Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

A Random Walker Algorithm for Plate Boundary Detection in Spherical Mantle Convection Models and Global Geophysical Data Sets: Application to Euler Vector Determination

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract As spherical shell mantle convection models become increasingly commonplace, understanding how plates are generated has raised the issue of how to recognize whether rigid plates are present in model output. Tectonocists have long recognized that intraplate regions are not rigid without exception.

Asymptotic Behaviour of Galactic Small-scale Dynamos at Modest Magnetic Prandtl Number

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Magnetic fields are critical at many scales to galactic dynamics and structure, including multiphase pressure balance, dust processing, and star formation. Dynamo action determines their dynamical structure and strength.

Onset of zero Prandtl number convection

open access: yesJournal de Physique II, 1992
The transition to convection in a zero Prandtl number fluid with stress-free and perfectly conducting boundaries differs significantly from finite Prandtl number convection, giving rise to a three-dimensional pattern. Two possible scenarios are described and compared with recent numerical simulations by Thual [1].

Intense Isopycnal Stirring and Double‐Diffusion Contributing to Microscale Variance in the Kuroshio Extension Front

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In oceanic frontal regions, isopycnal stirring induces lateral thermohaline intrusion. Previous studies have observed interleaving layers in the Izu Ridge and Kuroshio Extension attributed to isopycnal stirring driven by mesoscale eddies and submesoscale flows.

Investigating the Effect of Internal Waves on Vertical Ice Melting Rates

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Polar ice sheets are losing mass as a result of ocean‐driven melting processes and thus affecting global climate and sea level. Understanding the relevant dynamics and interactions at the ice‐ocean interface is crucial to developing more accurate sea‐level rise projections, but key ocean processes have not yet been considered in detail.

A Wave Tank Study on Turbulent Transport of a Passive Tracer Above Gravelly Sand Beds

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Exchange processes at the seabed interface have a non‐negligible impact on biogeochemical processes of the sea. Acknowledging this impact on the input of nutrients from the seabed into the water column further entails properly assessing the transport and mixing of these nutrients within the water column.
