Emergence of Uncompensable Heat Stress During Monsoon Season in India
Abstract Uncompensable heat stress (UHS), characterized by the loss of homeostasis due to excessive environmental thermal loading, causes substantial heat‐related health risks in India. However, the spatial and seasonal heterogeneity, as well as temporal changes of UHS in India remain poorly understood.

Iron Fertilization of the North Pacific Did Not Drive Long‐Term Pliocene to Quaternary Cooling
Abstract While several hypotheses exist to explain the development of large‐scale perennial Northern Hemisphere ice sheets in the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene, the prevailing view is that a decline in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) drove this substantial change in late Neogene climate.

Autogenic Shoreline Migration and Its Effect on the Storage of Carbon in Marginal Marine Successions
Abstract The accumulation of organic matter (OM) near shorelines, known as blue carbon, is a key sink in the global carbon cycle. This accumulation is influenced by elevation relative to sea level of the delta‐top, which changes through the movement of shorelines with time.

Geo-engineering using dust grains in heliotropic elliptical orbits
This paper examines the concept of a Saturn-like Earth ring comprised of dust grains to offset global warming. A new family of non-Keplerian periodic orbits, under the effects of solar radiation pressure and the Earth’s oblateness J2 perturbation, is ...

Widespread Impact‐Induced Crustal Permeability on the Early Earth
Abstract The early Earth (i.e., Archean and Hadean Eons, 2.5–4.0 and 4.0–4.5 Ga, respectively) experienced frequent cosmic bombardment. Impacts have been shown to stimulate crustal alteration, for instance via hydrothermal systems active for up to millions of years post‐impact.

Seasonal Ice Dynamics Control the Timing of Crevasse Drainage at a Fast‐Flowing Outlet Glacier
Abstract Crevasse field drainage transfers at least half of the seasonal runoff from the surface to the bed of the Greenland Ice Sheet, but the patterns of drainage are complex and spatio‐temporally heterogenous. To better understand controls on crevasse drainage processes, we use an automated deep learning method to map the seasonal filling and ...

Mapping Quartz and Feldspar Areal Abundance and Grain Sizes Using Integrated VTIR Data
Abstract Mineral dust is sourced from arid regions around the globe, and its composition impacts regional and global environments by affecting radiation balance, cloud formation, nutrient deposition, and snowmelt. As such, mineral dust plays a key role in Earth's energy and biogeochemical budgets.

Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon has exhibited a pronounced Northwest India‐Indo‐Gangetic Plains rainfall dipole since 1999, with northwest India experiencing a 24.6% increase, while rainfall in the Indo‐Gangetic Plain has decreased by 4.4%.

Abstract The afternoon detached auroral arc is an important phenomenon in the subauroral region, reflecting coupling processes between the Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere. Previous studies have not identified fine‐scale structures in such arcs, leaving the dynamics underlying their formation poorly understood.
