Shape Matters: Unlocking Transport Histories in Fine‐Grained Aeolian Sediments With Endmember Modeling of Size–Shape Distributions

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The transport medium, mode, energy, and distance are recorded in the grain‐size and grain‐shape distributions in a sedimentary deposit. While grain‐size analysis has long been used in sedimentology, grain‐shape analysis is increasingly recognized as a valuable tool for reconstructing sedimentary processes and palaeoenvironments.

Thresholds of Wave Forcing: Implications for Atoll Reef Dynamics Under Sea Level Rise

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We investigate the response of shallow reef flow to tidal variability and wave exposure during a 4‐month field campaign in southern Huvadhu Atoll, Maldives. Incident waves breaking on steep fore reefs and reef crests generate a setup proportional to offshore wave height that drives a cross‐reef flow. We emphasize a critical threshold—where the

Storm Wind Flow and Sediment Dynamics on Adjacent Coastal Dunes With Contrasting Morphologies During One Storm Event

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract This study presents the first high‐resolution spatial and temporal analysis of wind flow, sediment transport and topographic evolution under simultaneous storm conditions across two morphologically contrasting beach‐dune systems, characterized by a gently sloping dune face (11°) and a steep, scarped dune face (36°).

Surfzone Water Depth Estimation From Surface Flows Using a Data‐Driven and Physics‐Informed Deep Conditional Generative Model

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract A physics‐informed deep conditional generative model driven with remotely sensed surface currents is shown to estimate surfzone water depths (bathymetry). The model encodes measured flow data as latent Gaussian parameters and decodes these distributions to estimate water depths over the domain, progressively refining its predictions via a loss‐

Detrital Zircon Data Support Stronger, Inland‐Tracking Hurricanes During the Miocene Climatic Optimum, Maryland USA

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Climate models run under warmer‐than‐modern conditions indicate that hurricanes pass closer to the US East Coast and show that a higher proportion of tropical cyclones achieve “major hurricane” strength with winds >209 km/hr. Empirical observations indicate that the dominant southward longshore current direction off the US East Coast is ...

Analytical Model of Velocity Distribution and Penetration Characteristics in Water‐Level Fluctuation Zone With Vegetation

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract As a critical ecological transition zone between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, the water‐level fluctuation zone significantly influences flow structure through vegetation morphology. Conventional analytical velocity models inadequately address the variation in vegetation with water depth.

Exploring the Potential and Evaluating Hydrocarbon Degradation by Novel Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas Isolates From a Pristine Environment

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...
