Is damaging hail getting worse? An ESSL-led study published in Nature Geoscience finds that very large hail is modelled to occur most frequently in South America, the United States, and South Africa, but Europe shows the strongest increase in very large hail frequency. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Climate change shifts the North Pacific storm track polewards - Nature
An observation-based storm-track proxy shows that the winter North Pacific storm track has shifted substantially polewards, suggesting regional impacts on precipitation and warming patterns, with implications for temperature variability and extreme events.

Jupiter’s moon Europa may currently have little to no active faulting at its seafloor, according to a modelling study published in Nature Communications. This prediction challenges previous assumptions and could have implications for the potential habitability of Europa’s subsurface ocean. 🧪 🔭
Little to no active faulting likely at Europa’s seafloor today - Nature Communications
In this study, the authors model the current mechanical properties of the seafloor of Jupiter’s icy moon Europa, and find those rocks to be too strong to allow the kind of fracturing that, on Earth, enables rock–water chemical reactions on which chemosynthetic life relies.
