Exotic Plant Invasion Enhances Nitrous Oxide Emission and Methane Uptake in Forests and Grasslands: A Global Meta‐Analysis

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Invasive plants can alter ecosystem primary productivity and carbon sequestration, thereby reshaping greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Here, we conducted a global meta‐analysis of 141 paired in situ observations to investigate how exotic plant invasion influences nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) emissions in forests and grasslands.

Capturing Spatiotemporal and Subgrid Variability in Global Land Surface Albedo Parameterization

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Accurate surface albedo parameterization is critical for modeling Earth's energy balance. Yet, many schemes rely on static look‐up tables or semi‐empirical formulations that fail to capture spatiotemporal variations and complex radiative interactions. This study develops a physics‐informed machine‐learning parameterization using 19 years (2003–

Integrating Maximum Entropy Production Theory and Machine Learning to Improve Global Evapotranspiration Modeling

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Accurate estimation of terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET) is vital for understanding global water and energy cycles. However, current global ET estimations are not well constrained. This study introduces an integrated framework combining the Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) theory with Random Forest (RF) model to improve global ET estimation.

Hardness Toxicity and Multi‐Route, Multi‐Demographic Health Risks of Nitrate‐Contaminated Groundwater: A Call for Sustainable Environmental and Public Health Protection

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Groundwater contamination by nitrate and hardness poses critical challenges to environmental sustainability and public health across many regions. This research pioneers an integrated assessment of nitrate multi‐route exposure for six‐age groups and hardness toxicity in Ghana.

Impacts of Fire on Flow Magnitude and Variability in the Southeastern Amazon Basin

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Increasing fire within the Amazon rainforest is a significant disturbance that has the potential to alter flow regimes and subsequently impact local ecology and ecosystem services. While previous studies have examined the impact of land cover change on streamflow, the specific effects of fire on the hydrology of Amazonian forested catchments ...
