Impacts of Climate Change on Groundwater Quality in the Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain: A Review

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This review integrates hydrogeological and geochemical processes to assess the impacts of climate change on groundwater quality in the Northern Atlantic Coastal Plain (NACP). Projected changes in air temperature, precipitation, and sea‐level rise are expected to influence groundwater recharge, discharge, storage, and seawater intrusion in ...

Strong diel variation in the activity of insect taxa sampled by Malaise traps

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 533-546, June 2026.
Malaise traps sampled different communities during mornings (06:00–12:00), afternoons (12:00–16:00), evenings (18:00–22:00), and nights (22:00–06:00), highlighting the difference in diel rhythm between taxa. The highest diversity and abundance of insects were found during afternoons, the lowest diversity during night, and the lowest abundance during ...
