Early Climate Impact Assessments Targeted 2025—How Did They Perform for Global Water Resources?

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, Volume 17, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
In 2025, it is possible to assess early climate impact projections. We review the first two global water resource assessments and find: climate variables, snowmelt‐dominated streamflow, and population projections broadly aligned with observations, but water demand projections overestimated increases in withdrawals.

Evolution of Air‐Sea Fluxes in Modeled Long‐Lived Mesoscale Eddies in the South Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale eddies modify physical and biogeochemical properties, facilitating the exchange of heat and CO2 between the surface, mixed‐layer and ocean interior. Most state‐of‐the‐art Earth System Models fail to resolve mesoscale processes O $O$(10–100 km) due to computational constraints, thus contributing to uncertainties in current and future ...

Coral Reef‐Level Upwelling in an Internal Wave Hotspot Modulated by Mesoscale Dynamics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Coral reefs in the northern South China Sea experience some of the world’s most energetic internal waves (IWs), yet records of how these dynamics influence reef‐level conditions are rare. Using over 6 years of temperature data from Dongsha Atoll, we show that IWs drive diel temperature fluctuations that reduce subsurface heat exposure and ...

Definition of ICESat Selection Criteria for their Use as Height References for TanDEM-X [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The TanDEM X satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mission has the goal to deliver a high-precision global digital elevation model (DEM). The X band SAR interferometry (InSAR)-derived DEMs contain absolute and relative height errors that have to be ...

Observation of Daily Flood Hazard During the SWOT Cal/Val Orbit

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Flood peaks can develop and recede within a day, making them difficult to capture with satellites with multi‐day revisit intervals. Here, we exploit daily observations during the Calibration and Validation phase of the SWOT mission to examine a short‐lived flood in May 2023 along the Du Gouffre River in Canada. Despite channel widths below 100

S3MPC: Improvement on Inland Water Tracking and Water Level Monitoring from the OLTC Onboard Sentinel-3 Altimeters

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Sentinel-3A and Sentinel-3B satellites were launched, respectively, on 16 February 2016 and 25 April 2018 as part of the European Copernicus program. The Sentinel-3 Surface Topography Mission makes use of the altimeter instruments onboard Sentinel-3A

Contribution of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation to Global Mean Sea Level Trends: Revisited

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Three decades of satellite altimeter observations reveal a continued rise in global mean sea level (GMSL), with the rate of rise reflecting the combined effects of decadal variability and long‐term warming. By decomposing 30‐year running trends of reconstructed sea level over 1950–2019, we quantify the contribution associated with the Pacific ...
