Capitalizing flood risk protective measures in residential real estate

Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study utilizes 1.4 million residential transactions incorporating flood hazard estimates derived from a nationwide elevation model and hydrological data to examine the role of flood protections to mitigate the negative impact of flood risk on home prices.

Detection of Hg²⁺ in Water by Modified Gold Nanoparticles: A Rapid Method and Its Mechanistic Basis

Chemosensors
A new sensor was developed to detect Hg2+ ions; different volume ratios of chloroauric acid and sodium citrate were used, which were 1.0, 0.8 and 0.5. Three kinds of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with sizes of 18 nm, 25 nm and 32 nm were synthesized in this

Flight Initiation Distance Varies With Proximity to Humans and Feeding Opportunity in Rock Hyraxes, Procavia capensis

Ethology, EarlyView.
Rock hyraxes (Procavia capensis) showed longer flight initiation distances in colonies further from human dwellings, and shorter distances when food was present. There was no evidence that the food effect differed among colonies. ABSTRACT Urban wildlife must persist in close proximity to humans.

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

Evaluating the hydrologic and water quality performance of novel infiltrating wet retention ponds

Blue-Green Systems, 2020
Wet retention ponds temporarily store and slowly release stormwater to mitigate peak flow rates and remove particulate-bound pollutants. However, with sandy underlying soils, wet retention ponds may provide additional benefits through infiltration ...

Enhancing Recharge Beneath Low‐Permeability Landscapes with Small‐Diameter Drywells: Token Creek, WI

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Shallow, small‐diameter drywells provide enhanced recharge in rural landscapes, bypassing the low infiltration rates caused by low permeability surficial soils and high ET rates. One year of monitoring data show several recharge events and overall high water quality.
