Abstract Watersheds regulate biogeochemical processes and provide ecosystem services to human societies, but disturbances can fundamentally alter these processes across space and time. Determining when and where to sample to capture disturbance impacts in watersheds remains a central challenge.

Toward Robust Corrections for Stellar Contamination in JWST Exoplanet Transmission Spectra
Transmission spectroscopy is still the preferred characterization technique for exoplanet atmospheres, although it presents unique challenges that translate into characterization bottlenecks when robust mitigation strategies are missing.

In Situ Formation of the Cold Classical Kuiper Belt
Cold classical Kuiper Belt objects (CCKBOs) are considered first-generation planetesimals that formed 42–47 au from the Sun and have remained untouched since. Formation is thought to proceed by clumping of dust particles in protoplanetary disk gas by the

Abstract The rise of quantitative geosciences approaches and accessible computer science tools have led to increasing overlap and opportunity at the boundaries of both fields. The need for both research innovation and student cross‐training has motivated new, interdisciplinary Computer Science‐Geoscience collaborations.

The Edges of Planetary Systems: Falling Off the Kuiper Cliff in a Dissipating Gas Disk
Probably the last planetesimals to have formed from dust in the solar nebula are cold classical Kuiper Belt Objects (CCKBOs). To the extent that they are isolated and unchanged since birth, CCKBOs offer direct insights into nebular processes.

Best Practices in Open and Reproducible Antarctic Marine Sediment Core Research
Abstract Marine sediment cores from Antarctica are archived by national programs for reuse and resampling by future researchers, creating a resourceful way to conduct Antarctic science. With reduced budgets to conduct Antarctic field work and to collect new sediment cores offshore of the icy continent, the accessibility of these archived cores and ...

Asteroid resource map for near-Earth space [PDF]
Most future concepts for the exploration and exploitation of space require a large initial mass in low Earth orbit. Delivering this required mass from the Earth’s surface increases cost due to the large energy input necessary to move mass out of the ...

Michael B McElroy (1939–2026): He Saw the Earth as a Planet
Abstract Michael B. McElroy, the Gilbert Butler Professor of Environmental Studies at Harvard University and a towering figure in atmospheric science whose research spanned from the atmospheres of Mars and Venus to the policy challenges of climate change, died January 8 from cancer. He was 86.

FastIsostasy v1.0 – a regional, accelerated 2D glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) model accounting for the lateral variability of the solid Earth [PDF]
The vast majority of ice-sheet modelling studies rely on simplified representations of the glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), which, among other limitations, do not account for lateral variations in the lithospheric thickness and upper-mantle viscosity.
