Forecasting Caldera Collapse Using Deep Learning
A deep learning model trained with geophysical data recorded during the well-documented 2018 Kilauea volcano eruption, Hawaii, predicts recurrent caldera collapse events.
Air-Ice-Ocean Coupling Observed in an Arctic Cyclone Event
New observations show detailed features of the ice-ocean response to a strong Arctic cyclone in the winter of 2019-2020.
Sediment Dampens the Impact of Glaciation on Cenozoic Denudation
Rates of continental-scale sediment flux and denudation are similar between glacial and interglacial periods when the aggradation of glacier-eroded sediment inhibits fluvial erosion downstream.
Spectral Solar Radiative Transfer in Plant Canopies
Spectrally resolved radiative transfer is needed to compute reliable estimates of sunlight transmission and photolysis of molecules within plant canopies.
Understanding Carbon-Water Tradeoffs in Pacific Northwest Forests
A new study documents how spruce forests differing in management and age structure influence individual tree growth, carbon stocks, and landscape-water balance in the Pacific…
Fixing Pollution from Space Needs Global Coordination
Remote sensing is a tool of choice for monitoring regions for air pollution, but the scale of the problem requires extending geostationary soundings globally.
Investigating Origins of CO2 Ice on Uranian Moons
A new study investigates the role of volatile migration in the unique Uranian thermal environment.
Improving Climate Models: Black Carbon Mixing and Shape Effects
A new study introduces a parameterization scheme to capture the complex optical properties of atmospheric black carbon, accounting for its mixing state, nonsphericity, and heterogeneous coatings.
Future Global Flood Hazards at Unprecedented Accuracy
A global flood hazard map at 30-meter resolution is constructed using latest hydrology, topography, and climate data, and its accuracy is approaching that of local to regional scale flood inundation maps.
Using Satellite Data to Estimate Atmospheric CO2 Growth Rates
A new method improves growth rate estimates of carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere by combining the standard NOAA approach with satellite data.
Past and Future Changes in Atmospheric Clear-Air Turbulence
A new study evaluates long-term changes in atmospheric clear-air turbulence based on meteorological reanalysis and climate model simulations.
Impact of NASA’s GDC Measurements on Predicting Earth’s Upper Atmosphere
A new study finds that assimilating observations of the ionosphere and thermosphere reduces the error in model predictions more than modeling either one individually.
Crustal Melts at the Core-Mantle Boundary
Seismic waves get sent in all directions for deep mantle anomalies, and a new analysis shows where those scatters lie and what properties they have.
New Method Reveals Hidden Structures in Clear-Sky Vertical Motion
High-resolution satellite data reveal unexpected, highly heterogeneous vertical motions in the clear-sky atmosphere, with a new method proposed for measuring these motions.
As the River Flows the Colors Sparkle
