Public Spending and Water Scarcity: An Empirical Analysis of USBR Investments in the Colorado River Basin

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 61, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Rigid historical agreements, rapid population growth, and the accelerating impacts of climate change have significantly increased the complexity of water management and importance of water in the Colorado River Basin, leading to persistent and at times severe water supply shortages.

Experimental Characterization of Optical Turbulence Using Custom-Built Atmospheric Chamber for FSO Applications

IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society
Free-space optical (FSO) communication has emerged as a promising solution for high-speed, high-bandwidth wireless transmission, overcoming the spectrum congestion and licensing constraints associated with radio frequency (RF) systems.

Out of sight, out of mind: Fine‐scale measurements reveal microclimate heterogeneity for plethodontid salamanders

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Small‐bodied species comprise the bulk of global biodiversity, yet the environmental conditions to which they are exposed are poorly understood. The resulting knowledge gap is notable for ectothermic plethodontid (Family Plethodontidae) salamanders that are highly sensitive to fine‐scale microclimate (i.e., thermal and hydric) variation ...

canN2Onet—a Canadian nitrous oxide collaboration network to meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets

Environmental Research Letters
The application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer to agricultural soils results in the emission of nitrous oxide (N _2 O), accounting for ∼40% of Canada’s and 10% of global agricultural greenhouse gas emissions.

Role of Aquatic Plants in Carbon Dioxide Exchange Between the Littoral Zone of a Eutrophic MidLatitude Lake and the Atmosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Inland water is a crucial component of the land‐atmosphere carbon exchange. The role of aquatic plants in carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange has been understudied, and few studies have considered their influence on diel variation. This study analyzed 2 years of eddy covariance CO2 flux data obtained in the littoral zone of a eutrophic midlatitude ...

Developments in micrometeorological methods for methane measurements

Animal, 2013
Micrometeorological techniques can be applied to estimate methane (CH4) emissions from ruminants and livestock manure using CH4 concentration measured within the internal surface boundary layer. The main advantage of these techniques is that they are non-

On the Representativeness of UTOPIA Land Surface Model for Creating a Database of Surface Layer, Vegetation and Soil Variables in Piedmont Vineyards, Italy

Applied Sciences, 2019
The main aim of the paper is to show how, and how many, simulations carried out using the Land Surface Model UTOPIA (University of TOrino model of land Process Interaction with Atmosphere) are representative of the micro-meteorological conditions and ...

Hourly interaction between wind speed and energy fluxes in Brazilian Wetlands - Mato Grosso - Brazil

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências
Matter and energy flux dynamics of wetlands are important to understand environmental processes that govern biosphere-atmosphere interactions across ecosystems. This study presents analyses about hourly interaction between wind speed and energy fluxes in
