Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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 ...

Uncertainty Analysis of Snow Depth Retrieval Products over China via the Triple Collocation Method and Ground-Based Measurements

Remote Sensing
Snow depth is a crucial variable when assessing the hydrological cycle and total water supply. Therefore, thorough and large-scale assessments of the widely used gridded snow depth products are highly important.

Snow water equivalent in the Alps as seen by gridded data sets, CMIP5 and CORDEX climate models [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2017
The estimate of the current and future conditions of snow resources in mountain areas would require reliable, kilometre-resolution, regional-observation-based gridded data sets and climate models capable of properly representing snow processes and snow–

Snow: a reliable indicator for global warming in the future?

Environmental Research Letters, 2012
The cryosphere consists of water in the solid form at the Earth's surface and includes, among others, snow, sea ice, glaciers and ice sheets. Since the 1990s the cryosphere and its components have often been considered as indicators of global warming because rising temperatures can enhance the melting of solid water (e.g. Barry et al 1993, Goodison and

Static Drainage H2/O2 PEM Fuel Cells Enabled by Water Transport Plates: Pore‐Scale Design and Transport Mechanisms

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The WTP is a key component of static drainage PEMFCs, enabling cathode water removal and gas sealing through capillary forces. This work investigates the mechanisms governing WTP drainage and sealing performance and develops predictive approaches for WTP design optimization.

Past changes in natural and managed snow reliability of French Alps ski resorts from 1961 to 2018 [PDF]

, 2021
Abstract. Snow reliability is a key climatic impact driver for the ski tourism industry, for which there is more literature regarding future projections than past observed impacts. This study provides an assessment of past changes in natural and managed snow cover reliability from 1961 to 2018 in the French Alps.
