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

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 8, Page 1799-1817, October 2026.
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.

Can Competition‐Based Programs Promote Conservation in Agriculture? Evidence From the “Most Crop per Drop” Contest

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract This paper evaluates the Arkansas “Most Crop per Drop” Irrigation Yield Contest, a novel competition‐based Extension program designed to increase the adoption of Irrigation Water Management (IWM) practices among farmers. We use survey data to classify producers into three categories: contestants, informed non‐participants with some connection ...

Hydrologic Connectivity in the Edwards Aquifer between San Marcos Springs and Barton Springs during 2009 Drought Conditions

Texas Water Journal, 2011
A study of water level data collected during the 2009 drought was conducted to determine if there is a hydrologic connection between the San Antonio segment and Barton Springs segment of the Edwards Aquifer.

Corrigenda: Epigean and hypogean Palaemonetes sp. (Decapoda, Palaemonidae) from Edwards Aquifer: An examination of trophic structure and metabolism. Subterranean Biology 14: 79–102.

Subterranean Biology, 2015
This study addresses the causes of the metabolic depression observed when examining the metabolism of hypogean versus epigean organisms. We examined the two current hypotheses regarding the cause of metabolic cave adaptation, a paucity of food and low ...

Explainable AI reveals new hydroclimatic insights for ecosystem-centric groundwater management

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Trustworthy projections of hydrological droughts are pivotal for identifying the key hydroclimatic factors that affect future groundwater level (GWL) fluctuations in drought-prone karstic aquifers that provide water for human consumption and sustainable ...

Predicting cotton growth, pod development, and lint yield responses to irrigation and cultivar differences in Southwest Texas

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract In semiarid regions, water scarcity limits root‐zone water availability, restricting cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) growth and yield. Although prior studies evaluated drought responses and cultivar variations, interactions between irrigation and cultivar‐specific dynamics—validated through process‐based models—remain underexplored in southwest

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 2902-2924, September 2026.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Long‐term evaluation of drywell managed aquifer recharge behavior using geoelectrical monitoring

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Drywells are a low‐footprint managed aquifer recharge technique with promise for recharging aquifers in California's Central Valley, where groundwater depletion has lowered the water table to more than 70‐m depth in some areas. To study the efficacy of drywells for recharge, we installed and instrumented a set of five drywells outside Fresno ...

Prediction, time variance, and classification of hydraulic response to recharge in two karst aquifers [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Many karst aquifers are rapidly filled and depleted and therefore are likely to be susceptible to changes in short-term climate variability. Here we explore methods that could be applied to model site-specific hydraulic responses, with the intent of ...
