Focusing Events, Agenda Setting, and Narrative Numbing

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Focusing events are important in understanding policy change, as demonstrated in Birkland's work on agenda setting, the multiple streams framework, and the narrative policy framework. These frameworks emphasize the role of focusing events in drawing public attention to broader issues.

Future Climate Projections of Hazardous Convective Weather Using an Ensemble of Environment‐Informed, Convection‐Permitting Dynamical Downscaling Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Convection‐permitting dynamical downscaling (CPDD) allows for an explicit representation of the convective storms that generate tornadoes, hail, severe thunderstorm winds, and locally heavy precipitation. Possible changes in such hazardous convective weather (HCW) due to human‐induced climate change are therefore projected with higher ...

Development and Research Progress of the ‘Land‐Based Container + Ecological Pond’ Recirculating Aquaculture Model in China

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review systematically examines China's Land‐based Container + Ecological Pond (LCEP) recirculating aquaculture model. It synthesizes the system's development, technical principles, and research progress, highlighting its significant resource savings (>75% land, >90% water) and high‐density production capabilities. The analysis critically evaluates

Increased dependency of regional drought termination on landfalling tropical cyclones

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Landfalling tropical cyclones frequently occur with strong winds and heavy rainfall, providing substantial water resources. The positive impacts of tropical cyclones on drought alleviation and termination remain unknown.

IUCN Red List Regional Assessment of the Flora of Niue Utilising Indigenous Local Knowledge and Botanical Information

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Are Forecasts of the Tropical Cyclone Radius of Maximum Wind Skillful?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The radius of maximum wind (RMW) defines the location of the maximum winds in a tropical cyclone and is critical to understanding intensity change as well as hazard impacts.

Tropical cyclone intensity change. A quantitative forecasting scheme [PDF]

open access: yes
One to two day future tropical cyclone intensity change from both a composite and an individual case point-of-view are discussed. Tropical cyclones occurring in the Gulf of Mexico during the period 1957-1977 form the primary data source.

Hierarchical Testing of a Hybrid Machine Learning‐Physics Global Atmosphere Model

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Machine learning (ML)‐based models have demonstrated high skill and computational efficiency, often outperforming conventional physics‐based models in weather and subseasonal predictions. While prior studies have assessed their fidelity in capturing synoptic‐scale atmospheric dynamics, their performance across timescales and under out‐of ...
