They arrive as messy PDFs with complex tables, which makes it hard to track progress toward the UN Early Warnings for All (EW4All) goal of universal coverage by 2027. 3. **[ReProbe: Efficient Test-Time Scaling of Multi-Step Reasoning by Probing Internal States of Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/ni-2026-reprobe-efficient-test-time-scaling/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Test-time scaling improves LLM reasoning by sampling several candidate reasoning steps or full chains and keeping the most promising ones. 4. **[Actors, Frames and Arguments: A Multi-Decade Computational Analysis of Climate Discourse in Financial News using Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/su-2026-actors-frames-arguments-multi-decade/)** *(2026)* The paper looks at how elite financial journalism has covered climate change over time. This area matters because such coverage can influence investment and policy, yet it has received far less study than general news.
