Read the newest edition of Variations: Blazing a path
The latest issue of Variations, Blazing a path: current progress and needs towards improving wildfire prediction, explores the science of wildfire prediction across timescales from real-time detection though S2S and long-term climate drivers. The edition also highlights the persistent gaps in fuel and wind observations and the need for closer collaborations between researchers and stakeholders.

Internal wave momentum transport may be necessary for accurate simulation of Equatorial Pacific SST
Davenport et al. (2026) use the Tropical Pacific Ocean State Estimate (TPOSE) to investigate the role of internal gravity waves in closing the Cold Tongue momentum budget. The authors conclude that accurate simulation of Cold Tongue SST may require separate representation of turbulent and wave-driven momentum transport, informed by targeted observations and wave-resolving models.

Beyond wind-driven mixing: New insights into vertical exchange at a coastal front
Körner et al. (2026) show that symmetric instability (SI) can drive efficient vertical exchange in the northern Gulf of Mexico, transporting oxygen and heat between surface and bottom waters. High-resolution observations show that SI can transport oxygen and heat much more efficiently than turbulence alone, helping ventilate low-oxygen bottom water and influencing coastal ecosystem health.
