Important but Overlooked Reactive Organic Carbon (ROC) Air Pollution From Permafrost Wildfires in Canada

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Canadian permafrost wildfires, characterized by surface flaming and deep organic soil smoldering, emit complex suites of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These emissions include air toxics that pose substantial public health risks and fuel secondary pollution, yet remain understudied.

Impact of Wildfire‐Emitted Black Carbon on Snowmelt Across Western North America

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Wildfires are a major source of black carbon (BC) and their increasing frequency and intensity have enhanced BC deposition onto snowpack across western North America, which accelerates snowmelt and triggers multiple feedbacks that can substantially alter atmospheric composition and regional hydrology. Using the Weather Research and Forecasting

Wildfire Emissions From European Boreal Fuels: Effects of Fuel Type and Moisture Content

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 7, Page 752-770, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing severity of wildfires poses significant challenges through the release of greenhouse gases and other harmful gases and particles. Although field measurements exist, there is a lack of systematic data collection to understand the influence of moisture content on the particle and gas emissions of boreal fuels, particularly for ...

Engineering Safety Through MOFs‐Based Nanocomposites: Advances in Design, Fabrication, and Deployment Across Emerging Domains

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Ensuring uncompromised safety across interconnected domains is vital for global societal sustainability. Metal–organic framework (MOF)‐based nanocomposites, owing to their intrinsically tunable structures and broad functional versatility, represent a powerful class of materials for safety‐related engineering.

Heightened threats to small woodland caribou populations in Canada and key considerations for their persistence Menaces pesant sur les petites populations de caribou des bois au Canada et considérations essentielles à leur rétablissement

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 227, Issue 1, November 2026.
Abstract Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are one of the most iconic wildlife species in Canada. These large ungulates depend on undisturbed, interconnected assemblages of mature and old‐growth conifer forests for survival, and exhibit life‐history traits typical of K‐selected species (i.e., low reproductive rates, long generation times, and slow ...

Smoke signals: Measuring wildlife smoke exposure with animal‐borne and stationary sensors

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3109-3117, November 2026.
Abstract Wildfires are becoming larger, more frequent and more severe, producing smoke plumes that degrade air quality hundreds of kilometres away and for days to weeks after an active fire. Despite public health and safety concerns regarding wildfire smoke, we know little about how free‐ranging wildlife experience or respond to these exposures.

Gender Justice in the Triple Planetary Crisis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 9542-9594, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To identify and report how gender justice is conceptualised and discussed in contemporary health literature in relation to the Triple Planetary Crisis of climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss, with a particular focus on the experiences of women and gender‐diverse populations, and the representation of nurses and other healthcare ...
