Seemingly Simple Climate Adaptation Strategy Could Backfire
Reflecting sunlight can protect a neighborhood from scorching temperatures, but surrounding neighborhoods could suffer as a result.
Characteristics of Moist Layers over the Tropical Atlantic
In a new study, characteristics of elevated moist layers, their seasonality, spatial distribution, structure, and the coupling of mid-tropospheric circulation and convection are examined over the tropical Atlantic.
Announcing New AGU Journal Editors-in-Chief Starting in 2025
AGU is excited to welcome new Editors-in-Chief for five of our journals in 2025.
Unusual Occurrence of STEVE: An Aurora-Like Glow
STEVE is a mysterious purple-white arc near the aurora, typically seen after space disturbances called substorms. A new study reveals a rare STEVE event without a substorm, prompting questions about its origin.
Bat Poop Records Fire History
Charcoal stored in preserved guano gives researchers a new way to reconstruct regional fire histories.
Machine Learning Could Improve Extreme Weather Warnings
A deep learning technique could reduce the error in 10-day weather forecasts by more than 90%, allowing communities to better prepare for extreme events such as heat waves.
Fifteen Years Later, Scientists Locate a Lunar Impact Site
The impact crater from NASA’s LCROSS mission lies hidden in an eternally dark region of the Moon.
En una rara oportunidad, investigadores observan la formación de los valles islandeses
Durante el período previo a las recientes erupciones volcánicas cerca de la ciudad de Grindavík, científicos documentaron la formación de grabens en tiempo real.
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.
