Impact of the Addition of a Shading Algorithm in a Physically Based Conceptual River Hydrological–Temperature Model

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic impacts on the thermal regime of rivers include climate change and deforestation. For the latter, developing modelling tools that can account for the impact of varying vegetation cover on river temperatures is essential. This study describes a new addition to the CEQUEAU hydrological and water temperature model: a shading ...

Flow Pattern and Resistance Coefficient of Overland Flow on Riparian Zone with Different Construction Models

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2020
In order to systematically study the influence of the riparian construction models on the hydrodynamic characteristics of overland flow, the field scouring simulation experiments were carried out in the riparian zone of north Zhejiang Province.

A Functional Flows Framework for the Terminal Great Salt Lake Basin: Can We Have Our Lake and Drink It Too?

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terminal basins provide unique aquatic environments that are often highly sensitive to streamflow contributions, making them a focal point for environmental water management. However, the water needs for terminal lake, wetland, and river ecosystems, and how they relate, remain a fundamental knowledge gap that constrains our ability to ...

Improved Cerrado Wetland Mapping Through Seasonal Moisture Metrics, Terrain Information and Semantic Segmentation

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

A Mixed‐Methods Study of a Short‐Term Professional Development as an Entry Point to School‐Based Participatory Science

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT School‐based participatory science (SBPS) connects school science with authentic research practices; however, adoption in formal schooling depends on how teachers interpret SBPS and appraise its feasibility under institutional constraints.

LANDOWNER DECISION MAKING ABOUT RIPARIAN BUFFERS [PDF]

open access: yes
A two-stage model is used to examine a landowner's decision to use riparian buffers. First, the farmer chooses whether to continue farming or to sell the land for development.

The Hidden Harvest: Harnessing Colorado's Geodiversity and Environmental Heterogeneity for Sustainable Agritourism

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Effects of Riparian Zone Width and Soil Depth: Soil Environmental Factors Drive Changes in Soil Enzyme Activity

open access: yesLand
Functioning as a critical ecotone between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, riparian zones exhibit soil enzyme activities that serve as key biomarkers of their nutrient cycling processes. However, despite considerable focus on riparian soil properties,
