Transnational, multiproxy, and interdisciplinary datasets locate seismic hazard and show that slow-rate tectonic and deglaciation deformation overrate mantle processes in the Southern-Eastern Alps.

Why Channel Steepness Might Not Always Be What You Think it to Be
Channel steepness is a popular metric in most studies of tectonic geomorphology, but the simple and convenient method of defining channels in the first place may have overlooked a serious pitfall.
Drought Extremes are Intensifying More Rapidly Than in the Past
Twenty ensemble members from a 600-year climate simulation reveal that drought extremes are intensifying more rapidly than in the past with respect to moderate droughts.
How Fluid Mixing due to Kelvin-Helmholtz Instabilities Really Works
Physical oceanographers might have a misconception about the anatomy of mixing at realistic Reynolds numbers in this important type of shear instability.
Streamflow From Generative AI
The trifecta of predicting, assimilating, and downscaling streamflow has arrived with generative diffusion AI models.
Participation Challenges May Limit Conservation Incentive Programs
Landowners in North Carolina are interested in adopting conservation practices that reduce flood risk but are discouraged by time-consuming conservation programs that are difficult to navigate.
Late Campanian Arabia-Eastern Anatolia Collision
New sediment-provenance data date the closure of the southern Neotethys and the Arabia–Eastern Anatolia collision to 74–71 million years ago, at least 25 million years earlier than previously estimated.
The Definitive Guide to the TEX86 Paleothermometer
A new review article summarizes our knowledge of how microbial lipids archived in marine sediments record ancient ocean temperatures and outlines challenges and next steps for the TEX86 proxy.
A New Pathway for Energy Redistribution in Near-Earth Space
In situ evidence of bidirectional wave-particle energy transfer enabled by local magnetic-field gradient reveals an inhomogeneity-driven pathway for energy redistribution.
Rising CO2 Alters Upper Atmosphere Response to Stratosphere Sudden Warming
A whole-atmosphere model simulation shows that rising CO2 changes how the upper atmosphere and ionosphere respond to a sudden stratospheric warming (SSW), with implications for future space weather.
