Testing the Strength of Buried Surface Hoar Weak Layers Under Combined Compression and Shear Loading

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract We experimentally determined the multiaxial strength of weak layers of buried surface hoar using displacement‐controlled tests under combined normal and shear loading on a custom testing machine. We tested 63 samples from three different weak layers, with strengths ranging from 1 to 10 kPa with considerable scattering. While shear strength was

Cloud and ice in the planetary scale circulation and in climate [PDF]

The roles of the cryosphere, and of cloud-radiative interactions are investigated. The effects clouds and ice have in the climate system are examined.

Mass Addition to Timpanogos Rock Glacier: Debris‐Covered Snow and the Importance of Interannual Variability in Headwall Erosion and Climate

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The processes of ice incorporation into rock glaciers have been difficult to quantify in both permafrost and non‐permafrost conditions. Here, we develop a numerical model that regardless of the presence of permafrost, reveals how debris eroded from hillslopes and deposited on snow can add ice mass to rock glaciers in pulses.

Observations of Coherence Changes in C‐Band SAR Linked to Snow Thermodynamics and Wind Redistribution on First‐Year Sea Ice

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract We present novel observations of C‐band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) coherence sensitivities and patterns for snow on first‐year sea ice (FYI) consistent with snow thermodynamics and wind redistribution. Wintertime SAR coherence and backscatter change observations of landfast FYI in Dease Strait, Nunavut, Canada are made using 12‐day repeat ...

A Physics‐Informed Neural Network Approach to the Gannon Storm

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Extreme geomagnetic storms, such as the May 2024 Gannon event, pose significant risks to technological infrastructure, requiring robust forecasting models. Here, we apply Physics‐Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to the Burton equation to model the storm's ring current dynamics by studying the temporal evolution of the SuperMAG SMR index during

Dissolved Black Carbon in North Cascades Snow, Meltwater and a Downstream River

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Quantification of black carbon on snow in the Cascade Range is needed due to increasing wildfire intensity and frequency. Here, the benzenepolycarboxylic acid (BPCA) molecular method was used to measure dissolved black carbon (DBC) in snow, nearby rivers, streams, and supraglacial melt collected in 2022 and 2023 from Mount Baker and Mount ...

Improving Air Quality Simulations in California's San Joaquin Valley Using Land Surface Remote Sensing

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Accurate regional air quality modeling is crucial for the development of effective air pollution mitigation plans. Precisely simulating meteorological conditions, especially planetary boundary layer (PBL) properties, is challenging due to complex land surface conditions.

Permafrost thaw affects the chemistry of mountain ponds

Environmental Research Letters
Permafrost is warming and thawing due to climate change. Among the related effects, water quality modification has gained increasing attention globally. Nevertheless, the impacts of diffuse permafrost thaw on water chemistry in high-mountain areas remain
