Excessive intake of sugars and fats contributes to obesity and renal dysfunction. Natural bioactive compounds, such as those found in bergamot (Citrus bergamia), have been studied for their protective potential. In an experimental rat model, bergamot supplementation reduced weight gain, improved kidney function, and decreased oxidative stress markers ...

Abstract Total dissolved solids derived from salt dome–sourced brine in the underlying alluvial aquifer substantially increase with distance in the reach of the Dolores River that passes through Paradox Valley in southwestern Colorado. The area has been the site of salinity control operations since the 1990s to reduce salt loading to the downstream ...

Abstract The characterization and management of karst systems is a challenging task due to their inherently heterogeneous nature and vulnerability with respect to contamination. Highly conductive features of the vadose zone (e.g., dissolution shafts and faults) induce flow channeling and preferential flow. This complicates any efforts to simulate rapid

Abstract Estimating subsurface soil moisture remains challenging due to limited in situ observations and the complexity of soil water dynamics. Although surface soil moisture can be retrieved from satellites with high accuracy, deeper layers are not directly observable. Traditional physics‐based models that predict subsurface soil moisture require site‐
