Short‐Interval Fire and Climatic Drying Drive Shrubland‐to‐Herbaceous Conversion Across California
Our statewide analysis shows that woody shrublands across California are undergoing widespread conversion to herbaceous vegetation. Using multi‐decadal fractional cover data, we show that short‐interval fire in conjunction with climatic drying and human influence is driving this transformation, extending a phenomenon previously thought to be limited to

Modelling Storage‐Discharge Relationships in an Alpine Basin in the Canadian Rockies
CRHM was used to model storage‐discharge relationships for Fortress Mountain Research Basin, an alpine basin in the Canadian Rockies. The model showed reasonable predictions of snow accumulation, snowmelt, liquid soil moisture, and streamflow, and nonlinear and hysteretic storage‐discharge relationships for this alpine basin.

Macroplastic and other types of macroscopic anthropogenic litter (AL; trash, particles > 5 mm) are pervasive across ecosystems, persistent in the environment, increasing in abundance, and can degrade into microplastics (particles < 5 mm). Rivers retain and transform AL prior to export downstream, but improved predictions of AL distribution and movement

Conditions leading to exceptionally high temperatures in shallow tropical lakes
Abstract Factors leading to exceptionally high temperatures in shallow tropical waters are examined with high‐resolution measurements and application of a 3‐dimensional hydrodynamic model in an Amazon floodplain lake. Highest near‐surface (0.05 m) temperatures in open water ranged from 31.0 to 37.5°C. Within mats of floating plants maximum temperatures

Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.
