Research spotlights are plain-language summaries of recent articles published in AGU’s suite of 24 journals.
Improving Air Quality in China’s Greater Bay Area
New simulations show how reducing residential and agricultural pollution outside the Greater Bay Area could improve public health inside this megalopolis and across China.
A Better Way to Understand Drought
New models should consider drought a process, not merely a product, and should factor in the huge variety of causes, effects, and feedbacks that play out in the real world.
The Looming Crisis of Sinking Ground in Mexico City
New research reveals the cause of Mexico City’s rapidly sinking and fracturing ground.
Tracing Water from River to Aquifer
A new technique using dissolved noble gas tracers sheds light on how water moves through an aquifer, with implications for water resources and their vulnerability to climate change.

Biogeochemical floats provide an improved picture of ocean mixing and oxygen movement in the North Atlantic Ocean.
拉丁美洲环境观测网络的缺口
尽管拉丁美洲对全球碳和水循环具有显著影响,但其在FLUXNET站点中所占的比例相对较小,这限制了该观测网络在该地区的代表性。
Extreme Rainfall Statistics May Shift as U.S. Climate Warms
Precipitation data and high-resolution modeling suggest that extreme rainfall events under a changing climate will be shorter, more intense, and more widely spread out.
Upward Lightning Takes Its Cue from Nearby Lightning Events
Lightning in a thunderstorm changes the electromagnetic field in a way that sparks upward lightning from tall structures.
