The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Remotely sensed vegetation condition is most sensitive to groundwater variability during monsoon seasons, when precipitation is abundant and plants are most productive. Compared to the surrounding uplands, riparian (groundwater dependent) vegetation greenness is more sensitive to vapour pressure deficit, but similarly sensitive to precipitation ...

Vegetation responses to climatic and geologic controls on water availability in southeastern Arizona
Vegetation distribution, composition and health in arid regions are largely dependent on water availability controlled by climate, local topography and geology. Despite a general understanding of climatic and geologic drivers in plant communities, trends

Gain-loss study of lower San Pedro Creek and the San Antonio River, San Antonio, Texas, May-October 1999 [PDF]
Abstract : Five streamflow gain-loss measurement surveys were made along lower San Pedro Creek and the San Antonio River from Mitchell Street to South Loop 410 east of Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, during May October 1999. All of the measurements were made during dry periods, when stormwater runoff was not occurring and effects of ...

Monitoring Reservoir Storage Using SWOT Satellite Observations and a Reservoir Operation Model
Abstract Reservoirs play a critical role in water management, yet comprehensive and real‐time observations of reservoir storage remain limited, especially outside the U.S. Observations of two reservoir‐related attributes, Water Surface Elevation (WSE) and Surface Area (SA), which can be used to calculate reservoir storage change, are often ...
