The Effects of Planting Structure on Groundwater Depletion and Optimization Strategies in the North China Plain

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Planting structure drive agricultural water use and is critical to groundwater depletion in the North China Plain (NCP). However, the effects of planting structure changes on groundwater depletion are rarely quantified, and severely depleted areas are often overlooked in previous planting structure optimization studies.

Comparing Snow Water Equivalent Estimations From Long Short‐Term Memory Networks and Physics‐Based Models in the Western United States

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract In snowmelt‐dominated regions like the western U.S., mountain snowpacks supply 50%–70% of the total runoff. Accurate estimation of snow water equivalent (SWE) is critical for informed management of water resources, including reservoir operations, flood risk assessments, and drought mitigation. However, the spatial variability and complexity of

Large Streamflow Differences Between Forested and Urbanized Watersheds in the Energy‐Limited Eastern United States: The Role of Evapotranspiration and Impervious Surfaces

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Urban forests and other green infrastructures have been viewed as part of the “Nature‐based Solutions” (NbS) to mitigate emerging urban environmental change. This study focuses on the role of evapotranspiration (ET) in regulating water balances of small watersheds in the eastern United States.

A Robust and Efficient Continuous‐Differentiable Seepage Face Boundary Condition for Dynamic Groundwater Modeling

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Seepage boundary conditions are commonly used in groundwater simulations to allow groundwater to discharge at the upper surface of the model when groundwater head exceeds atmospheric pressure. However, the extent and transient behavior of the seepage zone are often unknown a priori and difficult to predict.

Hydrology in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: From Fragmentation to Coherent Terrestrial Hydrosphere Science

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The rapid rise of machine learning (ML) in hydrology has prompted debate about the discipline's scientific relevance. While ML often outperforms traditional models in streamflow prediction, we argue that this reflects a deeper limitation: persistent fragmentation of hydrological science itself.
