Shallow peat is most vulnerable to high peat burn severity during wildfire
Peatlands typically act as carbon sinks, however, increasing wildfire severity and annual area burned may challenge this carbon sink status. Whilst most peat resistance to wildfire and drought research is based on deep peatlands that rarely lose their ...

Opportunistic Recharge Enhancement in Arid and Semi‐Arid Regions
Groundwater supplies are increasingly stressed by climatic trends and multiple competing uses, especially in dryland environments. We propose opportunistic recharge enhancement (ORE) as a cross‐disciplinary, scalable framework to augment groundwater supplies by strategically integrating recharge co‐benefits into existing land and water management ...

Comparative Impact of Fog and Rainfall on Vegetation in a Foggy Desert
Fog is an important water source that alleviates vegetation water stress, especially for dryland ecosystems. Comprehensive knowledge of fog and rainfall effects can help us better understand dryland vegetation responses to current and future climates ...

Bayesian Estimates of Ice Optical Properties for Lake Ice Modeling
Abstract Ice and snow cover on frozen lakes is a natural barrier to solar radiation, reducing the transfer of energy that controls under‐ice thermal dynamics and biological productivity. Direct measurements of under‐ice irradiance remain scarce due to logistical constraints.

ABSTRACT Water potential gradients govern water fluxes, and plants respond with species‐specific hydraulic traits that influence ecosystem function. While understanding these traits is key to predicting vegetation responses to climate change, traditional methods like the pressure chamber limit temporal resolution and continuity.

Ecohydrology for water, biodiversity, ecosystem services, and resilience in Africa
Africa is a continent of great natural resources, societal potential, and beauty. The rapid growth of population of people and cattle in sub-Saharan Africa has dramatically increased the pressure on the environmental resources, reducing their resilience ...

Ecohydrology of riparian forests in the Orinoco River Basin
This paper describes some important ecohydrological interactions within riparian forests in lower Orinoco using the Caura and Mapire rivers in Venezuela. The importance of riparian forests and hydrological seasonality for aquatic faunal ecology and human

Tree-ring width reveals evaporation signals in semi-arid regions of the United States
Tree-ring width chronologies have been widely used to reconstruct past hydroclimate variability, including precipitation, temperature, and streamflow.

A mesocosm approach to study the response of Sphagnum peatlands to hydrological changes: setup, optimisation and performance [PDF]
Sphagnum-dominated peatlands are major carbon pools and sinks, but these functions are threatened by climate change. There is, therefore, a need to better understand how microclimatic changes (soil temperature, soil moisture and water table depth) are ...
