What Controls Nitrous Oxide Emissions from Rivers?

by Nicolas Gruber 22 November 202128 March 2022

Statistical and numerical models show that denitrification efficiency is a key parameter controlling the production of N2O from rivers, providing a target for river restoration projects.

ICESat-2 Adds Estimates of Sea Level Trends to Accomplishments

by Kathleen A. Donohue 27 October 202119 October 2022

The high spatial resolution and high orbit of ICESat-2 make it suited for measuring sea level close to the coast and in the polar regions, filling a gap in our sea level observational system.
