We explain why DGVMs underestimate the carbon sink by considering how they represent disturbance p…

Understanding the key determinants of residential water conservation is crucial for designing effective water demand management policies in arid and semiarid regions. While extant literature has frequently identified such determinants using statistical significance and correlations, there is a growing emphasis on understanding these determinants using probabilistic sufficiency and deterministic necessity logics. Integrating these two logics to test an integrated model of the Theories of Plann…


The (FWE)2 nexus: Bridging food, food waste, water, energy, and ecosystems for circular systems and sustainable development

Authors: Nour El Houda Chaher, Abdallah Nassour, Michael Nelles

Journal: Trends in Food Science & Technology · DOI: 10.1016/j.tifs.2024.104788 · Citations: 22

Matched topics: water management

The imperative for sustainable resource management has become increasingly critical in the context of a rapidly expanding global population and heightened resource demands, compounded by the pressing challenges of climate change and environmental degradation. Traditional sector-specific approaches, which frequently isolate agriculture, energy, and water management, have proven inadequate in addressing the complex interdependencies inherent in resource ecosystems. In this regard, the Food, Foo…


Hydrological Processes, Snow Dynamics, and Remote Sensing

This theme encompasses 12 papers advancing understanding of hydrological processes through field observations, modeling, and remote sensing. Research covers snow distribution and dynamics in cold regions, forest-hydrology interactions, land use change impacts on river systems, rainfall-runoff modeling uncertainty, and satellite-based monitoring of terrestrial water resources.

, it is not known whether different bone compartments exhibit distinct microenvironmental properties and functional resilience. Here we use imaging, pharmacological approaches and mouse genetics to uncover specialized properties of bone marrow in adult and ageing skull. Specifically, we show that the skull bone marrow undergoes lifelong expansion involving vascular growth, which results in an increasing contribution to total haematopoietic output. Furthermore, skull is largely protected again…

Assessing climate change threats and urbanization impacts on surface runoff in Gdańsk (Poland): insights from remote sensing, machine learning and hydrological modeling

Authors: Khansa Gulshad, Michał Szydłowski, Andam Mustafa

Journal: Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment · DOI: 10.1007/s00477-024-02834-9 · Citations: 9

Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, land surface model, earth system model

Abstract This study investigates the impacts of Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) changes and climate change on surface runoff in Gdańsk, Poland, which is crucial for local LULC planning and urban flood risk management. The analysis employs two primary methodologies: remote sensing and hydrological modeling. Remote sensing was conducted using Google Earth Engine and Land Change Modeler in IDRISI Terrset software to analyze historical (1985–2022) and future (2050–2100) LULC. Hydrological modeling was…

Impact of drought hazards on flow regimes in anthropogenically impacted streams: an isotopic perspective on climate stress

Authors: Maria Magdalena Warter, Doerthe Tetzlaff, Christian Marx, Chris Soulsby

Journal: Natural hazards and earth system sciences · DOI: 10.5194/nhess-24-3907-2024 · Citations: 11

Matched topics: hydrology, runoff, streamflow, drought

Abstract. Flow regimes are increasingly impacted by more extreme natural hazards of droughts and floods as a result of climate change, compounded by anthropogenic influences in both urban and intensively managed rural catchments. However, the characteristics of sustainable flow regimes that are needed to maintain or restore hydrologic, biogeochemical and ecological functions under rapid global change remain unclear and contested. We conducted an intercomparison of two streams in the Berlin–Br…

Early work has revealed that 6PPDQ concentrations vary widely over time and space, raising questions about when and where to collect samples. Here, we employ condensed phase membrane introduction mass spectrometry, a high-throughput analysis approach to characterize spatiotemporal variability of 6PPDQ in urban st…
