New study reveals, how foreshock waves interact with Earth’s magnetosphere. Foreshock waves are able to tune the shock, making it alternatively stronger or weaker. These waves could only be detected in a narrow region behind the shock. (Image: Lucile Turc)

Summer precipitation and black carbon emission characteristics. a The spatial pattern of summer precipitation using the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) dataset overlain with summer 500 hPa wind fields for the period 2001–2016, using the ERA-Interim dataset over the Tibetan plateau (TP) and South Asia (denoted by red polygon). NTP and STP delineate the northern and southern Tibetan plateau boundaries.
