Rapid Evolution of Volcanic Systems Reflected in Magnetics
Spatiotemporal magnetic monitoring along with InSAR models is a powerful tool to image magmatic, hydrothermal, and mechanical changes within the volcanic edifice of the Piton de la Fournaise.
A New Coupled Modeling System Improves Forecast Skills
Building on older versions, the new Global Ensemble Forecast System with coupled atmosphere-land-ocean-ice-wave models has better forecasting skills of the atmosphere than the uncoupled system.
Yellowstone Geyser is Diagnosed with Bubble Trap Syndrome
Like humans who eat too many beans, Yellowstone’s Sprouter Geyser has recurrent issues with gas.
Mesoscale Convective Systems Impact Synoptic Wave Forecast
Scientists provide a process-level understanding of how mesoscale convective systems modify the evolution of the large-scale Rossby wave packet downstream and the jet stream.
What Surprises do the Icy Uranian Moons Hold?
With efforts ramping up to send a spacecraft back to the Uranian system, anticipation is increasing as to what geological surprises are hiding inside and on the surfaces of the icy Uranian moons.
Dust on Mars? The Answer, My Friend, is Blowin’ in the Wind
The first flights of a helicopter on another planet are used to study dust lifting and mobilization in Jezero Crater, Mars.
Source of Precipitation Moisture Feeding Himalayan Rivers
Isotope study showing the partitioning of moisture into snow, ice, and groundwater allows an understanding of the relative contribution to river flow to show where Himalayan river water comes from.
Large Geomagnetic Field Changes Recorded by Archeomagnetism
A rare case of absolute paleointensity data in sub-centennial resolution from an archeological site provide much higher values than predicted by existing magnetic field models.
What Electrons Can Tell Us About the Speed of Sand
A new sediment tracer uses the interactions between radiation, charge, and the Sun to uncover the hidden transport histories of sand grains.
