Population genetic structure of a Chihuahuan Desert endemic mammal, the desert pocket gopher, Geomys arenarius. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
The desert pocket gopher, Geomys arenarius, is a burrowing mammal endemic to the biogeographically complex Chihuahuan Desert. Multilocus nuclear and mitochondrial DNA sequence data revealed concordant population structure within this species. Distribution of likely habitable soils is consistent with population structure, and the population structure is

Gene flow and species delimitation in fishes of Western North America: Flannelmouth (Catostomus latipinnis) and Bluehead sucker (C. Pantosteus discobolus). [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2020
Phylogenomic patterns and proposed taxonomic revisions were examined in two species with dissimilar life histories codistributed in the highly modified Colorado River, the flannelmouth sucker (Catostomus latipinnis) and the bluehead sucker (C. Pantosteus discobolus).

Tailings storage facilities flood exposure assessment using a 2D hydrodynamic model

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 15, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Minimizing environmental pollution from Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) is one of the key goals of the mining sector. While much attention is given to risks from potential catastrophic failures of large TSFs, there is also a need to assess risks due to noncatastrophic but more frequent releases of contaminants.

Relic Groundwater and Prolonged Drought Confound Interpretations of Water Sustainability and Lithium Extraction in Arid Lands

Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Demand for lithium for batteries is growing rapidly with the global push to decarbonize energy systems. The Salar de Atacama, Chile holds ∼42% of the planet's reserves in the form of brine hosted in massive evaporite aquifers. The mining of these brines and associated freshwater use has raised concerns over the environmental responsibility of ...

Transcontinental retroarc sediment routing controlled by subduction geometry and climate change (Central and Southern Andes, Argentina)

Basin Research, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 3406-3437, December 2021., 2021
The Andean cordillera, the Himalayan collisionorogen, and the Apennine thrust belt are archetypes of different orogens associatedwith different sedimentary basins. Sediment storage capacity, maximum inforedeeps where slab retreat induces rapid subsidence of the downgoing plate, isminimum in broken retroarc basins where flat‐slab subduction leads to ...

Data‐driven flood emulation: Speeding up urban flood predictions by deep convolutional neural networks

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 14, Issue 1, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Computational complexity has been the bottleneck for applying physically based simulations in large urban areas with high spatial resolution for efficient and systematic flooding analyses and risk assessment. To overcome the issue of long computational time and accelerate the prediction process, this paper proposes that the prediction of ...
