Abstract Wetlandscapes—networks of hydrologically connected wetlands—can influence the transport and transformation of nutrients across watersheds. As climate change and human activity reshape wetland extent and connectivity, these landscape‐scale processes are being altered in ways that may intensify eutrophication in downstream lakes. We used Landsat‐

Fresh water influence on nutrient stoichiometry in a tropical estuary, southwest coast of India [PDF]
Cochin backwaters, a micro tidal estuary, undergo a characteristic transformation from a river-dominated system during summer monsoon to a tide-dominant system during pre-monsoon season.

The metabolic regimes of 356 rivers in the United States [PDF]
A national-scale quantification of metabolic energy flow in streams and rivers can improve understanding of the temporal dynamics of in-stream activity, links between energy cycling and ecosystem services, and the effects of human activities on aquatic ...

ABSTRACT Synthetic rating curves (SRCs) are often used to translate streamflow forecasts into flood inundation maps. Previous studies have investigated the development and errors in SRCs at local, regional, and continental scales. In this analysis, we used the latest global methodology and datasets to develop SRCs for use in flood inundation map ...

The water temperature characteristics of the Lena River at basin outlet in the summer period [PDF]
The water temperature characteristics of the Lena River at basin outlet during the summer season (June–September) are considered. The analysis is based on long-term data series covering the period from the beginning of observation (1936) to the present ...

Abstract Urbanization reshapes dissolved organic matter (DOM) sources, transport, and transformations through changes in vegetation, hydrology, and management of waste and water. Yet the impacts of urbanization on DOM are variable within and among cities.

Tracer Applications of Noble Gas Radionuclides in the Geosciences
The noble gas radionuclides, including 81Kr (half-life = 229,000 yr), 85Kr (11 yr), and 39Ar (269 yr), possess nearly ideal chemical and physical properties for studies of earth and environmental processes.

Episodic Salinization of Midwestern and Northeastern US Rivers by Road Salt
Abstract Freshwater salinization disrupts aquatic ecosystem processes such as organismal development, replenishment of dissolved oxygen, and geochemical cycling. A well‐documented but poorly understood signature of salinization to streams and rivers is “episodic salinization,” or short‐term pulses of salinity from extreme events.

Abstract Large‐scale hydrodynamic models are vital for flood risk assessment and understanding the global water cycle; however, their results can include uncertainties related to spatial resolution. Few studies have evaluated hydrodynamic models across a range of spatial resolutions, with most focusing on a few variables (e.g., discharge) and often ...

Diatom-inferred salinity records from the Arctic Siverian margin: Implications for fluvial runoff patterns during the Holocene [PDF]
Diatom assemblages were employed to study temporal changes of Siberian river runoff on the Laptev Sea shelf. Using a correlation between freshwater diatoms (%) in core-top sediments and summer surface water salinities from the inner Kara Sea, salinity ...
