ABSTRACT Prairie strips are narrow bands of native vegetation embedded within row‐crop fields. They are a promising nature‐based measure for reducing field‐scale flood peaks. We evaluated their hydrologic performance and placement sensitivity using an integrated surface‐subsurface model for two comparable sub‐watersheds in the US Midwest: a treatment ...

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Understanding the potential uses of soil moisture information in the United States
Abstract Soil moisture (SM) is an important component of the hydrological cycle that can impact runoff generation, evapotranspiration, crop growth, and wildfire behavior. Most studies, however, focus on technical aspects in a single sector, which makes it difficult to understand all of the current and potential benefits of SM information.
