The Cycles and Dynamical Properties of Convective Outbreaks in Jupiter's Highest Speed Jet From a 55‐Year Study

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Jupiter's most intense jet at planetographic latitude 23.7°N experiences vigorous planetary‐scale disturbances. The onset consists of the outbreak of 1–3 bright clouds of convective origin developing turbulent plumes. Observed events between 1970 and 2025 shows a cycle of activity with a period in the range of 3.8–5.1 yrs interrupted between ...

Slantwise Convection and Heat Transport in Icy Moon Oceans

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Ocean heat transport on icy moons shapes the ice shell topography, a primary observable of these moons. Two key processes control the heat transport: baroclinic instability driven by surface buoyancy contrasts and convective instability driven by heating from the core.

Reduced Upwind Moisture Transport Contributes to Drought in the Agro‐Pastoral Ecotone of Northern China

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract It remains unclear how changes in moisture supply drive droughts in the Agro‐Pastoral Ecotone of Northern China (APENC), where ecological restoration and food security are increasingly vulnerable under warming. Using a moisture‐tracking model, we quantify the moisture sources of APENC's precipitation and its trends, and reveal mechanisms ...

On the Mechanisms of Excessively Large Drag Coefficient Under Low‐Wind Conditions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Observations show that the drag coefficient (CD) increases rapidly as wind speed decreases under low‐wind conditions, contradicting Monin‐Obukhov similarity theory (MOST). Analysis of multi‐year station data reveals that wind speed has a stronger influence on this anomalous CD increase than atmospheric stability.
