Momentum Decoupling Drives Low‐Wind Events During Heatwaves in China: A Hybrid Explainable Machine Learning and Dynamical Modeling Approach

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Compound heatwave and low‐wind (HW‐LW) events increasingly threaten China's energy security. Analysis of 2000–2023 data reveals these compound extremes account for 18.5% of total heatwaves, with their annual frequencies nearly doubling in recent years.

Impacts of Future Oil Palm Expansion on Carbon and Hydrological Fluxes Across the Tropics

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Future oil palm expansion could substantially alter tropical carbon and water cycles, but its regional impacts remain unclear. Using CLM5‐palm, we simulate large‐scale oil palm expansion from 2023 to 2100 in Southeast Asia, Africa and the Amazon.

Seismic Tremor as a Precursor to Hydrothermal Explosions Near Mutnovsky Volcano (Kamchatka)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Mutnovsky Volcano, ∼70 km SW of Petropavlovsk‐Kamchatsky, exhibits persistent degassing, hosts active hydrothermal springs and the Mutnovsky Geothermal Power Plant (MGPP) on its slopes. Using the network covariance matrix approach, we analyzed seismic data recorded in 2023–2024 by 15 seismic stations operating around Mutnovsky Volcano.

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9126-9143, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

Assessing Fire‐Induced Permafrost Ground Deformation and Environmental Drivers Using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar and Machine Learning

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Arctic fires in permafrost landscapes have become more frequent in recent years with record fire years in Eastern Siberia in 2019, 2020 and 2021. The consumption of organic layer and charring of the landscape can deepen active layer and long‐term permafrost ground deformation.

Annual Seasonality Extraction Using the Cubic Spline Function and Decadal Trend in Temporal Daytime MODIS LST Data

Remote Sensing, 2017
Examining climate-related satellite data that strongly relate to seasonal phenomena requires appropriate methods for detecting the seasonality to accommodate different temporal resolutions, high signal variability and consecutive missing values in the ...

Formulation and Implementation of a Dynamic Roughness Length for Improved Surface Wind Speeds in WRF

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate near‐surface winds from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model are essential for wind‐energy applications, yet persistent biases remain that depend on terrain, season, and land cover. This study develops and evaluates an observation‐informed, time‐varying aerodynamic roughness length for WRF. The roughness length is inferred

Land Cover Types Drive the Surface Temperature for Upscaling Surface Urban Heat Islands with Daylight Images

Remote Sensing
The widespread availability and spatial coverage of land surface temperature (LST) estimates from space often result in LST being used as a proxy for near-surface air temperature in order to characterize the urban heat island (UHI) effect.
