Harnessing the Power of Geophysical Imaging to Recharge California's Groundwater

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Motivated by the availability of 20,000 line‐km of airborne electromagnetic (AEM) data covering the Central Valley of California, we developed a workflow that uses resistivity profiles from electromagnetic (EM) data to assess the suitability of areas for groundwater recharge.

Exploring Water System Vulnerabilities in California's Central Valley Under the Late Renaissance Megadrought and Climate Change

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract California faces cycles of drought and flooding that are projected to intensify, but these extremes may impact water users across the state differently due to the region's natural hydroclimate variability and complex institutional framework governing water deliveries.

Harnessing Cattail Biomass for Sustainable Fibers and Engineered Bioproducts: A Review

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2025.
Integrating plant biology and materials chemistry is vital for enhancing cattail fiber characteristics and developing engineered bioproducts. This review explores cattails' environmental benefits, including carbon sequestration, alongside degumming methods for fiber extraction.

A Trophic and Non‐Trophic Seasonal Interaction Network Reveals Potential Management Units and Functionally Important Species

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the organisation of the wide variety of ecological interactions is crucial to advancing our understanding and management of real ecosystems. We aimed to compile a ‘complete’ network of tetrapod trophic and non‐trophic interactions for the entire North American boreal forest biome that could be analysed to gain insights into ...

Modeling Groundwater Levels in California's Central Valley by Hierarchical Gaussian Process and Neural Network Regression

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract Modeling groundwater levels continuously across California's Central Valley (CV) hydrological system is challenging due to low‐quality well data which is sparsely and noisily sampled across time and space. The lack of consistent well data makes it difficult to evaluate the impact of 2017 and 2019 wet years on CV groundwater following a severe ...

Advances in Limnogeology: The lake‐basin‐type model revisited 25 years after…anomalies, conundrums and upgrades

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 10, Issue 5, Page 748-792, November 2024.
This manuscript is a review of the lake basin type models applied in Limnogeology, their evolution since the last update (2000), integration with new data and finally the presentation of a new lake basin type model proposal as a result of this process. It is intended as a novel and useful contribution for the Limnogeology community.

Forbs from seasonal managed wetlands boost plankton production more than emergent graminoids by supplying novel labile detritus

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 11, Page 1686-1701, November 2024.
Abstract Opportunities to enhance ecosystem functions exist in human‐dominated working landscapes, but understanding of key drivers is often lacking in these novel environments. In Suisun Marsh, California, USA, impounded managed wetlands designed to promote waterfowl incidentally support higher plankton densities—a key resource for imperilled pelagic ...

Avian influenza overview June–September 2024

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Between 15 June and 20 September 2024, 75 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) and A(H7) virus detections were reported in domestic (16) and wild (59) birds across 11 countries in Europe. Although the overall number of detections in Europe continued to be low compared to previous epidemiological years, an increase in cases along the ...

Climate, food and humans predict communities of mammals in the United States

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Aim The assembly of species into communities and ecoregions is the result of interacting factors that affect plant and animal distribution and abundance at biogeographic scales. Here, we empirically derive ecoregions for mammals to test whether human disturbance has become more important than climate and habitat resources in structuring ...
