A Double-Edged Sword: The Global Oxychlorine Cycle on Mars
Global detections of oxychlorine salts reveal a complex, 4-billion-year chemical cycle on Mars. They can act as de-icing agents, oxidants, a hazard and a vital resource for future human exploration.
Coastal Wetlands Restoration, Carbon, and the Hidden Role of Groundwater
Coastal wetland restoration offers major carbon benefits, and understanding groundwater processes helps explain how these ecosystems store carbon over the long term.
Tsunamis from the Sky
Not all tsunamis come from the seafloor, some are triggered by the atmosphere, driven by fast-moving storms and pressure waves, and can strike coasts with little warning.
Bridging the Gap: Transforming Reliable Climate Data into Climate Policy
A new special collection welcomes research that bridges the gap between rigorous Essential Climate Variable (ECV) monitoring, AI analytics, and climate policy.
Hydrothermal Circulation and Its Impact on the Earth System
From a gathering of scientists at a uniquely well-preserved section of ancient oceanic crust came a monograph investigating the latest in hydrothermal fluxes and seawater chemistry.
Echoes From the Past: How Land Reclamation Slowly Modifies Coastal Environments
Reclamation of tide-influenced areas has a large impact on coastal environments through gradual modification of tidal dynamics, erosion, and siltation.
Announcing New AGU Journal Editors-in-Chief Starting in 2026
AGU is excited to welcome new Editors-in-Chief for five of our journals in 2026.
