Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many small endotherms employ torpor as a survival strategy to reduce energy expenditure during periods with low food availability and cold temperatures. The expression and physiology of torpor can vary substantially within species because of phenotypic plasticity and ...

Abstract Amagmatic geothermal systems in coastal locations are promising energy resources, yet the processes that localize and sustain their hot‐spring discharge remain unclear. We investigate La Jolla Beach (NW Baja California, Mexico)—one of the hottest known examples worldwide (∼100°C)—using large‐scale 3D coupled thermal–hydraulic simulations.

Achieving Transboundary Water Security Through Water Innovations: A Framework and Cases
ABSTRACT Alternative sources of freshwater, provided by various innovations, have long been available to countries facing acute water stress. We hypothesize that avoiding and/or resolving conflict with neighbors—caused by the uncertainty of continued access to shared surface water and groundwater sources—is another driver of innovation adoption ...

ABSTRACT The increasing demand for freshwater, in combination with climate change and pollution, compromises the quality and quantity of water resources. These pressures have intensified cyanobacterial blooms, including toxic events that threaten human health and aquatic ecosystems. This study complements the objectives of the Water Framework Directive
