in a future climate using a pseudo-global warming approach
… change, this study uses a pseudo-global warming (PGW) approach to simulate seven different historic hailstorms in their historical environments and again in PGW environments obtained from five different CMIP5 members. Changes in large-scale environmental parameters were generally found to be …

“If it happened in…” a pseudo-global warming assessment of tropical cyclone tornadoes
… conducted using a “pseudo-global” warming (PGW) approach, which allows for an assessment of impacts of climate changes on specific weather and climate events. The PGW simulations involve future climate conditions over the late (2080-2090) 21st century period under RCP 8.5, using the …

Polyphase deformation and metamorphism in the Penobscot Bay Area, Coastal Maine
… at the eastern margin of the Passagassawakeag (PGW) terrane and the Silurian (?) to Devonian (?) Bucksport Formation of the adjacent Bucksport terrane, shared a common history of four phases of ductile deformation (D₁, D₂, D₃, and D₄) and interdeformational metamorphism and granitic plutonism. …

Extreme landfalling atmospheric river events in Arizona: possible future changes
… ARs affecting Arizona, a pseudo-global warming (PGW) method was used. High-resolution control and future simulations of five intense historical AR events that affected the Salt and Verde River basin in Central Arizona were carried out. Control simulations realistically captured the magnitude and …

Impact of the American Diet on Newly-Arrived International Students during their first three months at Virginia Tech
… (V3) (p=0.0082), Participants who gained weight (PGW; n=10) had an average increase by 9 lbs. Country wise, Chinese had a statistically significant average increase in their weights by 4.16 lbs (p=0.0077) whereas, Indians and Germans had an average increase by 2.36 lbs and 1.28 lbs respectively. …

Investigating Atmospheric River Precipitation and Associated Snowpack Characteristics Under a Future Warmer Climate Scenario: Case Studies from the Eastern Sierra Nevada near Donner Summit, California
… study area. The pseudo-global warming method (PGW) was utilized to study how five recent ARs could manifest meteorologically at the surface under IPCC RCP8.5 near the end of the 21st century. Projected changes include increasing variability in AR precipitation, warmer near-surface temperatures, …

Probes of cosmic inflation: from the CMB to quantum analogues
… imprint of primordial gravitational waves (PGW) on large scales. The Simons Observatory (SO), a new ground-based CMB experiment, is targeting these B-modes with unprecedented sensitivity. Realizing the full potential of this high-precision instrument requires mitigating polarized Galactic …

Climate Change and the Sea Breeze in the North Carolina Coast
… simulations utilized the pseudo-global warming (PGW) approach, which involves rerunning current climate SB simulations using modified thermodynamic initial conditions that represent a warmer, late 21st century climate. The 88 SB events that were detected between 2009-2012 were nearly evenly …
