Expanding the Coastal Observation Frontier: SWOT Reveals the Spatial Footprint of Storm Surges

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract This study investigates the ability of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite to capture storm‐surge‐driven high sea levels in coastal regions. For the first time, the evolving process of storm surges has been observed in 2D through SWOT satellite data, providing a unique spatial perspective on these local extreme events.

In Situ Validation of Small‐Scale Spatial Variability in Significant Wave Height Observations From SWOT

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Ocean surface wave climates are shaped by both atmospheric forcing and underlying ocean conditions. Variability in open‐ocean wave heights subsequently reflects complex interactions occurring across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales.

What's Next for Snow: Insights From the NASA Terrestrial Hydrology Program Community Snow Meeting

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Earth's snow cover strongly influences the climate system and represents an important resource for agricultural, industrial, and domestic water use. The last decade of snow‐focused research has improved our understanding of snow across scales. These efforts have culminated in new snow measurement instruments and methods, operational models for

Physically Guided GAN‐Based Super Resolution of Buoy Observations for Internal Solitary Waves

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Accurate monitoring of internal solitary waves (ISWs) is crucial for understanding their influence on ocean mixing and energy transfer. Satellite observations offer a powerful tool for large‐scale ISW monitoring, but they mainly detect surface signatures and thus require nearby in situ measurements for validation and amplitude estimation ...
