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 ...

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
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
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

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 ...
