Formulation and Implementation of a Dynamic Roughness Length for Improved Surface Wind Speeds in WRF

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate near‐surface winds from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model are essential for wind‐energy applications, yet persistent biases remain that depend on terrain, season, and land cover. This study develops and evaluates an observation‐informed, time‐varying aerodynamic roughness length for WRF. The roughness length is inferred

Exhumed eo‐Alpine High‐Pressure Rocks Fed Campanian Turbidites in Eastern Sardinia

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the detrital record of the early orogenic evolution of the Sardinia‐Calabria system, preserved in Upper Cretaceous arenites exposed in eastern Sardinia. Sardinia and Corsica form a continental block that includes a segment of the Alpine orogen and of its former foreland basin.

Tracing Continental Basalt Sources and Mantle Processes Using Fe Stable Isotopes

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Iron (Fe) isotopes have emerged as powerful tracers of mantle source heterogeneity and melting processes, yet the mechanisms producing heavy Fe isotope signatures (high δ57Fe values) in intraplate basalts remain debated. Competing interpretations include partial melting of recycled pyroxenite domains versus carbonate‐induced oxidation of a ...

Oxygen Isotopic Composition of Miocene Meteoric Water (δ18Ow) in Alpine Foreland Basins

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The reconstructed stable oxygen isotopic composition of meteoric water (δ18Ow) is widely used for paleoclimate reconstructions. Understanding past environmental factors that drove changes in δ18Ow is essential for interpreting past climate conditions.

Vanadium Isotopic Compositions of the High‐3He/4He Baffin Island Lavas

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The isotopic composition of vanadium (V) in hotspot lavas provides new insight into the source of deep mantle heterogeneities. We measured V isotopic compositions in Paleogene Baffin Island lavas, which erupted above the Iceland plume head, to constrain the mantle plume source. These lavas have V isotopic compositions that are lighter (−0.96 ±

Polytropic Index and Thermodynamic Behavior of the Central Plasma Sheet Near Lunar Distances

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract In addition to making near‐Earth observations, the THEMIS/ARTEMIS mission is uniquely positioned at lunar distance, in the deep magnetotail, reaching distances of 60 RE ${R}_{E}$ and further. This vantage point allows ARTEMIS to access the plasma sheet and measure entropy evolution across convective channels, plasma flow gradients ...

Mars' O+ ${\mathbf{O}}^{+}$ and O2+ ${\mathbf{O}}_{\mathbf{2}}^{+}$ Ion Escape During Disappearing Solar Wind Events

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Disappearing solar wind events (DSWEs), intervals when the solar wind proton density <1 cm−3 ${\text{cm}}^{-3}$, represent one extreme of the Mars solar wind interaction. Using data from NASA's Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission from February 2016 to May 2024, 154 orbits across 90 unique days were identified.

Bow Shock Current Closure Through the Magnetosheath for Non‐Zero IMF By—Results From Hybrid Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The bow shock current (BSC) flows on the bow shock due to the compression of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) across the shock. Although previous studies have shown that the BSC can connect to magnetospheric current systems via the magnetosheath, it is still not known how this happens.

MMS Observations of Multi‐Species Wave‐Particle Interactions and Rapid Foreshock Evolution

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The ion foreshock is the region upstream of Earth's bow shock where magnetic field lines connect to the quasi‐parallel shock surface. Within this region, there exist a variety of backstreaming ion populations from the shock ramp that can generate ultra‐low frequency (ULF) waves through wave‐particle interactions. In this work, we use data from

Excitation of Large Amplitude Compressional ULF Waves in the Magnetosphere by Solar Wind Pressure Spikes and IMF Southward Turning

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract We present a case study of large amplitude, compressional Pc5 waves observed by GOES 13 and 15 at geosynchronous orbit near noon. These waves were excited near the arrival time of two consecutive solar wind dynamic pressure spikes at the magnetopause, the second of which was associated with a large and rapid southward turning of the ...
