Astronomers hope amateur enthusiasts will help them monitor Jovian weather.
Research Spotlights
Research spotlights are plain-language summaries of recent articles published in AGU’s suite of 24 journals.
Scientists Present Europe’s New Greenhouse Gas Budget
The greenhouse gas budget developed for Europe highlights carbon sources and sinks across the continent and will serve as a baseline for years to come.
Ocean Spray Is Relatively Lifeless
Organic contributions from ocean organisms are sparse in sea spray, helping to clarify predictions of its impact on the climate.
Atmospheric Effects of Hunga Tonga Eruption Lingered for Years
A new study builds on previous research of the underwater volcano’s effects on the climate.
From Sun to Earth: A New Network for Comprehensive Space Weather Monitoring
The Chinese Meridian Project combines hundreds of instruments for a detailed, three-dimensional view of the solar-terrestrial environment.
Climate Model Simulates Unusually High Heat over the Southern Ocean
U.K. researchers compare HadGEM3-GC3.1 simulations of near-surface air temperatures with those from other state-of-the-art models.
Lithospheric Oddities May Be Sculpting Continental Interiors
Researchers propose a novel explanation for vertical motions of Earth’s surface far from active tectonic plate boundaries.
Physics Meets Machine Learning for Better Cyclone Predictions
A new hybrid modeling approach combines physics-based and machine learning models to extend—and improve—path and intensity predictions of tropical cyclones.
