Pathway to low-carbon arctic shipping: carbon tax thresholds and market equilibrium under climate change

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Global maritime trade faces the dual challenges of climate change and the low-carbon transition. The melting of Arctic sea ice is enabling the Northeast Passage to emerge as a potential alternative to the Suez Canal Route, while carbon pricing policies ...

The Mediterranean Extreme Events Experiment and storm Harry in January 2026

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This article introduces the Mediterranean Extreme Events Experiment (M3E) – a new project consisting of partners from Europe and the United States – whose main objective is to improve the weather forecasting of extreme events in the Mediterranean region via the deployment of drifting buoys with barometers (shown).

The Challenges of Environmental Governance in the Arctic Shipping Route Under the Heavy Oil Ban and China’s Response

open access: yesHaiyang Kaifa yu guanli
As global temperatures continue to rise, the accelerated melting of Arctic ice has made the Arctic shipping routes increasingly viable for commercial navigation, bringing growing attention to environmental protection issues in the region. Heavy fuel oil (

Satellite radiance observation error inflation and spatial thinning: Reconciling idealized theory with near‐operational applications

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Satellite radiance observations are spatially thinned using a grid‐based selection that retains one representative profile per cell. When observation errors are spatially correlated but treated as uncorrelated in the assimilation system, reducing thinning increases their influence, leading to overfitting and reduced analysis fit with other observations.

Arctic shipping under global change: A case study of offshore oil exports

open access: yesTransportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
We explore impacts of sea ice thinning and evolutions in the energy sector on future use of the Northern Sea Route (NSR) versus the Suez Canal Route (SCR), using a case study of shipping oil extracted from the offshore Russian Arctic to China. We combine

Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

The Application of Autonomous Fixed‐Wing Drones in the Sub‐Antarctic Operating Beyond Visual Line of Sight to Enable Large Area, Multi‐Species Population Monitoring in a Changing Environment

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...

Advancing SDG7–SDG13 Through Technology Innovation: The Environmental Impacts of Technological Advancements in Green, Fossil, and Energy Efficiency in Türkiye

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identifying the principal drivers of carbon emissions is vital for designing effective mitigation strategies and supporting long‐term environmental sustainability. Although previous studies have explored multiple determinants of emissions, limited attention has been paid to the most influential energy–technology channels within trade‐dependent

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...
