Glacier‐Atmosphere Interactions and Feedbacks in High‐Mountain Regions ‐ A Review

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Mountain glaciers are among the natural systems most vulnerable to climate change. However, their interactions with the atmosphere are complex and not fully understood. These interactions can trigger rapid adjustments and climate feedbacks that either amplify or attenuate atmospheric signals, influencing both glacier response and large‐scale ...

Meteorological to Agricultural Drought Transitions Compounded by Heat Waves in Historical and Future Climates

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Meteorological droughts (persistent precipitation deficits) often, but not always, transition into agricultural droughts (persistent soil moisture deficits). The intensity of agricultural drought, however, can vary for a given precipitation deficit due to a number of catalyzing co‐factors beyond precipitation such as atmospheric evaporative ...

Enriching MPEG-7 user models with content metadata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
MPEG-7 is an XML-based standard that provides tools for creating rich and structured multimedia content metadata. However, only an extremely limited range of preferences can be specified for user models and multimedia content metadata created by other ...

Quantifying Historical and Future Surface Soil Moisture Drying Using Deep Learning and Remote Sensing

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Understanding historical and future surface soil moisture (SSM) drying is pivotal due to its close links with droughts, heatwaves, and wildfires, yet debates regarding its evolution persist. In this study, we leverage advanced deep learning techniques to fill gaps of remote sensing‐based SSM data during 1983–2020 and therefore use these gap ...

The first polarimetric GNSS-Reflectometer instrument in space improves the SMAP mission’s sensitivity over densely vegetated areas

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission has dramatically benefited our knowledge of the Earth’s surface processes. The SMAP mission was initially designed to provide complementary L-band measurements from a radiometer and a radar, producing ...

Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.

Localized Threats: How Ground Conductivity Shapes the Geoelectric Response

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetic storms can induce strong geoelectric fields in the ground. These fields drive geomagnetically induced currents in technological conductor systems, such as power grids. In this study, we analyze 4‐hr periods of two such major geomagnetic storms: the Halloween storm (29–31 October 2003) and the 7–8 September 2017 storm.

Spatially Interpolated CYGNSS Data Improve Downscaled 3 km SMAP/CYGNSS Soil Moisture

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Soil moisture data with both a fine spatial scale and a short global repeat period would benefit many hydrologic and climatic applications. Since the radar transmitter malfunctioned on NASA’s Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) in 2015, SMAP soil ...
