Beyond Dams: Reservoirs as a Lens Onto the Hydrosocial Cycle
Synthesizing literature on reservoir inflows, outflows, and operations reveals hydrosocial complexities of water management, which are often overlooked in critical social scientific scholarship on dams. ABSTRACT There is a need for more social scientific scholarship on reservoirs.

Wildfire Drivers, Impacts, and Predictive Modeling: Opportunities in Sensing and Machine Learning
Abstract Wildfire prediction and management remain inherently challenging because fire behavior is governed by complex, nonlinear interactions among the atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and human influences. Intensified by climate change and anthropogenic activities, wildfires are becoming more severe in portions of the world, degrading air quality ...

Despite substantial carbon benefits, active restoration within selectively logged forests may impede the recovery of forest‐dependent biodiversity. This challenges the common assumption embedded within nature‐based climate solutions that carbon and biodiversity outcomes will necessarily align.

Underwater imaging without colour distortions requires RAW capture
Abstract Consumer cameras are not designed to be scientific instruments, yet they are increasingly used in science not just to see, but to measure. This is possible because camera sensors respond approximately linearly to the light they receive, a property that can, in principle, support quantitative measurements of colour.

Abstract Turbulence dissipation rate (EDR) governs the conversion of turbulent kinetic energy to heat and thereby controls vertical mixing, transport, and energy exchange in the convective boundary layer (CBL). The spatiotemporal structure of EDR remains poorly constrained, as observations are limited to point measurements or sparse vertical profiles ...

How Can the Latent Heat Entrainment Flux in the Convective Boundary Layer be Characterized?
Abstract A proposed theoretical description of the latent heat entrainment flux at the top of a convective boundary layer (CBL) was tested. It is related to the vertical velocity scale times the ratio of the water vapor mixing ratio (WVMR) gradient to the Brunt‐Väisälä frequency. This relation was tested with different LiDAR and radiosonde measurements.
