Land surface phenologies and seasonalities using cool earthlight in mid-latitude croplands
Environmental Research Letters, 2013 Phenology deals with timing of biotic phenomena and seasonality concerns temporal patterns of abiotic variables. Studies of land surface phenology (LSP) and land surface seasonality (LSS) have long been limited to visible to near infrared (VNIR ...

Enabling Under Ice Glider Operations: A Backseat Driver Approach
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Polar Oceans are key locations for forcing global ocean circulation, influencing both global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Due to restricted access to these seasonally and perennially ice‐covered regions, these areas are severely undersampled.

Soft Tissue Sarcoma Burden and Research Productivity: Global Patterns and Disparities, 1990–2021
Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare and diverse type of cancer, with a disproportionate incidence and limited global epidemiological studies. This study aims to analyze the long‐term trends and epidemiological features of the global burden of STS from 1990 to 2021 and to reveal the global research productivity on STS.

Roadmap for leveraging satellite data to advance soil moisture monitoring in Mainland Southeast Asia
Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Soil moisture monitoring is vital for Mainland Southeast Asia (MSEA), a region that plays a pivotal role in global agricultural production. Strong reliance on rain‐fed agriculture, combined with frequent hydroclimatic extremes, makes MSEA one of the world's most climate‐sensitive regions.

Global Kilometer‐Scale Climate Storylines Using Spectral Nudging
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Effective climate adaptation benefits from detailed, actionable information on how specific extreme events are influenced by climate change. Here we present the first global, kilometer‐scale coupled modeling framework that enables counterfactual reconstructions of recent weather events, including extremes, in different climates.
