An Evaluation of WRF‐Chem's Performance in Simulating PM2.5 in West African Cities

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract West Africa experiences some of the highest particulate pollution levels globally due to Saharan dust, biomass burning and urban emissions. Despite the severe health burden, air quality monitoring remains sparse. This study evaluates WRF‐Chem's performance in simulating PM2.5 levels across seven West African cities in 2021 using newly ...

Making a Dust Source Map: Can We Build, Implement, and Learn From a Reflectance Derived Sediment Supply Map in the Unified Forecast System (UFS)?

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Mineral dust is an important part of the climate system we live in. Dust hotspots in deserts and arid regions emit tons of dust annually, influenced by local meteorology and soil characteristics. As one of the most abundant aerosols, it is important to characterize and define the climate and human impacts of dust.

Addressing Parental Supply of Alcohol to Teens: Development and Message Testing of the Keep Their Future Bright Campaign

Health Promotion Journal of Australia, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Issue Addressed Due to potential harm to the developing brain, alcohol is not recommended before age 18, even in small quantities. With parents being a key source of alcohol supply to their teenagers, changing parental attitudes towards underage drinking is key to reducing alcohol‐related harm in young people.

Downregulation of Organ‐Derived Activin A Attenuates Muscle Atrophy and Intramuscular Fat Infiltration in Cancer Cachexia Mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cancer cachexia is a multifactorial wasting syndrome marked by profound skeletal muscle loss. Tumours can release high levels of Activin A (ActA), which activates the ubiquitin‐proteasome pathway (UPP) and drives muscle wasting.

Dust‐Induced Losses in Solar Photovoltaic Potential and Their Long‐Term Changes Over North Africa

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract North Africa (NA) offers exceptional potential for large‐scale solar photovoltaic (PV) deployment to mitigate climate change. Dust aerosols, however, pose a barrier to PV performance by dimming sunlight dimming effect (DE) and settling on panels soiling effect (SE), yet their relative roles across NA's diverse climate zones remain unclear ...

Distress, Discomfort and Moral Injury: Emergency Department Clinicians Experiences Caring for People With a Psychosocial Disability and a National Disability Insurance Scheme Plan

International Journal of Mental Health Nursing, Volume 35, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT People with a psychosocial disability (PSD) and a National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) plan may at times require emergency care. This study aimed to gather evidence of current practice and experiences from the perspective of emergency department clinicians that care for people with a PSD and an NDIS plan. A national anonymous survey was

From Single‐Cell Clusters to Causality: ITCH Engagement for CKD Uncovered by Integrative Analysis of MR and MAGMA

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates an integrative analysis of single‐cell RNA‐seq data in CKD. DEGs were subsequently identified as candidate genes via Mendelian randomization analysis and combined with MAGMA analysis, ITCH was identified as a key gene.
