Post‐Acquisition Image‐Based Localization for High Resolution Thermal and Visible/Shortwave Infrared Images With Application to the Lunar Trailblazer Mission

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The Lunar Trailblazer mission aimed to assess the presence of water on the lunar surface using imaging spectroscopy in visible shortwave infrared (VSWIR) coupled with high‐resolution multispectral imaging in thermal midwave‐infrared (MWIR), captured simultaneously over the same target from orbit around the Moon with two different instruments ...

Translating Critical Zone Science Into Broader Societal Impacts: Case Studies of STEM Education and Community Engagement

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Broader societal impacts (BSI) have become a key criterion in federally funded scientific research projects. However, challenges persist in designing, implementing, and evaluating initiatives that meaningfully link scientific discovery with education and community benefit.

Influence of Inherited Rifted Margin Architecture on Continental Collision Dynamics

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Continental collision is a key process in lithospheric evolution, driving mountain building, crustal thickening, and supercontinent assembly. Within the Wilson cycle, collision marks the final stage following rifting, ocean spreading, and subduction.

Ediacara Obscura: Unveiling Hidden Magnetisations in the Fen Complex, Southern Norway

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Paleomagnetic directions found in Ediacaran (635–539 Ma) rocks are widely dispersed, which has led to conflicting hypotheses about tectonic regimes and geomagnetic field behavior during this period, and raised doubts about the fidelity of the paleomagnetic record.

WACCM‐X Simulation of the Atmosphere From 1950 Through 2024 at an Hourly Resolution

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Modeling of the upper atmosphere, namely the thermosphere and ionosphere, is becoming important for applications such as orbital propagation (including satellite collision avoidance), radio propagation for communications, radar and position, navigation and timing.

High‐Latitude Zonal Jets in the Martian Upper Atmosphere Driven by Non‐Orographic Gravity Waves

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We investigate thermosphere responses to non‐orographic gravity waves (GWs) using wind measurements from the Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer onboard the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN mission, alongside simulations from the Mars Planetary Climate Model. We focus on zonal jets in high‐latitude regions of the upper atmosphere.

Transport of Water in a Transient, Impact‐Generated Atmosphere on Mercury

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mercury's polar cold traps host water ice deposits that are likely populated with impact‐delivered water via Mercury's exosphere. However, Mercury's near‐sun location experiences an extremely high photodestruction rate that rapidly destroys water with a timescale of only ∼3.5 hr.
