Spectral Characterization of CO2‐H2O Ice Layering Under Controlled Mars Polar Conditions as Laboratory Analogs for Seasonal Cap Activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Seasonal CO2 and H2O ice blanket the Martian polar caps, and their spectral contributions mix during seasonal evolution. Particularly in late northern winter, the spectral signature of H2O ice obscures that of CO2 ice. Using the MARVIN chamber at York University, we produced controlled analogs of layered polar ice under Mars‐like pressure (∼6 ...

Revisiting the Terminology of Offshore Groundwater: From “Freshened” Process Implications to the “Relatively Fresh” State

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Vast sub‐seafloor groundwater reserves are increasingly viewed as strategic resources for a water‐scarce world. However, the emerging standard terminology—“Offshore Freshened Groundwater” (OFG)—presents a semantic challenge for the hydrogeological community.

Fog, Symbiosis, and Survival: The Ecological Architecture of the Grit Crust From the Atacama Desert Represents a Lichen Holobiome Rather Than a Soil Microbiome

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2026.
Multi‐marker metabarcoding (16S rRNA, 18S rRNA, ITS2) of the fog‐dependent grit crust in the Atacama Desert reveals a community structured by lichen symbioses rather than typical soil‐derived microbial assemblages. The green algal photobiont Trebouxia dominates the eukaryotic community, accompanied by lichenized Caliciales and lichen‐associated ...

Satellite Remote Sensing of Alpine Vegetation Dynamics: Challenges and Perspectives

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Satellite greening has become a key tool for monitoring alpine vegetation change, but a positive vegetation‐index trend is not an ecological observation in itself. This perspective shows that interpreting alpine greening requires addressing two sequential challenges: methodological complexity, which can bias trends during image processing, and ...

Unmixing of hyperspectral data by incorporating spectral variability and spatial information

, 2016
Spectral unmixing enables quantitative information on the abundances of cover types to be estimated within each image pixel. Although many spectral unmixing methods have been developed, many of these cannot consider endmember variability, nor do they ...

Anhydrous minerals in asteroid Bennu: Evidence for well‐preserved primordial components

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 963-986, June 2026.
Abstract Aqueously altered carbonaceous astromaterials are dominated by secondary minerals, but a minor fraction of primary, anhydrous silicates and oxides escape alteration, offering insight into the original composition of asteroid parent bodies. We report the mineralogy, petrology, mineral chemistry, and oxygen isotopes of anhydrous minerals—50 ...

Potential of VIS‐IR imaging spectroscopy and SEM‐EDS and EMPA to map the mineralogical composition of NWA 7317 (CR6)

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 1026-1044, June 2026.
Abstract Asteroid compositional analysis relies on comparing reflectance spectra with laboratory data from well‐characterized meteorites. To advance this comparison, we performed a comprehensive laboratory analysis on a slab of the Northwest Africa (NWA) 7317—CR6 carbonaceous chondrite.

Multilayer Simplex-structured Matrix Factorization for Hyperspectral Unmixing with Endmember Variability

Given a hyperspectral image, the problem of hyperspectral unmixing (HU) is to identify the endmembers (or materials) and the abundance (or endmembers' contributions on pixels) that underlie the image. HU can be seen as a matrix factorization problem with

Into the Wild: Farm‐Derived Energy and Nutrients Enter Marine Food Webs With Carrying Capacity Implications for Aquaculture Management

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Microbial mats and thalassinid shrimp: Spatial and geochemical interactions in a modern intertidal environment

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 1001-1029, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This research examines the spatial and geochemical interactions between mat‐forming microorganisms and thalassinid shrimp in an intertidal flat situated on the shores of Willapa Bay, Washington, USA. The study serves as a contemporary analog for the relationships between mats and burrowing organisms in deep time.
