People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2828-2846, August 2026.Abstract The local‐scale climate impacts of tropical forests (LCIF), such as reducing temperatures and increasing rainfall, are directly relevant to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Strengthening understanding of these local climate benefits can encourage actions to conserve natural forests, with positive implications for climate resilience ...

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.Industrial wastewater was treated using a membrane bioreactor (MBR) and applied to safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) under drip irrigation conditions with four different irrigation strategies. The agronomic performance, water use efficiency (WUE), and soil salinity dynamics were evaluated to assess the feasibility of reuse of treated wastewater as an

Widespread Increase in Global Plant Water Stress Obscured by Greening
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Understanding the vulnerability of plants to more severe and frequent drought events and developing adaptive management strategies requires robust methods for quantifying long‐term changes in plant water stress (PWS). Most data‐driven explorations of long‐term trends in PWS have focused on alterations in canopy structure (e.g., leaf area index)

Evaluating Fire Indices for Fire Ignition and Spread Rate in the Western United States
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Wildfires are complex events that are challenging to model. Researchers and land managers often rely on fire indices as a proxy of fire risk in operational forecasts and future projections. However, in the scientific literature, the choice of which fire index to use is often arbitrary and not tied to specific fire behaviors. Here, we provide a

The Role of Structural and Transient Compoundness in Advancing Compound Event Characterization
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Compound events, arising from the combinations of multiple interacting underlying physical drivers, have gained increasing attention over the past decade with a wide range of applications, including floods, droughts, and wildfires. This growing body of research has advanced both the conceptual understanding and statistical modeling of compound

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics of vegetation carbon sequestration capacity (VCSC) in Southwest China's contiguous karst region is critical for regional carbon cycling. Using MOD17A3 data from 2001 to 2023, we analyzed spatial heterogeneity in vegetation net primary productivity (NPP) and applied Geodetector to evaluate nonlinear ...

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Rivers are central to the global hydrological cycle, supporting ecosystems and human water use. River discharge, one of the best observed hydrological variables, is expected to change under anthropogenic warming with potentially devastating consequences.

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Reactive nitrogen (Nr) gases (NH3, N2O, and NO) emitted from agricultural fields constitute a substantial portion of the Nr flux from land to the atmosphere. Here, we coupled the Flows of Agricultural Nitrogen (FANv3) with a modified version of the Community Land Model (CLM5.1) to produce a model (CLM‐FANv3) that simulates the emissions of NH3,

Singapore Water Budget: The Past, the Present, and the Future
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Urbanization and climate change profoundly impact hydrological processes and the associated water budget, challenging sustainable water management. In this study, we use a distributed mechanistic ecohydrological model adapted for urban environments to quantify changes in the hydrological budget components in response to urbanization, as well ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Tidal influences are rarely considered in parameter estimation procedures for coastal groundwater flow models. Yet, considering tides adds to the already high computational burden associated with such models due to the presence of density‐dependent flow.
