Regolith in Motion: Dynamic Surface Evolution After Lunar Impacts

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Multi‐temporal observations captured by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera provide valuable insights into contemporary surface changes. These images reveal that minor impact events (resulting in <100‐m diameter craters) significantly alter regolith structure over great distances (>1,000 crater diameters) by increasing the meter‐to ...

Comparison of Soil Mineralogy From EMIT Imaging Spectroscopy and Ground‐Based Measurements in the Deserts of Southern California

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The highly variable spatial composition of desert soils remains a major source of uncertainty in estimates of dust radiative forcing. Existing soil mineralogy data sets used in climate models are limited by sparse ground observations and coarse spatial resolution.

Identifying Energy Balance Drivers of Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Melt Using Causal Discovery

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) mass loss has accelerated in recent decades, primarily due to enhanced surface melt. Identifying the causal dependencies of surface melt remains challenging with conventional correlations. Using the PCMCI+ ${\text{PCMCI}}^{+}$ causal discovery algorithm applied to CESM2 large‐ensemble simulations and evaluated ...

Maximum Lifetime of the Vegetative Biosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract We use a three‐dimensional model to calculate steady‐state climates at various intervals in Earth's future, across a parameter space of increasing insolation and decreasing CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ mixing ratio. Comparison with prior results shows an overestimation of warming by one‐dimensional models when solar constant is increased and CO2 ...

An Analysis of Hurricane Eyewall Ice Using a Novel Lagrangian Trajectory and Growth Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Ice crystals in tropical cyclones (TCs) remain infrequently observed and difficult to model using Eulerian microphysics parameterizations. To better understand TC eyewall ice crystal processes, the Ice Crystal Trajectory Growth (ICTG) model, previously applied to an idealized squall line, was used to simulate Lagrangian ice crystal ...
