Novelty for the flora of Espírito Santo, Brazil: a new species of Ouratea Aubl. (Ochnaceae)
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Here, we describe and illustrate the new species Ouratea oberdanii Fraga & Deccache, which is named after Dr Oberdan José Pereira. This new species is found in the mountainous regions of the evergreen Atlantic Forest in the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo. Ouratea oberdanii is similar to O. linearis (A.Gray) Sastre & Offroy and O.

An Analysis of Future Wind Energy Resources and Cost Uncertainties Across the United States
Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Wind power is a growing source of energy generation that relies on complex global atmospheric and earth system processes. There has been evidence of reductions in average wind speeds over land in North America since the 1980s, and several models project that average wind speeds will continue to decrease.

Using Machine Learning to Predict Phytoplankton Blooms in the Salish Sea
Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Strong phytoplankton blooms occur every spring in the Salish Sea, but vary significantly, spatially and temporally. Natural variability and climate change make the prediction of the bloom challenging, as they affect both atmospheric drivers and nutrient interactions that contribute to the growth of phytoplankton. Understanding these drivers is

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Accurately estimating Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) in glacierized regions is critical for glacier modeling and mass balance analysis yet remains challenging due to sparse observations and uncertainties in precipitation products. The objectives are twofold: (a) assess how well three widely used precipitation datasets—Stage IV (a radar–gauge ...

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract This study investigates numerical error growth mechanisms associated with lateral boundary conditions (LBCs) and their sensitivity to update frequency within a “Big‐Brother” framework. Using an idealized moist WRF baroclinic wave simulation, a high‐resolution reference is compared against three nested configurations: traditional one‐way 6‐hr ...
