Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services [PDF]
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Abstract The spatial correlation of streamflow in a river network captures how flows at different locations relate to one another and influence the downstream response. In this study, we analyze the spatial correlation of streamflow and rainfall during storm events in three Texas watersheds: San Antonio (2015 and 2016 storms), Guadalupe (2018 storm ...

Abstract Thousands of saline to hypersaline lakes exist across the Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia, representing potential Mars analogs with diverse and varying salinity, pH, and oxygen conditions that remain poorly constrained. Here, we report geochemical trends in lake waters that vary across wet‐dry cycles as well as with regional location and ...

Numerical groundwater models for Edwards Aquifer systems [PDF]
ABSTRACT Numerical models have been an integral component in management of the Edwards Aquifer for over four decades. The scale and complexity of the models have varied considerably during this time, with the changes attributed to improvements in both numerical software and the conceptual models on which the models are predicated ...

Abstract Spring ecosystems in arid regions often serve as crucial biodiversity hotspots by providing some of the only reliable sources of surface water. However, anthropogenic activities and climate change have severely degraded spring ecosystems worldwide, emphasizing the need for large‐scale multidisciplinary studies informing conservation efforts ...
