Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Evaluating Travel Times Beneath an Artificial Recharge Pond Using Sulfur Hexafluoride [PDF]

, 2005
Draft rules for artificial recharge operations, which use recycled waste water as a source water, require minimum travel times to production wells in California. Deliberate tracer experiments are the accepted method for determining travel times.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.

Automated Lawn Maintenance: An Agronomic and Operational Review of Turf Health, Biodiversity, and Field Performance

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

Implications of Projected Climate Change for Groundwater Recharge in the Western United States [PDF]

, 2016
Existing studies on the impacts of climate change on groundwater recharge are either global or basin/ location-specific. The global studies lack the specificity to inform decision making, while the local studies do little to clarify potential changes ...

Support, reciprocity, and kinship as seeds of Indigenous family resilience during COVID‐19

Family Relations, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Our goal was to better understand the impact of COVID‐19 on Indigenous family coping. The focal research question was the following: What protective factors do Indigenous women cite as buffering stressors related to COVID‐19 for themselves and their families? Background During the COVID‐19 pandemic, Indigenous peoples experienced the

The Effect of Mine‐Related Groundwater Use and Management on Surface Water in the Middle Humboldt River Basin

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract The Humboldt River, in Northern Nevada, USA, is a source of water for agricultural, municipal, and industrial uses. Mining has been active in Nevada since the 1800s. The recognition that groundwater withdrawal for many purposes—including mining—has the potential to deplete streamflow has prompted studies of the Humboldt River Basin.
