Plant Root Exudates Mediate Soil Nutrient Transport

by D. Scott Mackay 9 December 20218 April 2022

Plant roots mediate solute transport through the soil immediately surrounding them by introducing polymers and other binding compounds that disrupt water transport pathways between soil pore spaces.

Pro-Poor Flood Risk Management Can Reduce Urban Inequality

by Jim Hall 7 December 20213 December 2021

Rich people’s aversion to flood risk results in poor people living in the most vulnerable locations poverty. Pro-poor flood risk management policies could have a significant impact on inequality.

Water Quality Policy Must Consider Stored Watershed Phosphorous

by D. Scott Mackay 6 December 20213 December 2021

Phosphorous stored in watersheds and affects water quality for decades. A new model predicts phosphorus accumulation and depletion, and the consequences for water quality conservation measures.

Export of Different Carbon Types from a Boreal Catchment

by Ilja van Meerveld 2 December 202123 February 2022

Carbon export in boreal catchments depends on the landscape setting and differs for snowmelt and rainfall events.

New Standards Spur Water Utilities to Improve Compliance

by Jim Hall 1 December 202116 February 2022

Although American water utility companies take time to modify procedures and technologies in response to new quality requirements, ultimately it reduces the rate at which they violate standards.

Cyanobacteria Blooms Exceed WHO Thresholds in Midwest Lakes

by Rebecca Dzombak 16 November 20216 June 2022

A study of 369 lakes across the Midwest finds that many of them, especially those close to agriculture, have high concentrations of harmful algal bloom-causing cyanobacteria.

Improving Weather Simulations Through Increased Generality

by Morgan Rehnberg 3 August 202128 September 2021

By adding support for spatially variable velocity fields and anisotropy, the CoSMoS simulation package can more accurately reproduce physical phenomena.

Analysis Reveals Patterns of Streamflow Generation Across USA

by K. McGuire 23 July 20219 May 2022

A new study transforms a classic conceptual framework into a quantitative classification of streamflow generation patterns.

Combining Deep Learning Methods with Process-based Models

by Marc F. P. Bierkens 2 July 202128 September 2021

Using turbulent heat fluxes as an example, a new study shows that exchange of information between process-based models and deep learning methods may lead to improved predictions.
