Science Needs for a Terrestrial Biosphere Tipping Point Early Warning System

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract Tipping points in the Earth system have the potential to cause major detrimental impacts to the biosphere and societies. Their inherent nonlinearity implies that even relatively small additional increases in external forcing might result in disproportionately large adjustments to components of the Earth system.

Toward an Indigenous Curatorial Practice: Learning From Tłı̨chǫ Metaphors of Care to Establish Principles of Curation

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 4, Page 792-808, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The displacement of items of cultural heritage from Indigenous communities is continually perpetuated through their appropriation into collection systems that are inappropriate to Indigenous laws and customs. This paper presents the efforts of the Tłı̨chǫ Government (TG) to address such issues by creating a system that is rooted within its ...

Medical Archaeology and the Research Roads of Global Health in the Age of Eugenics

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 4, Page 826-847, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This article centers on an underexplored dimension of archaeology—the role of medicine and medical doctors in the ways archaeological excavations connected at times with early global health research and infrastructures. Its case studies focus on archaeology's role in the institutional networks, research routes, and racialized pathologies that ...

Bridging Geomythology and Geospatial Analysis for Flood Risk Assessment in Tamil Nadu

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The need for more holistic and context‐aware approaches to flood‐risk assessment has become increasingly urgent with extreme climate change events faced globally. Modern models overlook the long‐term environmental knowledge incorporated in ancient literature, myths, and cultural memory as they rely primarily on hydrological and geospatial ...

Spatial assessment of land suitability for aquaculture in the Tena River basin, Napo‐Ecuador

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 6, December 2026.
Abstract Aquaculture in the Tena River Basin (Ecuador) is a key contributor to the local economy and food security; however, it also poses environmental risks, including water pollution and the decline of native species. This highlights the need for land‐use planning to identify suitable areas for its development, considering environmental ...

Annual and Seasonal Rainfall Variability in Mozambique During the Nineteenth Century

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 14, 30 November 2026.
This paper presents the first annually and seasonally resolved reconstructions of nineteenth‐century rainfall variability for Mozambique derived from the analysis of extensive documentary evidence. It reveals spatially heterogeneous rainfall patterns with recurrent multi‐year droughts, episodic extreme wet events, and a strong coherence between ...

Enhanced Sensitivity of the Asian Water Tower to La Niña in the 21st Century

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is a key water source for downstream Asia, and its rainy‐season precipitation is influenced by the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO). However, whether this teleconnection has remained stationary over recent decades remains uncertain.

Interplay Between Deep Convection and Mesoscale Gravity Waves

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Although the association between precipitation and mesoscale gravity waves (MGWs) is well documented, the feedback mechanisms governing their amplification remain difficult to isolate. This study uses convection‐permitting numerical simulations with 1–4 km grid spacing to investigate a complex MGW event that occurred over the south‐central ...
