From muddy marvels to hidden landscapes: Diverse visitor experiences in Tasmanian wetlands and their implications for enhancing human–nature connections

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Globally, wetland conservation is impeded by a lack of public awareness, appreciation and advocacy for these conservation‐dependant environments. To address this issue, the global policy response has increasingly focused on provisioning meaningful experiences for people in wetlands.

Potential impact of climate change on improved and unimproved water supplies in Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With significant climate change predicted in Africa over the next century, this chapter explores a key question: how will rural water supplies in Africa be affected? Approximately 550 million people in Africa live in rural communities and are reliant on

A method for determining elements for elemental signature analysis of groundwater and treated Lake Mead water

open access: yes, 1999
Elemental signature analysis (ESA) is a term that describes the use of the presence/absence or relative abundance of elements in samples. Several studies have been performed on the identification of these elemental signatures or fingerprints of water ...

Fuzzy postprocessing of seasonal climate forecasts for semiarid river basins

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Meteorological forecasts from AI‐based fuzzy rule‐based system (FRB) are compared to linear scaling (LS) and quantile mapping (QM). Seasonal forecasts from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) are considered. Results show that the highest skill is achieved for the FRB approach.

Artificial Recharge of Groundwater Symposium

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1986
An experimental session on artificial recharge of groundwater was held at the AGU Fall Meeting in San Francisco, December 8–13, 1985. The session combined a state‐of the‐art oral presentation followed by poster papers and ending with a panel discussion about research needs.Organization of the symposium, with mixed presentation, was not straightforward.

ECOSTRESS‐derived semi‐arid forest temperature and evapotranspiration estimates demonstrate drought and thinning impacts

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ECOSTRESS lands surface temperature (LST) data are sensitive to forest thinning, regional drought, and their interaction. Consistent with high‐resolution UAV images, ECOSTRESS LST data indicate thinned forest had significantly greater temperature across years.

Quantification of Groundwater Recharge in the Karvan Aquifer in Isfahan (Iran) Using the CRD Model [PDF]

open access: yesآب و فاضلاب, 2011
Identification of the net groundwater recharge is essential for groundwater modeling and water resources management.  Due to its simplicity and its minimum stochastic parameter requirements, the CRD model has been widely applied to estimate recharge ...

Land Use Influence on the Characteristics of Groundwater Inputs to the Great Bay Estuary, New Hampshire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This research examines the sources and factors affecting nutrient-laden groundwater discharge to the Great Bay Estuary. To further understand this relationship, examination of groundwater residence time, a review of historic land uses, and nitrate source
