Evolving Fire Frequency in the Western United States and Its Links to Human Influence

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Burned area and wildfire damages in the western United States (WUS) have increased dramatically in recent decades. Wildfire frequency, however, has shown trends that vary by data set, region, and fire size. Using a comprehensive fire occurrence data set screened for reporting artifacts from 1992 to 2020, we show a significant downward trend in

Nine‐Year L‐Band InSAR Time Series of Tectonic and Non‐Tectonic Surface Deformation in Northern California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study evaluates the performance of ALOS‐2 ScanSAR time series for resolving tectonic, volcanic, hydrologic, and geomorphic deformation across Northern California. Beginning in 2021, ALOS‐2 acquired ScanSAR data with a 14‐day repeat interval over the region, providing the closest available analog to the recently launched NISAR mission. The

A Method to Implement Natural Flow Regimes for Regulated Rivers

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Rivers throughout the world have been dammed for flood control, irrigation, hydropower, and water storage for centuries. Dams service the economic and development needs of societies, but degrade the ecology of rivers. To conserve diminishing aquatic species and their habitats, methods are needed to help managers implement flow releases with ...

Unprecedented Shifts in Hydrology Are Emerging Across California's Critical Basins: An Evaluation From 0.5 to 3.5°C

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract With advances in climate models and downscaling techniques, stakeholders anticipate high‐resolution analysis to inform regional to local changes in water management. Here, we produce hydrologic projections from an ensemble of Earth System Models (ESMs) that were selected and downscaled to support California's 5th Climate Assessment.
