Cryo‐FSC: A Dynamic Functional Connectivity Index Reveals Spatio‐Temporal Shifts in Sediment Transport in the Permafrost‐Dominated River Systems

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Cryospheric degradation in cold regions has been fundamentally altering hydrological and geomorphic processes, intensifying sediment dynamics with profound implications for water resources management. Existing sediment connectivity indices lack the dynamic resolution to capture the intricate, seasonally evolving processes unique to cold ...

Suspended Sediment Pulses and Sediment‐Discharge Relationships in Earthquake‐Affected Rivers Along the Tibetan Plateau Margins

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Large earthquakes along the Tibetan Plateau margins trigger widespread landslides that deliver substantial sediment to river networks, driving intense and long‐lasting landscape change. However, identifying and modeling the fluvial sediment responses to large earthquakes remains challenging.

A Comprehensive Calibration Framework for the Northwest River Forecast Center

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We present a comprehensive framework developed by the Northwest River Forecast Center for calibrating hydrologically diverse basins. The framework includes models for snow, soil moisture, routing, channel loss, and consumptive use. Data inputs include a wide range of open‐access datasets for meteorology, land use, topography, and land cover ...

Transformative changes of pastoral livestock production and its consequences on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau

open access: yesGrassland Research, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 35-43, March 2026.
Grassland functional zoning and spatial optimization scheme on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau. Based on multifunctionality assessment, the scheme proposes allocating 32% of regional grassland as nature reserve grasslands (biodiversity focus), 63% as livestock grazing grasslands (smart ecological–production management), and 5% as cultivated grasslands (high‐

Dramatic Decline in Organic Carbon Burial in Big Estuary Driven by Dam Construction: Insights From the Yellow River Estuary

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Estuaries and associated shelf deposits, which bury 70%–90% of global marine organic carbon, making them key sites for marine carbon burial. Variations in total organic carbon (TOC) content and the organic carbon burial rate (OCBR) in these sediments strongly influence carbon sequestration dynamics.
