Coupled Effects of Grain Size and Metallic Iron on Spectral and Polarimetric Properties of Lunar Simulants

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The lunar surface is heterogeneous in grain size and metallic iron abundance due to diverse histories of space weathering. The spectral and polarimetric properties of the lunar regolith are strongly affected by both grain size and metallic iron particles.

Ancient Impact Melt Near the Lunar South Pole: Distribution, Provenance, and Sampling Strategy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Due to a lack of pre‐Nectarian samples associated with specific impacts in the Apollo suite, the early Solar System's impact chronology is poorly constrained. We investigate where Artemis and other south polar lunar missions could sample impactites to determine the ages of pre‐Nectarian craters, focusing on the ancient craters Haworth ...

Phosphate Enrichment From Wildlife Inputs Shapes the Distribution and Pigmentation of Green and Red Snow Algae Along the West Antarctic Peninsula

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Snow algae darken snow through biomass accumulation and pigmentation, yet nutrient controls on algal abundance and pigment composition in Antarctic snowfields remain poorly constrained. Along the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), coastal snowfields receive nutrient inputs from marine and wildlife sources that may influence bloom development.

Assessing JULES Across Bioclimatic Domains Through a Pan‐African Flux Tower Evaluation: Insights Into Controls on Gross Primary Productivity, Ecosystem Respiration, and Evapotranspiration Biases

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Land surface models are fundamental for simulating coupled carbon, water and energy exchanges in Earth system models, yet their performance remains poorly constrained across Africa's diverse hydroclimatic gradients. We evaluate the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) using eddy covariance observations from 16 flux towers spanning major

Urban oases relax desiccation risk for an arid‐adapted lizard

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3063-3072, October 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization from expanding human development has radically altered the structure, ecology and microclimate of landscapes worldwide. These dramatic environmental alterations subject organisms to novel ecological conditions and may select for distinct ecophysiological ...

From Reactive Remediation to Predictive Prevention: A Systems Synthesis of Global Soil Salinization and Sodicity

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
Salty soils are spreading across the world's farmland, often building up unnoticed for years before crop yields fall sharply and repair becomes slow and costly. Our review shows that this damage comes from linked problems in soil chemistry, water management, and policy, so fixing any one of them alone rarely works.
