Growth in Production and Environmental Deposition of Trifluoroacetic Acid Due To Long‐Lived CFC Replacements and Anesthetics

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a persistent pollutant with potential long‐term effects on the environment and on health. Recent studies using ice core records report large increases (up to tenfold) in Arctic TFA deposition since the 1970s, and trends suggest long‐lived chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) replacements may be a major source.

Trend of North African Dust Storms and Potential Link to Climate Change

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Over recent decades, North African dust storms have undergone marked variability, reflecting complex interactions between regional climate processes and environmental change. Using four decades (1984–2023) of visibility‐based observational records, we examine regional and seasonal trends in dust storm frequency across the Sahel and the Sahara,

The Relationship Between Precuneus Thickness and Psychopathology in Adolescent Females With Anorexia Nervosa

International Journal of Eating Disorders, Volume 59, Issue 2, Page 384-400, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe psychiatric disorder with structural brain alterations; however, the roles of cortical surface area (CSA) and cortical thickness (CTh) during adolescence remain unclear. Building on frequent reports of gray matter reductions in the cingulate cortex and precuneus, this study assesses CSA, CTh, and ...
