Radar Specularity Content Indicates a Strong Geothermal Heat Flow Gradient in Antarctica's South Pole Basin

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Accurate estimates of geothermal heat flow (GHF) are critical for predicting basal melting and identifying stable sites for ancient ice, yet GHF remains one of the least constrained boundary conditions for the Antarctic Ice Sheet. We evaluate nine published Antarctic GHF models against radar‐derived specularity content in the South Pole Basin (

A framework for in‐stream jams formed by snow avalanche‐delivered large wood

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Large wood delivered by avalanches organizes into blanket or transport jam complexes.Jam complexes increase channel width and promote pool and bar formation. Avalanche frequency and magnitude, which are dependent on hillslope angle and roughness characteristics, controls jam complex type.

A novel framework for analysing river planform characteristics in data‐scarce regions using remote sensing data

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Using a three‐step framework of data preprocessing, analysis and interpretation, we provide insights into the seasonal and annual pattern of morphological changes, the overall bed form and dynamics and the location of morphological uniform river sections to assess the current morphological river state in data‐scarce regions.

A Targeted Approach for Mapping Groundwater Discharge to Surface Water and Fish Thermal Refuge in Four Lake Ontario Tributaries

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Understanding groundwater discharge to surface water is crucial for ecosystems, water quality, and resource management. A flexible methodology was developed to first predict and then identify cold‐water zones and significant groundwater discharge areas in four key Lake Ontario tributaries.

Anthropogenic interference and climatic change control long‐term dissolved silicate variation in the Yellow River

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Dissolved silicate (DSi) export from rivers is shaped by both natural processes and human activities. Using long‐term observations at Lijin station combined with chemical weathering and reservoir silicon cycling models, we reconstructed annual DSi fluxes and source‐sink dynamics in the Yellow River Basin since the 1980s.

Predicting potential Arctic kelp distribution and lower‐depth biomass from seafloor irradiance

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Kelps have an extensive distribution in Arctic coastal waters. However, quantifying their role in the Arctic food web and carbon cycle is challenged by the scarcity of documented geographical distribution, standing stocks and production. Here we present a framework based on an empirical function to predict the potential kelp distribution and ...

Associating Local‐Scale Physical Habitat Assemblages With Reach‐Scale Stream Hydrogeomorphological Types in Mountain Headwater Catchments

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 527-546, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Building an understanding of river ecosystems often involves integrating information from different locations, spatial scales and points in time. Geomorphologists and ecologists have long considered ways to explore river ecosystems at different, hierarchical, spatial scales so that features observed locally can be linked to the character of ...

Hydrological and microbial dynamics in an Arctic wastewater infiltration system

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Passive wastewater treatment systems are widely used in the Arctic, but studies addressing the vadose zone dynamics that influence the operation and performance of subsurface or soil‐based infiltration systems, such as rapid infiltration basins, are rare.

Floodplain Conservation Versus Landscape Development—How to Tackle the Multifunctional Management Issue

open access: yesWIREs Water, Volume 13, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The ability to perform a number of ecosystem functions is degraded by the inappropriate damming of agricultural floodplains (by levee construction) or by the continuous urban expansion, where flood protection is justified but at the cost of affecting the environmental stability of the wider landscape.

Uncertainty Representation and Propagation in Flood Risk Modeling Under Climate Change: A Systematic Review

open access: yesWIREs Climate Change, Volume 17, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Review of the uncertainty sampling and its propagation across the flood risk modeling chain. ABSTRACT This systematic review examines how uncertainty is sampled and propagated through interconnected model chains in climate‐induced flood risk assessments.
