Maximum Lifetime of the Vegetative Biosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract We use a three‐dimensional model to calculate steady‐state climates at various intervals in Earth's future, across a parameter space of increasing insolation and decreasing CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ mixing ratio. Comparison with prior results shows an overestimation of warming by one‐dimensional models when solar constant is increased and CO2 ...

Marine Stratocumulus Clouds With More Coarse Sea Spray Aerosols Are Brighter

Geophysical Research Letters
The idea of cooling the Earth by marine cloud brightening is well established. All prior studies considered enhancing cloud albedo only with fine aerosols (FA).

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Sensitivities of Large Eddy Simulations of Aerosol Plume Transport and Cloud Response

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Cloud responses to surface‐based sources of aerosol perturbation partially depend on how turbulent transport of the aerosol to cloud base affects the spatial and temporal distribution of aerosol.

Simulating Future Dynamics of a Groundwater‐Fed Lake in Central Europe: Integrating Modeling and Machine Learning Approach

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Freshwater systems in Central Europe are increasingly vulnerable to climate change and anthropogenic pressures. This study investigates future dynamics of Lake Groß Glienicke, a groundwater‐fed lake experiencing rapid water‐level decline in recent decades.

Dust Decline Amplifies High‐Cloud Ice‐to‐Liquid Transition and Buffers the Radiative Feedback Under Warming

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The response of the cloud phase to global warming is a critical yet poorly constrained component of Earth's climate sensitivity. While rising temperatures drive a thermodynamic transition from ice to liquid clouds, the role of ice‐nucleating particles in modulating this shift remains underexplored.

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 6, May 2026.
Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

The early history of Marine Cloud Brightening (MCB); the legacy of John Latham and Stephen Salter [PDF]

This paper discusses the initial development of Marine Cloud Brightening (MCB) as a theoretical idea, from its inception as a cloud microphysics process in circe 1990 to the full-blown concept by 2015.

Radiative forcing geoengineering under high CO2 levels leads to higher risk of Arctic wildfires and permafrost thaw than a targeted mitigation scenario

Communications Earth & Environment
Radiative forcing geoengineering is discussed as an intermediate solution to partially offset greenhouse gas-driven warming by altering the Earth’s energy budget.

Past Field Experiments of Solar Radiation Modification: A Review of the Scientific and Technical Aspects for Governance

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract As global warming intensifies, Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) has drawn increasing scientific and policy interest as a potential means to temporarily offset climate impacts. This review examines past SRM (or SRM‐like) field experiments, categorized into three primary techniques: Tropospheric and Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI ...
