Robust Estimation of Absorbing Root Surface Distributions From Xylem Water Isotope Compositions With an Inverse Plant Hydraulic Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
The vertical distribution of absorbing roots is one of the most influential plant traits determining plant strategy to access below ground resources.

Mulga, a major tropical dry open forest of Australia: recent insights to carbon and water fluxes

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2016
Mulga, comprised of a complex of closely related Acacia spp., grades from a low open forest to tall shrublands in tropical and sub-tropical arid and semi-arid regions of Australia and experiences warm-to-hot annual temperatures and a pronounced dry ...

Simulation of ecohydrological processes influencing water supplies in the Tuul River watershed of Mongolia

open access: yesJournal of Hydroinformatics, 2021
Achieving sufficient water supplies for multiple uses in the watershed is a major public policy issue. Understanding the current ecohydrologic processes is essential to assess potential impacts on hydrologic regimes. The Tuul River (TR) watershed faces a

The California Environmental Flows Framework: Meeting the Challenges of Developing a Large-Scale Environmental Flows Program

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Environmental flow programs aim to protect aquatic habitats and species while recognizing competing water demands. Often this is done at the local or watershed level because it is relatively easier to address technical and implementation challenges at ...

Ecohydrology : a new paradigm for bioengineers [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologie, Agronomie, Société et Environnement, 2002
Worried about the future of freshwater resources, UNESCO launched in 1996 a new worldwide programme called ""Ecohydrology, a New Paradigm"". As a first step, the paper defines the term ""ecohydrology"" more widely.

Beyond All-Sky: Assessing Ecological Light Pollution Using Multi-Spectral Full-Sphere Fisheye Lens Imaging

open access: yesJournal of Imaging, 2019
Artificial light at night is a novel anthropogenic stressor. The resulting ecological light pollution affects a wide breadth of biological systems on many spatio-temporal scales, from individual organisms to communities and ecosystems.

Does hot and dry equal more wildfire? Contrasting short‐ and long‐term climate effects on fire in the Sierra Nevada, CA

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Climate and wildfire are closely linked. Climate regulates wildfire directly over short timescales through its effect on fuel aridity and indirectly over long timescales through vegetation productivity and the structure and abundance of fuels. Prediction

Forest Fire Regime in a Mediterranean Ecosystem: Unraveling the Mutual Interrelations between Rainfall Seasonality, Soil Moisture, Drought Persistence, and Biomass Dynamics

open access: yesFire, 2020
Frequent and severe droughts typically intensify wildfires provided that there is enough fuel in situ. The extent to which climate change may influence the fire regime and long time-scale hydrological processes may soften the effect of inter-annual ...

Measuring Floodplain Inundation Using Diel Amplitude of Temperature

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Assessment of inundation patterns across large and remote floodplains is challenging and costly. Inexpensive loggers that record the damping of the diel amplitude of temperature (DAT) when submerged compared to overlying air can indirectly indicate ...

Evaluating Basin-Scale Forest Adaptation Scenarios: Wildfire, Streamflow, Biomass, and Economic Recovery Synergies and Trade-Offs

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
Active forest management is applied in many parts of the western United States to reduce wildfire severity, mitigate vulnerability to drought and bark beetle mortality, and more recently, to increase snow retention and late-season streamflow.
