Optimizing Total Suspended Solids Mitigation in a Data‐Limited Watershed: A Network‐Based Advection–Reaction Model Applied to the Canal del Dique, Colombia

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Total Suspended Solids (TSS) significantly degrade water quality by reducing light penetration and oxygen availability, while facilitating the transport of toxic contaminants. Managing TSS in watersheds requires an understanding of both hydrological connectivity and pollutant dynamics; however, these efforts are significantly constrained by ...

Salinity Variations in the Venice Lagoon (Italy) Induced by Safeguard Structures: A Challenging Trade‐Off Between Urban and Ecosystem Protection in the Face of Climate Change

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Estuaries provide vital ecosystem services, but the communities and ecosystems they support are increasingly threatened by flooding driven by climate change and sea level rise. Hard‐engineering solutions like levees, seawalls, river diversions, and storm‐surge barriers help mitigate flooding risk, but their combined operation within the same ...
