Water Quality Affects Water Source Allocation and Competition Between Sectors Globally
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Human activities, including domestic water use, agriculture, and energy generation, cause increasing challenges in meeting water demands, not only due to water shortages, but also poor water quality. Nevertheless, there remains limited understanding of how water quality influences the allocation of water per source across different sectors at ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Knowledge of the groundwater recharge rate determines whether aquifer use is sustainable. However, accurately measuring recharge globally presents significant challenges due to the complexity of subsurface processes and the lack of direct observational methods.

Hydro‐Insurgency: Weaponization of Water Resources and Infrastructure in Northeast Syria
World Water Policy, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 924-938, November 2025.ABSTRACT This article examines the strategic weaponization of water resources by Turkey‐backed armed groups in Northeast Syria (NES) within the broader context of the Syrian civil war. As the conflict evolved, water infrastructure—dams, rivers, and irrigation systems—became central to warfare, governance, and foreign agendas. The article introduces the

Quantifying Past and Future Terrestrial Water Storage Scarcity Across China Through Midcentury
Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Terrestrial water storage (TWS) in China, with the world's largest irrigated expanse and extensive mid‐low latitude glaciers, is essential for effective water resource management and socioeconomic risk adaptation. However, the responses of TWS to human intervention and climate change, both during historical periods and under future scenarios ...

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 9, July 2025.We have compiled research published since 1980 on annual precipitation trends in the Mediterranean basin. A total of 337 papers were analysed, with the aim of providing a comprehensive overview of the available research, rather than evaluating the quality of the data, methods, or interpretations.

Modelling Species Distribution at the Boundaries of the Earth's Climate
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 7, July 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Correlative species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to project species' responses to global changes. The climatic niche of a species is calibrated under current climate conditions and then projected in space and/or time, making model extrapolation an important concern. This issue is particularly relevant when considering species

A Simple Approach to Represent Irrigation Water Withdrawals in Earth System Models
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract The increasing demand for water, driven by population growth and agricultural expansion, underscores the need for accurate representation of irrigation in Earth System Models (ESMs). While a few current‐generation ESMs incorporate irrigation, their representation of water withdrawals remains overly simplistic.

To vegetable: Seasons that require us
Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, March/April 2025.Abstract Domestication of cereals tracks with the natural life cycle of plants in the Poaceae family, but vegetables represent a different modality and often possess a truncated life cycle. The evolution of vegetable biodiversity required curatorial work each growing season that differed in important ways from curation of grains or perennial crops ...

Linking the Flow Regime of Papyrus‐Dominated Wetlands to Biologically Relevant Hydrologic Attributes
Ecohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 2, March 2025.ABSTRACT The dominant plant species in many African wetlands is Cyperus papyrus. Its adaptation to saturated and low‐oxygen conditions and its dense structure and height provide breeding and feeding grounds for unique flora and fauna. As a keystone species adapted to local hydrology, the flooding regime of papyrus offers the full range of hydrologic ...

Ancient and historical cooking pots and food: an eternal communion. A topical review
Archaeometry, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 219-234, February 2025.Abstract This contribution provides a topical view at and review of traditional clay‐based utilitarian cooking pots that were used for millennia to prepare, serve, display, and distribute foodstuff. Key mechanical and thermal properties of ceramic cooking vessels will be discussed and strategies of property optimization outlined.
