Playing Bricks with Neural Networks to Learn Sorption Processes

by Xavier Sanchez-Vila 19 January 202318 January 2023

Designated neural network modules are combined to mimic numerically-discretized diffusion-sorption equations, which allows learning “missing pieces” in system understanding and their uncertainties.

Using Big Data for Monitoring Network Design and Beyond

by Stefan Kollet 5 December 202229 November 2022

Large data sets can be generated using deep learning to improve the design of observation networks for monitoring subsurface flow and transport.

Understanding Enhanced Arsenic Pollution in Shallow Lakes

by Marc F. P. Bierkens 29 November 202225 January 2023

A new study explains why the arsenic that has accumulated in lake bottom sediments is more harmful to the lake ecosystems in shallow lakes.

Disentangling River Water Turbidity and its Flow

by Simone Bizzi 3 November 20223 November 2022

A new study shows why fine sediments in rivers are not simply proportional to the water flow across the United States.

High-Frequency Monitoring Reveals Riverine Nitrogen Removal

by Saima May Sidik 25 October 202226 October 2022

Years of daily readings provide an unprecedented view into how a submerged aquatic meadow kept nitrogen from reaching the St. Lawrence Estuary as well as insights on how climate change may alter it.

Deep Learning for Hydrologic Projections Under Climate Change

by Stefan Kollet 24 October 202219 October 2022

Extrapolation or not? Big data may help deep learning to go places where it has not been before by transferring learned hydrologic relationships.

Surprise Hydrological Shifts Imperil Water Resources

by Sarah Stanley 15 September 202213 October 2022

Mounting evidence suggests the need for improved water planning strategies and revamped hydrological models.

This photograph shows the rocky shore of a placid blue lake in front of green forested mountains. The shore is strewn with white and brown rocks and driftwood. A person dressed in black walks along the shore carrying a fishing rod, and there is a small boat visible on the left side of the image.

The Fate of a Lake After a Dramatic Mining Disaster

by Sarah Stanley 9 September 202212 October 2022

Researchers tracked long-term sediment dynamics in Canada’s Quesnel Lake following the 2014 failure of a dam that spilled record-breaking amounts of contaminated mining waste.

A boy in a striped t-shirt and shorts steers a long, narrow, and shallow boat with a long pole across a shallow body of water. The boat is laden with rocks. In the background is a marshland with a small group of people and a few tents, and beyond that are forests and mountains. One patch of forest on the right side of the mountains has been stripped bare by a past landslide.
