Thermodynamic Control of Global Seasonal Snow Decline
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Seasonal snowfall is declining globally, yet the relative roles of precipitation variability versus warming‐induced phase transitions remain poorly quantified. We develop a physically based attribution framework that decomposes snowfall trends (1983–2023) into hydrological (precipitation‐driven) and thermodynamic (phase‐driven) components ...

Impact Craters Reveal a Deeper Rock‐Poor Regolith in the Lunar Highlands
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract The only measurements of the highlands regolith occurred at the Apollo 14 and 16 landing sites, finding 10–15 m thick regolith; however, we show that the Apollo landing sites are anomalous due to their proximity to rare, highlands rocky craters and because they landed atop basin ejecta. Through observations of rocky crater populations, we show

Role of Shortwave Feedback in Non‐Linear Response to CO2 Forcing in GFDL CM4.0
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Effective climate sensitivity (EffCS) is a key metric for quantifying climate change, yet its uncertainty remains large, primarily due to intermodel differences in cloud feedback. Here, we assess EffCS and climate feedback to an abrupt doubling (2xCO2) and quadrupling (4xCO2) of CO2 over 450 years in GFDL CM4.0. Both runs have comparable EffCS

Glacier‐Climate Feedbacks Modulate Last Glacial Maximum Dust Cycle Over the Third Pole
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Geological records indicate only a modest Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) increase in dust deposition over the Third Pole (TP), in contrast to the order‐of‐magnitude rise at high latitudes. Existing climate simulations, which generally prescribe present‐day or no TP glaciers, have struggled to reproduce this muted response.

Does Polar Warming Asymmetry Exist in Bathy‐Planet Experiments?
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.Abstract Ocean bathymetry and continental geometry shape ocean circulation, but whether these geographic constraints can sustain polar warming asymmetry in a fully coupled climate system remains unclear. Here we construct a fully coupled “bathy‐planet” configuration (BATHY), in which continental topography is removed and most land surfaces are replaced
