Enhancing Reliable Irrigation–Water Supply in Poverty‐Ridden and Drought‐Prone Areas: Pre‐2017 Baseline Evidence From the Tawona Irrigation Scheme, Zimbabwe

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates farmers' willingness to pay for a reliable irrigation water supply in Zimbabwe's Tawona irrigation scheme, where intermittent water supply caused by funding shortages threatens irrigation sustainability. Using contingent valuation and logit regression analysis, data were collected from 313 farmers during the 2016/2017 ...

Transforming Agricultural Water Management for Healthy People and Planet: Thinking Beyond Water

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops the concept of Thinking Beyond Water, a transdisciplinary paradigm that reframes agricultural water management (AWM) as a systems catalyst for planetary health, equity, justice and resilience. Moving beyond conventional irrigation‐centric models, we reimagine AWM through integrative frameworks such as the planetary ...

Construction and Application of a Novel C‐Vine Copula‐Based Multi‐Variate Ecological Drought Index

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive ecological drought index capturing vegetation growth conditions and meteorological–hydrological variability is essential for assessing ecological drought and optimizing water resource management. This study selected soil moisture (SM), actual evapotranspiration (ET), land surface temperature (LST) and leaf area index (LAI) to ...

Metal Accumulation, Liver Histopathology, and Human Health Risk Assessment Across Different Trophic Guilds in a Mining‐Affected Neotropical River

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal pollution in aquatic environments represents a recurring global concern; however, traditional paradigms often assume linear bioaccumulation patterns that may fail under catastrophic contamination scenarios. This study evaluated metal concentrations in water, sediment, and tissues of 10 fish species from different trophic guilds in the ...

Body Size and Habitat Association as Determinants for Water Balance, Temperature Relations, and Behavioral Performance in Leptodactylid Frogs

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between species' habitat preferences (e.g., aquatic, terrestrial, arboreal) and traits related to body temperature regulation and water balance has been relatively well studied in anurans. However, whether such associations hold for species occupying the same general habitat while differing in other relevant functional ...

Sensitivity of Consecutive‐Dry‐Day Trends to Trace Loss in Matched Precipitation Archives

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Loss of trace precipitation information can turn valid dry days into missing observations that interrupt consecutive dry day (CDD) spells. Simulating this loss reduced the median cross‐archive CDD trend discrepancy by 88% across 205 matched Spanish station pairs; a separate global experiment converting documented traces to missing observations changed ...
