River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Multidecadal drought impacts on the Lower Colorado Basin with implications for future management

Communications Earth & Environment
Overallocation of Colorado River water and groundwater alongside multidecadal drought underscore the need to understand water-resource dynamics. Here we assess water-storage variations using satellites, regional modeling, and monitoring to inform future ...

Information Supply Chain Gaps for Hard‐to‐Reach Communities: A Solution‐Oriented Framework From Weather Service Insights

Community Science, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Despite advancements in forecasting and warning technologies, some communities still face barriers to accessing essential weather and climate information. These gaps disproportionately affect individuals with limited digital access, unstable housing, or limited English proficiency, leading to uneven impacts during high‐impact weather events ...

Subsurface Vertical Connectivity Shapes Solute Transport to Montane Streams: Insights From Watershed‐Scale Geophysics‐Informed Modeling

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Headwater catchments provide essential water and nutrients to downstream ecosystems. The timing and evolution of their transport is shaped in part by the “invisible” subsurface structure but have been largely unexplored at the watershed scale.

Scaling and Uncertainty in Soil Moisture Modelling: A Probabilistic Deep Learning Perspective

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
A probabilistic Gaussian Mixture Long Short‐Term Memory framework is used to investigate soil moisture dynamics across the continental United States using meteorological forcings and physiographic attributes. Predictions are evaluated at unseen International Soil Moisture Network sites to ensure realistic regional transfer.
