The Past, Present, and Future at JAMES
The outgoing editor in chief of JAMES reflects on his time at the journal, recent developments in Earth system modeling, and the challenges of making modeling data accessible.
The Surprising Source of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Changing the way emissions are tallied may help litigators focus on the worst climate offenders and shape mitigation.
Improving Access to Paleoclimate Data
Paleoclimate databases are powerful tools for improving climate models. The recent work of speleothem researchers offers lessons on creating a lasting database and fostering the needed mindset.
Hunting the Source of Deccan Traps Volcanism Using Seismic Waves
Seismic velocity patterns beneath the Deccan Traps region in western India reveal its volcanic history.
Exploring the Engine and Drivers of Soil Formation
A new book presents a multidisciplinary perspective on soil, exploring it as a nexus for water flow, near surface (bio)geochemistry, erosion and deposition, and biologically coupled nutrient cycling.
Advances in Satellite Data for Wildfire Smoke Forecasting
Observations from the newest geostationary Earth-observing satellites are offering valuable views of fire progression and smoke plume development and helping simulate impacts from large wildfires.
Rainfall Change with Warming More Consistent than Anticipated
Dew point temperature better explains precipitation change with warming than temperature itself, and the relation is more spatially coherent than previously thought.
