Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract A simulation of the 10 May 2024 geomagnetic storm is used to investigate the theory of cross polar cap potential (CPCP) saturation in Earth's magnetosphere‐ionosphere system. THEMIS B (ARTEMIS P1) satellite magnetic field and plasma measurements at lunar distance upstream in the solar wind drives the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) in ...

Colonial origins of agglomeration: Evidence from Malayan rail stations
The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 1, Page 221-246, February 2026.Abstract This study examines how historical rail stations condition long‐run development using Colonial Malaya as a laboratory. By constructing novel historical data on rail stations, agglomeration centres, tin mines, and rubber plantations dating back a century and matching contemporary data on economic activity at the 1‐km cell level, we find that ...

Anthropogenic Heat Release, a Potential Factor Impacting the Climate in the Arctic in Boreal Summer
Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.AHR can affect lower‐troposphere stability in the Arctic, which further affects the low cloud fraction and the surface energy balance. AHR can affect the atmospheric circulation in the Arctic, bringing more water vapor and amplifying the greenhouse effect, which leads to further warming in the Arctic in the boreal summer.
