(Im)possibility of Redress: Mega‐Infrastructures and the Voided Politics of Contestation
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Drawing on critical geography's recent engagement with negativity, this article intervenes in dominant relational approaches to infrastructure by examining the (im)possibility of redress under mega‐infrastructure development through a case study of the Lamu Port–South Sudan–Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) Corridor in coastal Kenya.

Positive Association Between Coastal Sea Surface Temperatures and Humid Heat Stress on Nearby Land
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Large populations along Earth's coastlines are exposed to climate hazards including extreme humid heat. Considering observed coastal ocean warming and increased coastal marine heatwave (MHW) activity, we seek to uncover if, how, and where coastal ocean temperatures are linked with heat and humidity on land nearby.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Typhoon peripheral conditions modulate the formation and atmospheric fate of ozone precursors, yet the vertical distribution and the underlying physical‐chemical drivers remain less constrained. Here, we examine the vertical profiles of ozone precursor proxies, including formaldehyde (HCHO), glyoxal (CHOCHO), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), in the

The Role of Lightning in Atmospheric Chemistry
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Lightning has important effects on atmospheric constituents in primarily the middle and upper troposphere. We summarize the effects of lightning on atmospheric chemistry that have been published since the last major review in 2007. The estimates of NOx production by lightning (LNOx) are based on five methods: theoretical/laboratory estimates ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Hot extremes have increased globally and on a regional scale. Traditional data processing methods to understand air quality changes in hot extremes may not adequately describe variations in directly emitted air pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx) or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and their influence on secondary species such as ozone (O3).

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.Abstract Near‐surface wind regimes govern critical Earth system processes including dust mobilization, ocean mixing, and wildfire spread, yet their multi‐decadal evolution under anthropogenic forcing remains poorly constrained. Here we quantify extreme wind frequency changes (1981–2024) using ERA5‐Land reanalysis with a monthly aggregation approach ...
