Transhumance as a Prism. Toward a Planetary Rural Geography of Mountain Space
Geography Compass, Volume 20, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Transhumance is a marginal—yet crucial—practice within mountain and rural geographies at a global scale. The term refers to a wide range of extensive grazing systems characterized by the seasonal movement of herds and flocks between different altitudes, within diverse governance systems.

Systematic Overestimation of Global Peak Runoff Synchronization in CMIP6 Models
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract Synchronous flooding across distant regions can amplify socioeconomic impacts. As the hydrological cycle intensifies, flood synchronization appears to be expanding, yet predictive understanding beyond gauged basins remains limited. We analyze the global synchronization of annual peak runoff (a proxy for flooding) using gridded data sets and ...

A Shallow‐Marine Ecosystem Before Initial Tibetan Plateau Uplift
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract The uplift of the Tibetan Plateau profoundly influences global atmospheric circulation, sediment transport, and biodiversity, but its pre‐uplift marine paleoenvironment remains poorly understood. Here we report the first discovery of an in situ benthic fossil assemblage from the Puga area in central Tibet, which was deposited on a shallow ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.Abstract Intracontinental deformation records how early Eocene India–Asia collisional stress propagated into continental interiors. How rapidly compression reached the far field, and whether coeval Paleo‐Pacific slab dynamics contributed, remain debated. The Longzhong Basin, ∼1,900 km north of the collisional zone, provides a key test.
