Variation and Drivers of Water Chemistry in a Low‐Relief Wetlandscape

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 10, October 2026.
Dissolved organic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, P and NH4+ and concentrations were higher in wetland water than nearby surficial groundwater. Our findings also suggest that seasonal variation in biological activity and hydrological dynamics controlled wetland water chemistry, while groundwater chemistry was primarily governed by saturation of solute ...

Waterbird Use of Sheetwater Wetlands in Iowa’s Prairie Pothole Region

open access: yesWetlands, 2015
Large expanses of land across midcontinental North America have been heavily modified by installation of artificial drainage to convert prairie pothole wetlands into tillable areas. Drained potholes are observed as sheetwater wetlands in agricultural fields, are valued by migratory waterbirds, and have only been studied in limited contexts.

Planting miscanthus instead of row crops may increase the productivity and economic performance of farmed potholes

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, 2021
Climate change projections indicate that precipitation events in the central United States are expected to become more intense, more frequent in the spring, and less frequent in the summer.

Creating a Detailed Wetland Inventory with Sentinel-2 Time-Series Data and Google Earth Engine in the Prairie Pothole Region of Canada

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of Canada and the United States represent a unique mapping challenge. They are dynamic both seasonally and year-to-year, are very small, and frequently altered by human activity. Many efforts have been made to

Probabilistic Wetland Maps for Mapping Soil Carbon Stock Distribution Across the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Inland freshwater wetlands are poorly mapped and represented despite disproportionately storing soil organic carbon (SOC) relative to their surface area. Here, we assess if digital soil mapping models improve by adding a spatially continuous wetland probability, the Wetland Intrinsic Potential (WIP), as a predictor for SOC across both wetlands

Breeding Waterfowl Populations in the Prairie Pothole Region of North Dakota

open access: yesThe Condor, 1974
The pothole areas within the glaciated, northern prairies and adjoining parklands of southcentral Canada and north-central United States are the principal breeding grounds for many species of North American ducks. Millions of pairs, including dabbling ducks (Anatinae) and diving ducks (Aythyinae and Oxyurinae), resort here for nesting each year.

HydroDiffusion: Diffusion‐Based Probabilistic Streamflow Forecasting With a State Space Backbone

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Recent advances have introduced diffusion models for probabilistic streamflow forecasting, demonstrating strong early flood‐warning skill. However, current implementations rely on Long Short‐Term Memory (LSTM) backbones and discrete‐time diffusion formulations.

Long‐term spatial heterogeneity in mallard distribution in the Prairie pothole region

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
The Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of north‐central United States and south‐central Canada supports greater than half of all breeding mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) annually counted in North America and is the focus of widespread conservation and research ...

Alternative stable states in inherently unstable systems

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Alternative stable states are nontransitory states within which communities can exist. However, even highly dynamic communities can be viewed within the framework of stable‐state theory if an appropriate “ecologically relevant” time scale is identified ...

Long‐term monitoring and remote sensing reveal waterbird colony collapses with rising lake levels and multiple stressors

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 6, September 2026.
Abstract Global climate change is expected to exacerbate existing environmental stressors and increasingly impact biodiversity. While likely widespread, changes in wildlife populations resulting from the interaction of climate change and other environmental stressors remain poorly understood.
