Infrared‐Guided Super‐Resolution of Remotely Sensed Passive Microwave Sea Surface Temperature

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract High‐resolution sea surface temperature (SST) is essential for weather forecasting and climate applications. Passive microwave (MW) SST offers largely cloud‐penetrating coverage but is coarse and spatially smoothed, whereas infrared (IR) SST resolves fine‐scale structures but is frequently cloud‐obscured.

Subnational Border Reforms and Economic Activity in Africa

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, Volume 88, Issue 5, Page 1203-1218, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Using GIS methods, we identify territories in Africa affected by subnational border reforms between 1992 and 2013. Descriptive statistics reveal that these territories differed from other African regions across several key dimensions. For example, these territories were more populous and exhibited greater ethnic diversity.

Simulating Regional‐Scale Aerosol Radiative Effects of Wildfire Smoke Using a High‐Resolution Coupled Meteorology‐Chemistry Model: HRRR‐Chem

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Wildfires are increasing in frequency and intensity, strongly influencing both regional air quality and the Earth's radiation budget via their aerosol emissions. Relying on an unparalleled observational data set from the 2019 NOAA/NASA FIREX‐AQ campaign, this study quantifies the direct radiative effects of two wildfires using the HRRR‐Chem ...

Dampened Diurnal Cycles of Hot‐Wet Extremes in Urban Areas Contrast With Thermally Driven Daytime Stress in Rural Landscapes of Beijing‐Tianjin‐Hebei Region

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Hot‐wet extremes (HWEs) are intensifying in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region, but their fine‐scale diurnal urban–rural contrasts remain unclear. Using summer observations from 1,962 automatic weather stations during 2016–2024, we identify threshold‐exceeding HWE days and show that urban areas experience more compound day–night and independent ...
