Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Over complex terrain, hourly precipitation occurrence estimates are often distorted by weak, persistent, and mistimed wet hours that are poorly constrained by independent time‐step classification. Using 1,232 hourly gauge records over the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP), we develop a boundary‐aware physical‐constraint framework that learns ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1704-1734, August 2026.ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract The carbon budget of floodplain lakes is regulated by natural hydrological processes, yet the role of human interventions, including cascade river‐lake hydraulic projects, remains unclear. We evaluated the combined effects of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) located on the Yangtze River and the proposed lake‐specific hydraulic projects (LHPs) on the

Risk Analysis of the River Diversion Under Construction of Cascade Hydropower Stations
工程科学与技术, 2014 :The temporal distribution of the flood of the hydropower station can be altered when the upstream hydropower station is constructed synchronously, which may lead to the inapplicability of current diversion risk estimation method.Considering the ...

Stability evaluation method for high slope based on fuzzy cloud theory combined with weights
Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2017 The high slope of the hydropower project is a complex system jointly affected by many internal and external factors. There are different kinds of methods used for overall stability evaluation of high slopes, but these traditional methods usually have ...

Riverine Biogeochemical Exports From Major Watersheds to the Northwest Patagonian Estuarine Network
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract River discharge considerably influences marine ecosystems through hydrological and biogeochemical drivers. Measuring baseline variability of riverine inputs, and their relation to anthropogenic land‐use impacts and global climate stressors affecting watersheds is therefore crucial for managing coastal marine ecosystems.

Hidden Crisis in Off‐Stream Reservoirs From Their High Sedimentation and Ageing Risks
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Aging dams and reservoir sedimentation pose a growing threat globally. While large dams on streams dominate scientific attention, the small, especially off‐stream reservoirs are vital to rural communities but receive disproportionately less attention. This study first quantifies the proportion of off‐stream reservoirs in the United States (58%)

Airborne Observations Reveal Underestimated Riverine Methane Emissions Across the Amazon
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.Abstract Strongly increasing trends in global methane in recent decades highlight the importance of understanding source‐sink attributions and climate feedback mechanisms, especially for large natural sources like wetlands. Here, we present an analysis of airborne methane observations above the Amazon Basin conducted from December 2022 through January ...
