 ### ✨ Features and improvements
 - Catches network fetching errors such as CORS, DNS or malformed URL as actual `AJAXError` to expose HTTP request details to the `"error"` event (https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-js/pull/4822)
 - Add setVerticalFieldOfView() to public API ([#4717](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-js/issues/4717))
+- Disable sky when using globe and blend it in when changing to mercator ([#4853](https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-js/issues/4853))
 - _...Add new stuff here..._
