Multi‐Sensor Spatiotemporal Fusion for 30‐m Daily Gapless Snow Cover Mapping

Water Resources Research
High spatiotemporal resolution remote sensing data is crucial for monitoring heterogeneous mountainous snow cover. Although spatiotemporal fusion presents a promising approach for high‐resolution snow monitoring, cloud contamination and sparse ...

Winter Type, Mediated by Land‐Surface Processes, Controls Seasonal Discharge Variability in Culturally Critical Ecosystems in the US's Upper Midwest

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Results showed snowpack to be the primary driver of springtime flow in the low‐relief, humid Upper Midwest U.S., with overall winter precipitation and thawing acting as key secondary drivers impacting hydrological flux partitioning across the land surface.

Extreme Climate Events in Morocco: Historical Analysis and Future Projections Based on CMIP6 Simulations

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 10, August 2026.
Historical observations and bias‐corrected CMIP6 projections reveal intensifying warm extremes, declining cold events and increasingly irregular precipitation patterns across Morocco. Future warming, particularly under SSP5‐8.5, produces an almost linear amplification of heat, aridity and hydrological stress, leading to longer droughts and more intense

This is fine: Mule deer and elk do not substantially change their behavior in response to active wildfires

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
During an outbreak of 7 wildfires in eastern Oregon, USA, we analyzed the home range and movement patterns of mule deer and elk before, during, and immediately after wildfires. Mule deer maintained high site fidelity during the wildfire but used their home range more uniformly and had higher daily displacement than deer unaffected by wildfire.

Between birch and berries: seasonal dietary niche partitioning among sympatric alpine herbivorous birds

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Niche partitioning is important for the coexistence of closely related species, allowing species to reduce overlap in resource use despite shared ecological requirements. In alpine environments, harsh climatic conditions and low habitat complexity constrain opportunities for ecological segregation, making seasonal resource fluctuation especially ...

Warming Drives Large‐Scale Shifts in Post‐Disturbance Vegetation Dynamics and Expansion of Deciduous Trees in the Boreal Forest in a Dynamic Vegetation Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The intensification of disturbance regimes due to climate change is a growing concern in boreal forests, yet the long‐term consequences for forest recovery remain poorly understood, as boreal successional dynamics unfold over a century or longer and exceed the length of available observational records.

Changing Snow Regime Classifications Across the Contiguous United States

Water Resources Research
Climate change is impacting snow phenology in the Contiguous US (CONUS) and altering locations of elevated risk for floods driven by snowmelt. Our study uses a new spatial snow regime classification system to track climate driven changes in snow ...

Efficient Emulation, Uncertainty Quantification, and Sensitivity Analysis for a Land Surface Model Using Evidential Deep Learning

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Land surface models (LSMs), such as the Community Land Model version 5 (CLM5), represent complex vegetation processes; however, systematic biases persist between modeled and observed leaf area index (LAI) because of parameter uncertainties and knowledge gaps.

Carbon‐Nutrient Interactions Under Insect Disturbance Simulated by the Land‐Surface Model QUINCY 21edff48

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Insect outbreaks significantly impact tree mortality and carbon‐nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems, yet most terrestrial biosphere models do not represent insect disturbances due to the complexity of nutrient processes and limited data. To address this gap, we implemented a new insect impacts module in the QUINCY (Quantifying Interactions ...
