The Arctic Coastal Erosion Model: Overview, Developments, and Calibration at Drew Point, Alaska
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Permafrost coastlines are experiencing significant erosion as polar amplification has enhanced the effects of climate change in the Arctic. Warmer temperatures are increasing thermo‐denudation and more energetic oceans are increasing thermo‐abrasion in unlithified, ice‐bonded permafrost coastlines which comprise at least 40% of the circum ...

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Ornamental plants, including barrier or hedge plants, are important in horticulture. Occurring at the urban to natural barrier, plants are often conflict of interest species. Here, we study the invading ornamental barrier plant Metrosideros excelsa Soland ex Gaertn.

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War
Anthropology of Consciousness, Volume 37, Issue 1, Spring 2026.ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the

Retrogressive Thaw Slumps Produce a Changing Disturbance Regime for Arctic Stream Invertebrates
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.Climate change is causing permafrost to thaw, resulting in the formation of large craters in the ground called thaw slumps, which deposit sediments and nutrients into rivers and continually impact stream ecosystems over time. We returned to slump impacted streams 10 years after an initial sample period and found that slumps permanently change streams ...

Pleistocene Smoothing and Resurfacing of Appalachian Ridgelines by Periglaciation
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.Abstract Pleistocene cold periods created widespread periglacial conditions across mid‐latitudes, but isolating their geomorphic impact from modern climate, tectonics, and rock strength is challenging. We studied Appalachian (Eastern U.S.) ridgelines across a paleoclimate gradient, controlling for bedrock and structure, to test if colder periglacial ...

Possible recent and ancient glacial ice flow in the south polar region of Mars [PDF]
Martian polar science began almost as soon as small telescopes were trained on the planet. The seasonal expansion and contraction of the polar caps and their high albedoes led most astronomers to think that water ice is the dominant constituent.
