Beyond Geostrophic and Gradient Wind: Enhancing the Estimation of Climatic Wind Fields From Radio Occultation

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Wind approximations, such as geostrophic and gradient wind, are limited in their ability to accurately represent atmospheric conditions in the presence of significant planetary wave activity. Those approximations, while widely applied in synoptic‐scale wind field estimation, fail to capture the full complexity of atmospheric dynamics under ...

KAUSTSat: Saudi Arabia's First Hyperspectral CubeSat Mission for Earth Observation

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Developed by the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) to support research in atmospheric science and remote sensing, KAUSTSat represented Saudi Arabia's (and the Middle East's) first research‐focused hyperspectral CubeSat mission for Earth observation.

The Evolution of a Polar Cap Patch Into a Blob in the Nightside Ionosphere: Direct Observations of Multiple Blob Formation Mechanisms Acting Simultaneously on the Same Plasma

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract A polar cap patch was observed to exit the polar cap to become a blob as it entered the auroral oval on the nightside of the Earth under moderately quiet geomagnetic conditions (Kp = 3−). Auroral particle precipitation led to an increase in the electron density of the blob.

Global GNSS Observation of Mesoscale Ionospheric Irregularities (2006–2024)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale ionospheric irregularities are statistically investigated using an unprecedented 19‐year long‐term global GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) TEC (total electron content) data set. These irregularities are represented by ionospheric fluctuations within a 5°× ${}^{\circ}\times $ 3.75° ${}^{\circ}$ (latitude by longitude) region ...

Sea Level Determination in the Spanish Coast Using GNSS-R

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
GNSS reflectometry (GNSS-R) a technique for the study of variations in the height of sea level and inland waters, and for the study of soil moisture, based on the comparison of the direct and reflected noise signal.

Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.

Toward a Dynamic Model for Topside Ionospheric Irregularities: Spherical Harmonic Decomposition

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Ionospheric irregularities arise from highly dynamic and turbulent processes related to magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling and can lead to electromagnetic signal distortion or loss of lock events in global navigation satellite system signals, representing a hazard associated with space weather events. For this reason, understanding and modeling

Quantifying the Impacts of the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm on Transatlantic Aviation: Rerouting, Delays, and Economic Losses

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The May 2024 geomagnetic storm, one of the most intense events of Solar Cycle 25 to date, caused widespread disruptions in aviation operations, particularly for polar and high‐latitude routes. This study quantifies the operational and economic impacts of the storm on 12 selected transatlantic flights between North America and Europe.

Quasi‐4‐Day Waves During the 2018/2019 SSW and Their Coupling to the Ionosphere Based on Whole Atmosphere Data Assimilation

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract A strong westward zonal wavenumber‐2 quasi‐4‐day wave (Q4DW) during the 2018/2019 Northern Hemisphere sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) is both captured by Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) observations and our new whole neutral atmosphere data assimilation system.
