Rapid Land Surface Uplift and Groundwater Recovery Observed During the Syrian War
Abstract Recent geopolitical upheaval in Syria is driving regional growth by returning populations, which increases demands on water resources. In northwest Syria, widespread cropland abandonment during the Syrian War starting in 2011 drastically changed the hydrological regime of the region.

Smart observation of management impacts on peatlands function (SmartBog) [PDF]
Peatlands are an important ecosystem due to their role in carbon sequestration as well as other ecosystem services including; climate regulation and water regulation. Peatlands cover a small fraction (~3 %) of the terrestrial surface.

Abstract Soil inorganic carbon (SIC) is critical for carbon sequestration, infiltration, and climate modeling, yet quantifying its precise spatial distribution at continental scales remains challengings. We introduce a high‐resolution (30 m) CONUS SIC map using machine learning (ML) models trained on the ISRIC World Soil Information Service (WoSIS ...

Abstract The processes of ice incorporation into rock glaciers have been difficult to quantify in both permafrost and non‐permafrost conditions. Here, we develop a numerical model that regardless of the presence of permafrost, reveals how debris eroded from hillslopes and deposited on snow can add ice mass to rock glaciers in pulses.
