An Emergentist Approach to Phenomenal Causality

open access: yesPacific Philosophical Quarterly, Volume 107, Issue 2, Page 74-85, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Philosophers have long debated whether phenomenal properties can play genuine causal roles. In this article, I aim to develop an emergentist approach to phenomenal causality, an approach that attributes novel causal powers to phenomenal properties and rejects the causal closure of physics.

Large Particle Size and Thick Coating Influence Pyrocumulonimbus Smoke Radiative Forcing and Stratospheric Warming: Insights From the 2019–2020 Australian Megafires

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Large particle size and thick coatings have been detected in pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) smoke injected into the lower stratosphere, enhancing both extinction and absorption of smoke. Here, we quantified how particle size and coating, via internal mixing of non‐absorbing species on black carbon, influence pyroCb smoke radiative forcing and ...

Breakthrough in Measuring Snowfall Intensity With Hybrid Deep Learning and Surveillance Cameras

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Accurate snowfall measurements are vital for disaster mitigation, climate studies, and many other applications. Widely deployed surveillance cameras offer novel possibilities for fine‐scale snowfall observation. This paper proposes HySnowNet, a hybrid framework that first extracts snowflakes using physical frequency domain techniques, then ...

Long‐Lived Sub‐Micron Desert Dusts are Important Ice‐Nucleating Particles in the Polar Regions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Ice‐nucleating particles (INPs) modify the distribution and radiative properties of mixed‐phase clouds, making them a key component of the climate system. However, we have a very limited understanding of INPs, particularly in polar regions that are remote from major low‐latitude sources.

Machine Learning Reveals Hidden Bias in ERA5 Cloud Heights Over Earth's Third Pole

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.
Abstract Accurate cloud base height (CBH) over the Tibetan Plateau—Earth's Third Pole—is essential for monsoon dynamics, glacial melt, and water security, yet ERA5 systematically underestimates it. Here, we present a two‐step machine learning framework to mitigate this hidden bias.
