Do Forest Fires and Land Degradation Undermine Environmental Sustainability? Evidence From China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11598-11612, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Forest fires (FFs), land degradation (LD), and ineffective land use reduce carbon sinks, disrupt ecosystems, and increase greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, creating challenges for environmental sustainability (ES). Addressing these challenges through targeted green investments (GIs) and effective land reforms (LRs) aligns with sustainable ...

Toward an Improved Understanding of the Antarctic Coastal Zone and Its Contribution to Future Global Sea Level

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...
