The Composition of Dust in Jupiter-Family Comets as Inferred from Infrared Spectroscopy

, 2008
We review the composition of Jupiter-family comet dust as inferred from infrared spectroscopy. We find that Jupiter-family comets have 10 micron silicate emission features with fluxes roughly 20-25% over the dust continuum (emission strength 1.20-1.25 ...

Widespread Impact‐Induced Crustal Permeability on the Early Earth

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
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.

Ground-based Characterization of Hayabusa2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: Constraining Mineralogical Composition in Preparation for Spacecraft Operations

, 2017
Asteroids that are targets of spacecraft missions are interesting because they present us with an opportunity to validate ground-based spectral observations. One such object is near-Earth asteroid (NEA) (162173) Ryugu, which is the target of the Japanese

Missing Summer Westerly Jet Barotropic Governor Effect Explains Climate Models—Observation Discrepancies in the Indian Monsoon Trends

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
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%.

First Observation of Sawtooth‐Like Undulations in Afternoon Detached Auroral Arcs Modulated by Surface Waves at the Plasmaspheric Plume Boundary

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
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.

This is a theoretical work that reinterprets ancient myths from the perspective of space-based planetary engineering and Earth transformation. It attempts to restore the real history of Earth's evolution and early human civilization by establishing logical connections between mythological narratives and large-scale astrophysical events.

Magnetic Rope Is an Electron Selector: Discovery in Space and Conceptual Application to Medicine

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Magnetic rope is a helical structure existing ubiquitously in astrophysical and space plasmas. Such structure has been conventionally known to accelerate electrons, convert energy, and play key roles in driving solar eruptions. Here, in contrast to the conventional concept, we report that the magnetic rope can divert electrons efficiently in ...

Seafloor Sediments, Morphologic Features, and Geotechnical Properties of Harrison Bay in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Sediments on Arctic continental shelves are impacted by sea ice and ice‐related processes for up to 9 months per year. As a result, seabed morphology in cold regions can exhibit features such as ice scours which are absent on lower‐latitude shelves.

Climatic Higher‐Order Balanced Winds Beyond Geostrophic and Gradient Wind Fields

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We present a novel approach to derive three‐dimensional Climatic Higher‐Order Balanced (CHOB) wind fields from thermodynamic state variables in the free troposphere and stratosphere. The CHOB method is developed for monthly synoptic‐scale wind field estimation, utilizing commonly used balanced winds (geostrophic and gradient wind) enhanced by ...
