The birth of a field through a marriage of scales: urban meteorological modeling meets regional climate modeling
Urban meteorological modeling and regional climate modeling developed largely independently, with each discipline addressing different aspects of atmospheric processes across space and time. In this review, I show that urban climate modeling did not arise as a simple scaling extension of urban meteorological modeling or an add-on to regional climate modeling, but instead emerged through the sel…

Earth’s dimming mirror: cloud contraction and the rise of albedo governance
Earth has reflected progressively less solar radiation since the start of the satellite era (1979), amplifying the planetary energy imbalance. Satellite analyses attribute the trend primarily to circulation-driven contraction of reflective cloud regimes, whereas process-based studies emphasize surface reflectivity changes. We argue that these perspectives are dynamically linked: as cloud cover …

Opposing effects of vegetation structural and physiological changes on future flash drought risk in East China
China is a global hotspot of both flash drought and vegetation change. However, how vegetation responses to rising CO2 levels will influence the characteristics of future flash droughts remains largely unquantified. Using a high-resolution land surface model, this study utilized sensitivity experiments to quantify the independent contributions of leaf area index (LAI) changes and CO2-induced ph…

Beyond localized hotspots: hazard connectivity in spatially compound rainfall-coastal storm events
Compound flooding is commonly assessed through the co-occurrence of multiple hazards at a single location. However, extreme weather systems can also generate simultaneous impacts across geographically separated regions, creating systemic challenges for emergency response and risk management. Here, we investigate spatially compound rainfall-coastal storm events along the ∼1600 km Spanish Mediter…

Does hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis occur in seagrass beds? Insights from whole-ecosystem stable isotope labelling
Seagrass beds are blue carbon ecosystems; however, they release methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas. Although likely important, the influence of primary production on methanogenic pathways remains understudied. We labelled intact seagrass-sediment cores and in situ seagrass beds with 13C-dissolved inorganic carbon (13C-DIC) to trace the transfer to 13C-CH4 over a short (<24 h) and long (35 d…
