While the geosciences is interdisciplinary in nature, as a field it is not demographically diverse. Causes for this deficiency and proposed solutions have been identified over sev…

The backscattering coefficient of seawater, defined as the coefficient of scattering at angles > 90 degrees, includes contributions from water and from any particles in the water.…

Large increases in joint heat-humidity extremes are a robust feature of climate projections, more so than increases in either variable independently. The wet-bulb temperature thre…

Between 4 and 10 September 2017, multiple solar eruptions occurred from active region AR12673. NOAA and NASA’s well-instrumented spacecraft observed the evolution of these geoeffe…

Magnetic hysteresis loops are an important tool in theoretical and applied rock magnetism with applications to paleointensities, paleoenvironmental analysis, and tectonic studies,…

Anorthosites that comprise the bulk of the lunar crust are believed to have formed during solidification of a Lunar Magma Ocean (LMO) in which these rocks would have floated to th…

Earth’s greenhouse effect is manifested as the difference between thermal infrared radiation emitted at the Earth surface and that emitted to space at the top of the atmosphere. T…

A 10-year data set of alpha and gamma radiation from radon in air has been collected using an Enhanced Confined Mode experiment (ECM; EXP #1). Analysis of periodic phenomena from …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have been increasingly used for field data collection and remote sensing purposes. Their ease of use, ability to carry sensors and cameras, low cost…

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is a key component of the global climate system. Many models predict a weakening or even a collapse of the AMOC under future…

Resolution plays a major role in the accuracy of wave simulations, and its definition is an important step of wave modelling. It should be chosen taking into consideration the spe…

Large earthquakes away from plate boundaries pose a significant threat to human lives and infrastructure, but such events typically occur on previously unknown faults. Most cases …

Ocean color satellites require routine in-orbit verification and vicarious calibration to maintain accuracy over the mission lifetime and between satellites. The majority of vicar…

Paleo and recent sea surface temperature (SST) measurements at six locations spanning the North Atlantic, from the northeastern North Atlantic off the British Isles to the Dry Tor…

Hydrologic exchange flows (HEFs) across the river-aquifer interface have important implications for biogeochemical processes and contaminant plume migration in the river corridor,…

The Ocean and Land Colour Instrument Imagery (OLCI) sensor provides moderate spatial and temporal resolution of marine data, becoming a promising tool for monitoring environmental…

The present study aims to quantify (estimate) the impact of human water consumption—as for irrigation, livestock, domestic, manufacturing, and thermal energy production—versus (na…

• The energy sector is intertwined with water, food, public health, and gender matters. Hence a nexus perspective increases understanding of these interdependencies, enhancing eff…

Since April 2016, the OLCI era has begun, providing a new opportunity for atmospheric correction of turbid waters due to its novel spectral band in the SWIR. This new band at 1016…

The paper discusses a simple empirical method for calculating spectra of the light backscattering coefficient bb(λ) in Baltic Sea surface waters based on the remote-sensing reflec…

A comparative study of the surface layer bio-optical properties of the Barents and Norwegian Seas in the summer of 2017 is carried out. Ship data were obtained during the 68th cru…

Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is the major long-lived sulfur bearing gas in the atmosphere, and is used to estimate the rates of regional and global (both past and current) photosynthesi…

Small cumulus clouds over the western United States were measured via airborne instruments during the wildfire season in summer of 2018. Statistics of the sampled clouds are prese…

Phytoplankton blooms pose escalating risks to drinking-water security, yet translating high-frequency monitoring data into timely, reliable, and interpretable forecasts remains ch…

Ocean fronts play a key role in the vertical transport of heat, energy and biogeochemical tracers, but their behaviour and life cycle is not well-understood, especially at smaller…

Accurate soil moisture estimation is essential for agriculture, disaster management, and hydrology. Traditional methods are accurate but time-consuming and destructive, while exis…

Traditional ice cores provide invaluable insights into changes in past atmospheric greenhouse gas levels, like carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and their relationship to climate over the l…

Mediterranean Spain faces intensifying water stress under climate‐change projections of 25‐50% 10 recharge decline by 2100, yet major karst aquifer systems supplying its rivers, s…

Pi2 oscillations have been known to be associated with cavity mode oscillations (CMOs) in the inner magnetosphere at low latitudes. CMOs can also be excited by interplanetary shoc…

One important mechanism by which energy and mass is transferred into Earth’s magnetosphere is the formation of waves and vortices at the magnetopause. These waves and vortices can…

Low-cloud feedback continues to dominate uncertainty in climate sensitivity, with no direct observational estimate to date. Here we provide the first such estimate by combining sa…

Internal variability may provide constraints on the global temperature response to forcing. Previous work showed that ENSO induces atmospheric stratification anomalies that lead t…

Accurate simulation of soil moisture is foundemental in hydrological modeling and water resource management. While increasingly widely used in soil moisture simulations, deep lear…

Extreme climate events are becoming more frequent, with poorly understood implications for carbon sequestration by terrestrial ecosystems. A better understanding will critically d…

The oceans are a major carbon sink. Sea surface temperature (SST) is a crucial variable in the calculation of the air-sea carbon dioxide (CO2;) flux from surface observations. Any…

Inter-annual to decadal variability in the strength of the land and ocean carbon sinks impede accurate predictions of year-to-year atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) growth rate. Su…

Minerals are information-rich materials that offer researchers a glimpse into the evolution of planetary bodies. Thus it is important to extract, analyze, and interpret this abund…
