17-Jun-2026 White roofs and urban parks reduce heat in cities, but do not offset extreme global warming Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona The implementation of reflective white roofs and new urban parks can significantly reduce temperatures in cities and decrease population vulnerability to heat waves, although these measures are not sufficient to counteract the projected increase of more than 6 °C by 2100. This is demonstrated by a recent study led by the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (ICTA-UAB), Spain. Journal Urban Climate

15-Jun-2026 [Research article] Cyprus earth observation data cube towards water resource management in the context of climate crisis Big Earth Data A new study published in Big Earth Data describes the development of the National Earth Observation Data Cube of Cyprus as a modern software-based infrastructure for efficiently storing, managing, and analyzing the rapidly growing volume of Earth observation data. It further demonstrates its value through a water resource monitoring case under the Mediterranean climate crisis and highlights the potential of semantic classification for more generalized and efficient environmental monitoring. An online platform has been developed and welcomes users to access the CEODC ecosystem at https://cypruscube.com/, while all tools and services are also integrated within the ERATOSTHENES Regional Exploitation Platform: https://rep.eratosthenes.org.cy/.

12-Jun-2026 Integrating multiomics and whole slide imaging for predicting the malignant transformation of precancerous rectal lesions Xia & He Publishing Inc. Predicting the malignant transformation of rectal precancerous lesions remains challenging because conventional Whole Slide Images (WSIs) capture morphological information but lack molecular insight. Multiomics data provide complementary biological signals that often precede visible morphological changes. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based multimodal framework integrating WSI and multiomics data for accurate early prediction of malignant transformation.
