Peak Groundwater: Aquifer‐Scale Limits to Groundwater Withdrawals

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract “Peak Groundwater” is the maximum withdrawal rate of groundwater from an aquifer system that precedes a decline in withdrawals resulting from aquifer depletion. This paper traces generalizable phases in groundwater‐withdrawal regimes in individual aquifer systems and their associated impacts on eco‐ and geosystem services. The concept seeks to

Calculating Vegetation Index-Based Crop Coefficients for Alfalfa in the Mesilla Valley, New Mexico Using Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (HLS) Data and Eddy Covariance Flux Tower Data

Remote Sensing
The goal of this study is to investigate the usefulness of the relatively new 30 m spatial and 0.67 and RMSE < 0.15). ETc prediction resulted in an MAE ranging between 0.35- and 0.64-mm day−1, an MSE ranging between 0.20- and 0.75-mm day−1 and an MAPD ...

Trees Enhance Rock Moisture Storage: A Major Pool in Karst Drylands and Crucial During Droughts

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Woody plant encroachment is a global phenomenon, observed in many of the world's drylands. In those with shallow soils overlying karst geology, rock moisture can be an important source of water for woody plants. This source can be particularly important for trees to maintain basic physiological functions during extended droughts, which are ...

Large variability in satellite-based estimates of irrigation water use

Environmental Research: Water
As competition for water resources intensifies, especially in water-scarce regions, there is a growing need to manage water usage effectively, particularly in irrigated agriculture.

Spatiotemporal prediction of drought-driven phenology-based cotton yield impacts in Texas dryland systems

Smart Agricultural Technology
Drought is a major environmental stressor limiting crop productivity, with dryland cotton systems particularly vulnerable due to their dependence on precipitation.

Modeling the Feasibility of Reducing Chloride Concentrations in an Urban Lake due to Road Salt Runoff

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 61, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Salt pollution has become prominent over the past 80 years in freshwater ecosystems across the Midwest United States. This study focuses on chloride dynamics in Lake Wingra, a shallow, urban lake in Madison, Wisconsin. Since the 1940s, chloride concentrations have risen 30‐fold to over 100 mg L−1.

Evaluation of ECOSTRESS Collection 2 Evapotranspiration Products: Strengths and Uncertainties for Evapotranspiration Modeling

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract The ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) collects thermal observations from the International Space Station to support evapotranspiration (ET) research at fine spatial resolutions (70 m × 70 m). Initial ET from ECOSTRESS Collection 1 was used in scientific research and applications, though subsequent ...

A review of satellite-derived terrestrial evapotranspiration: theories, methods and products

Ecological Processes
Accurately estimating terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET), the second-largest hydrologic flux in the terrestrial water cycle, is vital for understanding global water and carbon exchanges. It is difficult to measure and estimate terrestrial ET at regional

Water pricing and markets: Principles, practices and proposals

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 487-514, May 2025.
Abstract The allocation of water across space and time is a key challenge of water governance, with demand and supply often not well matched over time and place. Best practice water pricing and markets may promote water conservation, yet their application is limited.

Remotely Sensed High‐Resolution Soil Moisture and Evapotranspiration: Bridging the Gap Between Science and Society

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract This paper reviews the current state of high‐resolution remotely sensed soil moisture (SM) and evapotranspiration (ET) products and modeling, and the coupling relationship between SM and ET. SM downscaling approaches for satellite passive microwave products leverage advances in artificial intelligence and high‐resolution remote sensing using ...
