Exhumation History of the Sangre de Cristo Range, Colorado, From Mid‐ to Low‐Temperature Thermochronology: New Insights Into Laramide Contraction and Oligocene–Miocene Extension in the Northern Rio Grande Rift, USA

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Sangre de Cristo Range in southern Colorado records a complex tectonic history that includes Late Cretaceous–Eocene Laramide contraction and Oligocene–Quaternary Rio Grande rift extension. We present new thermochronologic data (40Ar/39Ar, fission‐track, (U‐Th)/He) and thermal history models that provide insight into this polyphase history ...

Ediacaran–Cambrian High‐Strain Melt‐Present Deformation of the Archean Charcot Province, East Antarctica

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The assembly of Gondwana involved several Pan‐African orogens, although their extension into ice‐covered Antarctica remains contentious. Particularly problematic is our understanding of the Kuunga orogenic system in East Antarctica, including its eroded architecture and temporal evolution. The remote Charcot Province, at the easternmost extent

Hidden Crisis in Off‐Stream Reservoirs From Their High Sedimentation and Ageing Risks

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Aging dams and reservoir sedimentation pose a growing threat globally. While large dams on streams dominate scientific attention, the small, especially off‐stream reservoirs are vital to rural communities but receive disproportionately less attention. This study first quantifies the proportion of off‐stream reservoirs in the United States (58%)

Adaptive Turbine Replacement Improves Hydropower Flexibility in a Changing Climate

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Hydropower plants will operate under new conditions as water regimes shift, reservoir operating rules evolve, and the grid requires flexible balancing of wind and solar. Hydropower plant turbine systems are traditionally designed to operate at the highest efficiency within narrow ranges of flow and reservoir levels while deviations from design

Estimating Baseline Flow Resistance Parameters for Remote Sensing River Discharge (RSQ) From River Morphology Characteristics

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study demonstrates that flow resistance in rivers, quantified via calibration of a modified Manning's equation, can inform its estimation from channel hydrometric information available from regional or global datasets for a limited set (N = 14) of rigorously calibrated river reaches in Alaska and with less certainty in a large set (N ...
