Rapid contemporary shrinking and loss of ice-capped summits in the western United States
Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine ResearchIce-capped summits exist when the highest point of a mountain in late summer comprises ice and snow. For the last century, there have been five ice-capped summits in the contiguous United States, all in Washington State.

Global‐Regional AI Weather Forecasting on a Stretched Cubed Sphere
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Regional weather hazards need local detail but remain constrained by the surrounding global circulation. Current AI weather forecasting mainly relies on globally uniform latitude‐longitude tensors, spherical graphs, or limited‐area models with external boundary forcing.

Persistent Shelf‐to‐Basin Export of Bioavailable Dissolved Organic Carbon in the Arctic Ocean
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Microbial carbon demand often exceeds local primary production in the oligotrophic central Arctic Ocean. Whether shelf‐derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) provides a persistent carbon subsidy to reconcile this imbalance remains unclear. Here, we combine amino acid‐based molecular tracers and hydrographic analyses to trace the transport and ...

Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalaya Under Threat: Climate Change, Cryosphere Hazards, and the Imperative for Regional Cooperation [PDF]
The Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalaya (HKH) often described as the Third Pole because it contains the largest concentration of snow and ice outside the Arctic and Antarctic anchors Asia’s hydrological security by feeding ten major river systems and ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract The Arctic and Tibetan Plateau (TP) have experienced pronounced warming and shifts in precipitation patterns, yet vegetation responses to climate change remain insufficiently understood. Here, we analyze the temperature and precipitation thresholds of limiting gross primary productivity (GPP) of tundra ecosystems in the Arctic and TP from 1982

Consequences of global warming in cryosphere [PDF]
, 2008 Scale of changes of particular components of cryosphere due to global warming is presented. Cryosphere diminishes its spatial extend and the total volume of all kinds of ice is reduced. The Arctic sea ice cover has recently diminished most intensely.

, 1992 This chapter will discuss two main issues related to the cryosphere and climate. One is the effect of sea ice and salinity gradients on ocean circulation, and in particular the possible role of sea ice transport on the ocean conveyer belt.

Observation of the Orientation of Snow Hydrometeors at Sheltered and Unsheltered Sites
Geophysical Research LettersKnowledge about orientation of falling snow is still poorly documented with field measurements despite its importance, for example, in the interpretation of remote sensing data. This study investigates the orientation of snow hydrometeors using data from
