Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Detecting Land Use Change Impacts on Streamflow by Combining Field Data and Water Balance Modelling
ABSTRACT Over the last half‐century, land use changes, including deforestation, urban sprawl, and open‐pit surface mining, have accelerated across the Susurluk Basin in northwestern Türkiye. This study analysed how land use changes, damming and mining activities affected basin hydrology using empirical and analytical methods and the process‐based Water

ABSTRACT Floods are one of the leading causes of death from natural hazards in the United States (US). Better prediction of bankfull flow is needed in order to communicate potential flood risks and initiate response within forecasting frameworks. Traditional bankfull flow estimations are based on empirical equations whose accuracy is shown to be ...

Blue harvest: inland fisheries as an ecosystem service [PDF]
Global food production has increased greatly in recent years and rural livelihoods are much improved in many regions. Yet, despite this clear progress rural poverty and food insecurity remain deeply entrenched in many areas, especially in South Asia and ...

Lakes are important sentinels of climate change and may contribute over 30% of natural methane (CH4) emissions; however, no earth system model (ESM) has represented lake CH4 dynamics. To fill this gap, we refined a process‐based lake biogeochemical model

Vegetation, Ökosystemdynamik und Renaturierung von zentralasiatischen Flussauen am Beispiel des Tarim in Xinjiang, NW-China [PDF]
Naturally, the floodplains of Central Asian rivers harbour riparian, so-called ‘Tugai’ forests, reeds with Phragmites australis, and shrub communities which form a mosaic depending on the variety of available ground water.

ABSTRACT Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters worldwide. It is also expected to become more severe as climate change impacts are realised. Two‐dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic models are used to obtain reliable inundation estimations.
