Assessing Cloud and Precipitation Properties on Temporal Scales Using LASSO Simulations Over the ARM Eastern North Atlantic (ENA) Site

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The representation of low clouds and precipitation remains a major source of uncertainty in Earth System Models (ESMs), particularly due to challenges in representing their sub‐grid variability and scale‐dependent sampling. This study evaluates the performance of preliminary simulations from the Large‐Eddy Simulation (LES) Atmospheric ...

The Ceiling Height of Wildland Fire Plumes in Quasi‐Steady Stratified and Sheared Boundary Layers

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Radar observations from a prescribed fire experiment reveal a large‐scale, billow‐like vorticity structure associated with the plume head near the onset of plume bending. This bending limits the vertical extent of the plume and defines the characteristic plume ceiling height.

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

Reassessing Alpine Permafrost Thermal State by Accounting for Ground Ice

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Permafrost thermal state, representing the stored “cold energy” in the ground, is crucial for assessing permafrost changes. However, the conventional metric, mean annual ground temperature (MAGT), has inherent limitations because it overlooks the thermodynamic contribution of ground ice.

Constraining the Permeability and Outer‐Rise Hydration at the Central America Margin

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Subduction zones are important drivers of Earth's geochemical evolution; the presence of water within the subduction system has substantial implications for geohazards, including the style of seismicity and the volume of magma generated at arc volcanoes.
