Seasonal Environmental Conditions and River Morphology Shape Summer Phytoplankton Communities
Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Phytoplankton form the base of large river food webs, but there are limited studies on the nature and drivers of communities over longer time scales. Further, climate change is projected to favour taxa associated with harmful algal blooms, but our knowledge of the timing, locations and drivers of cyanobacteria in rivers lags that of lakes and ...

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry. We integrated geodetic and teleseismic observations to investigate its rupture process through finite‐fault kinematic inversions and back ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Inverse grading, where coarse particles overlay finer materials, is common on talus slopes, yet its progressive formation under realistic conditions is rarely quantified. We integrate multi‐year field observations with controlled freeze‐thaw experiments to elucidate the processes driving particle migration that result in inverse grading and ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.Abstract Monitoring small rivers during extreme events is challenging, especially in remote areas. This study assesses the accuracy of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission in characterizing an extreme hydrological event on a narrow river (∼60 m wide), using a landslide‐induced flood on the Chilcotin River (Canada) as a case study.

Asymmetric Changes in the Cooling Capacity of China's Lakes
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.Abstract Lakes significantly influence local climate, yet a systematic assessment of their cooling effect across diverse regions remains limited. This study develops a multi‐metric (spatial extent, magnitude, and efficiency) framework to evaluate the spatiotemporal patterns of Lake Cooling Capacity (LCC) for 265 major Chinese lakes from 1980 to 2022 ...
