Editors’ Vox
Growth and Challenges for JGR: Solid Earth
The outgoing Editor in Chief of JGR: Solid Earth reflects on his tenure and expresses appreciation to all those who contributed to the success of the journal over recent years.
Insights from Space: Satellite Observations of Arctic Change
New satellite instruments and data, plus a more comprehensive observing network, are key to increasing our understanding of past and future change in the Arctic Boreal Zone.
Understanding Material Movement in the Ocean’s Upper Layer
Computer simulations are advancing our understanding of how natural and anthropogenic materials are transported around the upper layer of the ocean.
How Chemical Processes Influence Fracture Pattern Development
Many tools of chemical analysis, experimentation, modeling, and theory have the potential to increase our understanding of how fracture patterns develop at different geological time scales.
Society’s High Stakes Game of Chance Against Nature
We can better understand the risks of natural hazards and develop more effective mitigation strategies when geoscience and social science perspectives are combined.
Hearing the Sun Tock
The appearance of sunspots—their number, duration, and location—suggests that the dynamics of the Sun’s outer layer is synchronized with an internal clock.
The Infrastructure Impacts of Solar Storms
A new book brings together insights from the space weather, geophysics, and power engineering communities to understand the characteristics and impacts of geomagnetically induced currents.
Space Weather Aviation Forecasting on a Global Scale
Under a new mandate, consortia of the world’s major space weather centers will disseminate new space-weather advisories for civil aviators representing a significant change-of-state for space weather.
Putting a Price on the Costs of Climate Related Health Impacts
Using examples from the year 2012, a new study estimates the health costs of deaths and illnesses associated with climate-sensitive events.
