Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Harnessing the potential of the multi-indicator palaeoecological approach: an assessment of the nature and causes of ecological change in a eutrophic shallow lake [PDF]
, 2015 SUMMARY 1. Multi-indicator palaeoecological studies have become increasingly popular over the last decade as the need for a more complete understanding of lake ecological histories has increased.

Alternative Attractors of Shallow Lakes [PDF]
The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001 Ponds and shallow lakes can be very clear with abundant submerged plants, or very turbid due to a high concentration of phytoplankton and suspended sediment particles. These strongly contrasting ecosystem states have been found to represent alternative attractors with distinct stabilizing feedback mechanisms.

On the optimally controlled stochastic shallow lake
International Journal of Control, 2023 We consider the stochastic control problem of the shallow lake and continue the work of G. T. Kossioris, Loulakis, and Souganidis (2019) in three directions. First, we generalise the characterisation of the value function as the viscosity solution of a well-posed problem to include more general recycling rates.

Evaluating the influence of lake morphology, trophic status and diagenesis on geochemical profiles in lake sediments [PDF]
, 2010 Recent geochemical studies provide evidence that changes in vertical distributions of nutrients in lake sediments are driven by anthropogenic activities, based primarily on trends of increasing concentrations in upper sediment layers.

Experimental Study on the Curing Effect of Dredged Sediments with Three Types of Curing Agents
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016 Sediment solidification technology is widely used to dispose dredged sediment, three types of curing agents were used in this study to solidified the dredged sediment from shallows in Nantong with three types of curing agents: JY, ZL and FJ.

Temporal and spatial variations in phytoplankton productivity in surface waters of a warm-temperate, monomictic lake in New Zealand [PDF]
, 2010 Surface phytoplankton productivity measurements were carried out in morphologically complex Lake Rotoiti with the objective of defining variations between sites and seasons, and the dominant environmental drivers of these variations.
