Fire suppression is the primary management response to wildfires in many areas globally. By removing less-extreme wildfires, this approach ensures that remaining wildfires burn under more extreme conditions. Here, we term this the “suppression bias” and use a simulation model to highlight how this bias fundamentally impacts wildfire activity, independent of fuel accumulation and climate change. We illustrate how attempting to suppress all wildfires necessarily means that fires will burn with …

Dryland agriculture requires the efficient utilization of water resources and the implementation of water-conserving technologies. Mulching is a water conservation practice used in arid land areas to preserve soil moisture, control temperature, and minimize soil evaporation rates. Organic mulching minimizes soil deterioration, enhances organic matter, and boosts the soil’s ability to retain water. Mulching can help keep moisture in the root zone, allowing plants to receive water for extended …

sources to net sinks takes about 3-5 years for afforestation and reforestation sites, and 6-13 years for clear-cutting and post-fire sites. Overall, forest, grassland and wetland restoration decrease the global warming potentials by 327.7%, 157.7% and 62.0% compared with their paired control ecosystems, respectively. Our findings suggest that afforestation, reforestation, rewetting drained wetlands, and restoring degraded grasslands through grazing exclusion, reducing grazing intensity, or co…
Accounting for albedo change to identify climate-positive tree cover restoration
Authors: Natalia Hasler, C. A. Williams, Vanessa Carrasco Denney, Peter W. Ellis, Surendra Shrestha, Drew E. Terasaki Hart et al.

Restoring tree cover changes albedo, which is the fraction of sunlight reflected from the Earth’s surface. In most locations, these changes in albedo offset or even negate the carbon removal benefits with the latter leading to global warming. Previous efforts to quantify the global climate mitigation benefit of restoring tree cover have not accounted robustly for albedo given a lack of spatially explicit data. Here we produce maps that show that carbon-only estimates may be up to 81% too high…

The Samail Ophiolite in Oman, the largest exposed body of ultramafic rocks at the Earth’s surface, produces a continuous flux of hydrogen through low-temperature water/rock reactions. In turn, the scale of the subsurface microbial biosphere is sufficient to consume much of this hydrogen, except where H 2 is delivered to surface seeps via faults. By integrating data from recent investigations into the alteration history of the peridotites, groundwater dynamics, and the serpentinite-hosted micr…

Matched topics: streamflow, climate change
The Hadley circulation (HC) is a global-scale atmospheric feature with air descending in the subtropics and ascending in the tropics, which plays a fundamental role in Earth’s climate because it transports energy polewards and moisture equatorwards. Theoretically, as a consequence of anthropogenic climate change, the HC is expected to expand polewards, while indications on the HC strength are equivocal, as weakening and strengthening are expected in response to different mechanisms. In fact, …

Abstract Persistent overuse of water supplies from the Colorado River during recent decades has substantially depleted large storage reservoirs and triggered mandatory cutbacks in water use. The river holds critical importance to more than 40 million people and more than two million hectares of cropland. Therefore, a full accounting of where the river’s water goes en route to its delta is necessary. Detailed knowledge of how and where the river’s water is used can aid design of strategies and…

Climate change jeopardizes human health, global biodiversity, and sustainability of the biosphere. To make reliable predictions about climate change, scientists use Earth system models (ESMs) that integrate physical, chemical, and biological processes occurring on land, the oceans, and the atmosphere. Although critical for catalyzing coupled biogeochemical processes, microorganisms have traditionally been left out of ESMs. Here, we generate a “top 10” list of priorities, opportunities, and ch…

Abstract. In drought-prone Australia, multi-year droughts have detrimental impacts on both the natural environment and human societies. For responsible water management, we need a thorough understanding of the full range of variability in multi-year droughts and how this might change in a warming world. But research into the long-term frequency, persistence, and severity of Australian droughts is limited. This is partly due to the length of the observational record, which is short relative to…

Abstract Water is one of the most imperative needs and used for innumerable purpose. The needs of groundwater exploration have being increased due to the radical climatic changes, for continually increased population growth and a change of human lifestyle. GIS and AHP of multicriteria decision making are the most effective, applicable and logical approaches to delineate the groundwater potential zones in upper parts of Chemoga watershed. GIS and AHP are a 7 computer-based systems used to hand…

Matched topics: streamflow, drought
Abstract. There is a wide variety of drought indices, yet a consensus on suitable indices and temporal scales for monitoring streamflow drought remains elusive across diverse hydrological settings. Considering the growing interest in spatially distributed indices for ungauged areas, this study addresses the following questions: (i) What temporal scales of precipitation-based indices are most suitable to assess streamflow drought in catchments with different hydrological regimes? (ii) Do soil …

Long‐ and Short‐Term Memory Characteristics Controlled by Electrical and Optical Stimulations in InZnO‐Based Synaptic Device for Reservoir Computing
Authors: Hyogeun Park, Dongyeol Ju, Chandreswar Mahata, A. V. Emelyanov, Minsuk Koo, Sungjun Kim
Journal: Advanced Electronic Materials · DOI: 10.1002/aelm.202300911 · Citations: 34
Matched topics: reservoir
Abstract In this study, the resistive switching phenomenon and synaptic mimicry characteristics of an indium tin oxide (ITO)/indium zinc oxide (IZO)/Al 2 O 3 /TaN device are characterized. The insertion of a thin Al 2 O 3 layer via atomic layer deposition improves the resistive switching characteristics such as cycle‐to‐cycle and device‐to‐device uniformity and reduces the power consumption of the proposed device with respect to a single‐layer ITO/IZO/TaN device. The proposed device exhibits …
Multi-sensor satellite imagery reveals spatiotemporal changes in peatland water table after restoration
Authors: Aleksi Isoaho, Lauri Ikkala, Lassi Päkkilä, Hannu Marttila, Santtu Kareksela, Aleksi Räsänen
Journal: Remote Sensing of Environment · DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2024.114144 · Citations: 29
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model
Remote sensing (RS) has been suggested as a tool to spatially monitor the status of peatland ecosystem functioning after restoration. However, there have been only a few studies in which post-restoration hydrological changes have been quantified with RS-based modelling. To address this gap, we developed an approach to assess post-restoration spatiotemporal changes in the peatland water table (WT) with optical (Sentinel-2 and Landsat 7–9) and radar (Sentinel-1) imagery. We tested the approach …
Regional climate models and bias correction methods for rainfall-runoff modeling in Katar watershed, Ethiopia
Authors: Babur Tesfaye Yersaw, Mulusew Bezabih Chane
Journal: ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS RESEARCH · DOI: 10.1186/s40068-024-00340-z · Citations: 18
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow
Abstract Systematic errors in regional climate models (RCMs) hinder their implementation and lead to uncertainties in regional hydrological climate change studies. As a result, checking the accuracy of climate model simulations and applying bias correction are preliminary methods for achieving consistent findings. Therefore, identifying suitable RCM models for bias correction is important for providing reliable inputs for evaluating climate change impacts. The impacts of bias correction metho…
