Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Tropical low‐cloud feedback is the largest source of uncertainty in climate sensitivity, yet multi‐century records of surface shortwave radiation are scarce. We calibrate Porites coral δ13C against satellite photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) and reconstruct monthly PAR for the northern South China Sea during the Medieval Climate ...

Observation‐Constrained Projections Reveal Robust Streamflow Increases in Indian Rivers
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Reliable streamflow projections are essential for effective water‐resource management and climate adaptation. However, streamflow projections are associated with large uncertainties due to divergent precipitation projections from climate models, which directly propagate into hydrological estimates.

The generalization of Voronovskaja's theorem for a class of linear and positive operators
Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2005 In this paper we generalize Voronovskaja's theorem for a class of linear and positive operators, and then, through particular cases, we obtain statements verified by the Bernstein, Schurer, Stancu, Kantorovich and Durrmeyer operators.

On Chlodowsky Variant of (p,q) Kantorovich-Stancu-Schurer Operators
International Journal of Analysis and Applications, 2016 In the present paper, we introduce the Chlodowsky variant of (p,q) Kantorovich-Stancu-Schurer operators on the unbounded domain which is a generalization of (p,q) Bernstein-Stancu-Kantorovich operators.
