Abstract Coastal inundation occurs when the total height of mean sea level (MSL), tide, and surge, including subsequent propagation into estuaries, exceeds a given threshold. We developed a nonparametric Joint Probability of Maxima Method and applied to four major Australian estuaries, deriving frequency‐based exceedance thresholds and quantifying the ...

Hydrological forecasting in catchments with glaciers
The runoff forecast is crucial in Norway because the country bases most of its electricity from hydropower. The hydrological model has thus been improved for years in order to foresee the runoff in the best possible way. In Norway, there are many catchments with extensive water storage: glaciers.

Abstract Dendritic valley networks on Mars have been cited as evidence for a warm and wet Noachian Mars, permitting rainfall precipitation and surface runoff. However, the climatic conditions required to sustain rainfall on early Mars remain debated.

Abstract We use a three‐dimensional time‐dependent glacier model that couples higher‐order ice flow dynamics with multi‐dimensional englacial and supraglacial debris transport to investigate the behavior of debris‐covered glaciers and their response to climate change.

Abstract The bedrock beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet has experienced widespread viscoelastic deformation as a response to ice‐sheet changes from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) to present day. The combined changes of the ice sheet and the bedrock most likely had impacted subglacial water routes.

Advances in water resources monitoring from space [PDF]
Nimbus-5 observations indicate that over the oceans the total precipitable water in a column of atmosphere can be estimated to within + or - 10%, the liquid water content of clouds can be estimated to within + or - 25%, areas of precipitation can be ...

Effects of Temperature on Mercury Methylation and Demethylation in Boreal Wetland Soils
Abstract Wetlands are critical sites for methylmercury (MeHg) production, a neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in organisms and biomagnifies in aquatic food webs. Net MeHg production in wetland soil depends on the balance between microbially mediated MeHg production and the degradation of MeHg through both microbial and abiotic pathways.

Ecosystem‐Scale Methane Emissions From Peatlands of the Hudson Bay Lowlands
Abstract Northern peatlands are important sources of methane (CH4) in the atmosphere. However, the magnitude of CH4 emissions and their response to environmental factors are poorly constrained within the Hudson Bay Lowlands (HBL), the largest contiguous peatland complex in North America. This study investigated seasonal (April–November) eddy covariance‐

Putative Analogs of Pyrite Suns Forming in Proglacial Alaska Mudflats
Abstract Disc‐shaped pyrite suns of the Pennsylvanian age Anna Shale are thought to have formed where pressure restricted pyrite crystal growth to a flattened disc shape during diagenesis at the Anna Shale and the underlying Herrin coal boundary.
