Beyond the Metrics: Context‐Aware Calibration for Better Drain Flow Modelling

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Robust hydrological and water quality modelling is essential for advancing the understanding and management of engineered agricultural subsurface drainage systems. Achieving credible model output hinges on calibration strategies that are both rigorous and context sensitive. At the field scale, accurately capturing the dynamics of nutrient load

Farmer‐Led Strategies for Water Conservation in the Urmia Lake Basin, Iran

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the urgent issues of water scarcity and limited farmer livelihoods in the Urmia Lake basin. To address these challenges, we apply the Governance, Autonomy, Integration, and Needs orientation (GAIN) methodology. Our participatory approach revealed that farmers prioritised actionable measures for water management, yield ...

A Comparative Study on the Irrigation Suitability of Kerala's Rivers Using Fuzzy AHP and Conventional Methods

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food security in Kerala depends on effective irrigation, but poor‐quality irrigation water poses threats such as salinity, sodicity and reduced soil productivity. Although past assessments have been localised, this study presents the first comprehensive, statewide evaluation of irrigation water suitability across 44 major rivers in Kerala.

Predicting long‐term population viability for an imperiled salamander under future climate changes

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated the long‐term viability of 2 reticulated flatwoods salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) populations in response to multiple future climate change scenarios. We found that there is a high probability of extinction by 2100 under some scenarios, mostly driven by severe droughts and repeated reproductive failure. Conservation actions should focus on

Hydrochemical Characteristics of Four Retreating Glacier Forefields Off the Coast of Admiralty Bay (King George Island, Maritime Antarctic): Diverse Sources of Metals and Metalloids

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of geological, marine and anthropogenic sources on metal and metalloid concentrations in the forefields of four glaciers (Ecology, Sphinx, Tower and Windy) on King George Island, Antarctic. Water samples were collected at the beginning and end of the hydrological season (austral summer, December 2021 to February ...

Biomonitoring of Environmental Pollution Using Forest Tree Foliage Chemistry at Extremely Contaminated, Post-Industrial Sites

Atmosphere
Biomonitoring based on foliage chemistry was used to study the effects of environmental sulfur (S) pollution on forest stands. The foliage samples were collected in two forest ecosystems exposed to industrial emissions: a zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb) smelter ...
