Discriminating Arid Ecosystems and Tracking Desertification Dynamics: Evidence From Grain‐Size End‐Member in the Manas River Basin, Northern Tianshan Mountains

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10174-10186, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing

Dipole in North African Dust Deposition at the Last Glacial Maximum Explained by Shifted Wind Direction Under Steepened Meridional Temperature Gradients

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Geological records strongly suggest that, globally, Earth's atmosphere was much dustier than present during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) but the explanation is debated, with greater aridity, stronger/gustier winds and less effective washout from a drier atmosphere all invoked. Yet dust deposition can be spatially complex.

INSOLENCE AND POLICY.

open access: yesOxímora: revista internacional d’Ètica i Política, 2013
Insolence has been till now a concept, which wasn’t important for political philosophy. This article reports this absence and describes briefly its history, focusing on phenomena as the jester and the carnival. Afterwards we analyze the current situation of insolence and we discuss the possibility that it could regain the political meaning, which had ...

Projections of Earth's Hottest Surface Temperatures in CMIP6

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Earth's hottest near‐surface air temperatures provide a benchmark for the upper tail of land heat extremes. Using CMIP6 simulations, we evaluate historical extremes against Berkeley Earth and project future changes under SSP2‐4.5 and abrupt‐4 × CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$.

Positive Association Between Coastal Sea Surface Temperatures and Humid Heat Stress on Nearby Land

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Large populations along Earth's coastlines are exposed to climate hazards including extreme humid heat. Considering observed coastal ocean warming and increased coastal marine heatwave (MHW) activity, we seek to uncover if, how, and where coastal ocean temperatures are linked with heat and humidity on land nearby.
