Adding the Farmer Domain to Aquifer Recharge: Insights From Smallholder Farmers' Natural Water Retention Measures in the Danube–Tisza Interfluve, Hungary

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper describes and analyzes recharge practices in Bács‐Kiskun County, Hungary, within what can be categorized as the farmer domain. Such locally embedded aquifer recharge practices remain underexplored in Hungary. Current research and funding largely focus on large‐scale Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) interventions emphasizing intended ...

Possibilities for all-year navigation in Saimaa Canal and in the planned Kymijoki and Mäntyharju canals

open access: yes, 2000
Based on the studies on increasing the efficiency of winter navigation conducted in 1995-2000, it can be concluded that continuing inland navigation throughout the year can be realized with certain preconditions.

Quantifying Colonisation Pressure as a Driver of Secondary Spread During the Dreissena polymorpha Invasion of German River Networks

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have become a major component of global change, yet the processes governing secondary spread after initial introductions remain insufficiently resolved. A specific and central gap is the lack of a spatially explicit and temporally dynamic quantification of colonisation pressure, despite its presumed importance for ...

Water quality modeling for the Kennet and Avon Canal, a navigational canal in an inland catchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Kennet and Avon Canal in southern England is experiencing severe water quality problems caused by inorganic sediment and algae. These water quality problems are affecting the angling sport of fishermen downstream of the confluence of the canal with ...

What turns us off about green and blue spaces in cities? Understanding perceived problems and unpleasant experiences for more just urban planning, design and management

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2393-2409, July 2026.
Abstract The planning, design and management of urban green and blue spaces necessitate trade‐offs between these spaces' many benefits and their drawbacks, but knowledge of perceived problems and unpleasant experiences in urban green and blue spaces remains limited.

A framework to evaluate and identify development requirements for land‐surface models at km‐scale resolution: Application to a semi‐arid and mountainous region

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 779, July 2026 Part B.
This article provides a first evaluation of land‐surface models at the km‐scale resolutions at which they are used in weather and Earth‐system models. At these resolutions, the lateral transfers of water that organize landscapes play an important role in predicting evaporation correctly. Riparian processes and human water management for irrigation need

PROPOSED GUIDELINES ON DEVELOPING THE OPTIMISATION MODEL FOR PASSAGE PLANNING IN INLAND WATERWAYS NAVIGATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Road transport networks are overloaded by the increasing number of vehicles [1]. This has resulted in the redirection and the increasing intensity of navigation on rivers, canals and lakes.

Survival and Behavior of Amphibians in a Seasonally Flooded Tropical Forest

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
How do tropical amphibians survive seasonal flooding? A three‐year capture–mark–recapture study in Costa Rica revealed species‐specific responses to flood events, with flooding reducing apparent survival in some species while others persisted through behavioral adaptations and use of arboreal refugia.

Inland navigation and land use interact to impact European freshwater biodiversity [PDF]

open access: yes
Inland navigation in Europe is proposed to increase in the coming years, being promoted as a low-carbon form of transport. However, we currently lack knowledge on how this would impact biodiversity at large scales and interact with existing stressors ...
