Sulfur is Demanding its Place in Crop Nutrient Budgeting
Scientists advocate for a more significant consideration of sulfur from a multidisciplinary perspective as a necessary step towards sustainable crop management.
Climate Tipping Points Could Be Triggered by “Committed Warming”
Unless we rapidly reach net zero emissions, the climate will inch closer to a point of no return—even after greenhouse gas emissions are reduced.
Announcing New AGU Journal Editors-in-Chief Starting in 2024
AGU is excited to welcome new Editors-in-Chief for seven of our journals in 2024, including the founding Editor of JGR: Machine Learning and Computation.
Advancing AI and Machine Learning Beyond Predictive Capabilities
A new cross-journal special collection invites contributions that unlock the next frontier in hydrology and Earth sciences through artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Machine Learning Highlights Ways to Improve Flood Mitigation
New research shows that home flood insurance coverage is often a reactive purchase in response to flooding, while top-down policies that focus on community resilience may offer more robust protection.
Earth’s Critical Zone Remains a Mystery Without its People
Achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals may only be possible if human activities are central to critical zone science.
Exploring Just How Extreme Future Storms Could Get
A novel approach to storm simulations could help prepare for increasingly heavy precipitation events.
El cambio climático está secando a los suelos
Los suelos terrestres se están secando a medida que el planeta se calienta, pero aún no está claro que tan seco es muy seco.
