Recent Slowing Arctic‐Amplified Warming Drives an Unprecedented Water Recovery in the World's Most Voluminous Freshwater Lake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract The Lake Baikal, containing one‐fifth of Earth's unfrozen surface freshwater, faces increasing hydrological uncertainty under climate change. Its water balance depends on Selenga River inflow and Angara River outflow. We present a 343‐year combined Selenga and Angara streamflow reconstruction using a tree‐ring network to provide a multi ...

Impact of Wildfire‐Emitted Black Carbon on Snowmelt Across Western North America

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Wildfires are a major source of black carbon (BC) and their increasing frequency and intensity have enhanced BC deposition onto snowpack across western North America, which accelerates snowmelt and triggers multiple feedbacks that can substantially alter atmospheric composition and regional hydrology. Using the Weather Research and Forecasting
