Wetlands set the pace of annual runoff in the northern Great Plains

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Interannual variability in the runoff ratio—how much annual precipitation becomes streamflow—underpins water management, flood forecasting, and biogeochemical fluxes. In most hydrologic frameworks, this variability is attributed primarily to year-to-year

open access: yes
Because original high-quality non-market valuation studies can be expensive, perhaps prohibitively so, benefits transfer (BT) approaches are often used for valuing, e.g., the outputs of multifunctional agriculture.

Can Predator Trapping Improve Waterfowl Recruitment in the Prairie Pothole Region?

open access: yes, 1995
We contrasted nest success for control areas and experimental areas in eastern North Dakota where we employed professionals to trap mammalian nest predators from late March to late July. In 1995, dabbling ducks averaged 53% nest success on four treatment blocks of 4,150 ha each; whereas on four control areas upland nesting ducks averaged 24% success ...
