Assessing the influence of calibration methodology and model structure on glacio-hydrological simulations in the Cheakamus River Basin, British Columbia, Canada

Journal of Hydrology X, 2022
As glaciers across the world continue to recede, there is a concern that their loss as a fresh water reservoir within mountainous basins will have a negative impact on stream temperatures and downstream water resources.

Temporal variations in macroinvertebrate communities from the tributaries in the Three Gorges Reservoir Catchment, China

Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2017
Background The seasonal variations in macroinvertebrate communities in tropical, temperate and subarctic regions have been observed and well documented to date, but similar studies conducted in subtropical rivers at the regional scale are relatively rare.

Estimating the photosynthetically active radiation under clear skies by means of a new approach [PDF]

Advances in Science and Research, 2015
The k-distribution method and the correlated-k approximation of Kato et al. (1999) is a computationally efficient approach originally designed for calculations of the broadband solar radiation by dividing the solar spectrum in 32 specific spectral bands ...

Complex drought patterns robustly explain global yield loss for major crops

Scientific Reports, 2022
Multi-purpose crops as maize, rice, soybean, and wheat are key in the debate concerning food, land, water and energy security and sustainability. While strong evidence exists on the effects of climate variability on the production of these crops, so far ...

Dissolved organic matter regulates nutrient limitation and growth of benthic algae in northern lakes through interacting effects on nutrient and light availability

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, 2020
Widespread increases in dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentration across northern lakes can alter rates of primary production by increasing nutrient availability and decreasing light availability.

MATISSE: an ArcGIS tool for monitoring and nowcasting meteorological hazards [PDF]

Advances in Science and Research, 2015
Adverse meteorological conditions are one of the major causes of accidents in aviation, resulting in substantial human and economic losses. For this reason it is crucial to monitor and early forecast high impact weather events.
