Drought, a significant environmental challenge, presents a substantial risk to worldwide agriculture and the security of food supplies. In response, plants can perceive stimuli from their environment and activate defense pathways via various modulating networks to cope with stress. Drought tolerance, a multifaceted attribute, can be dissected into distinct contributing mechanisms and factors. Osmotic stress, dehydration stress, dysfunction of plasma and endosome membranes, loss of cellular tu…

Abstract In 2022, Europe faced an extensive summer drought with severe socioeconomic consequences. Quantifying the influence of human-induced climate change on such an extreme event can help prepare for future droughts.

. However, the mechanisms behind these thresholds remain poorly defined at the ecosystem scale. Here, by analysing observations of critical soil moisture thresholds globally, we show the prominent role of soil texture in modulating the onset of ecosystem water limitation through the soil hydraulic conductivity curve, whose steepness increases with sand fraction. This clarifies how ecosystem sensitivity to VPD versus soil moisture is shaped by soil texture, with ecosystems in sandy soils being…

Abstract. Retrogressive thaw slumps (RTSs) are spectacular landforms that occur due to the thawing of ice-rich permafrost or melting of massive ground ice, often in hillslope terrain. RTSs occur in the Arctic, the subarctic, and high mountain (Qinghai–Tibet Plateau) permafrost regions and are observed to expand in size and number due to climate warming. As the observation of RTSs is receiving more and more attention due to their important role in permafrost thaw; impacts on topography; mobili…

Abstract. To ensure the safe and efficient application of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), it is crucial to investigate its impacts on the carbonate system. While modeling studies reported a sequestration potential of 3–30 Gt carbon dioxide (CO2) per year (Oschlies et al., 2023), there has been a lack of empirical data to support the applicability of this technology in natural environments. Recent studies have described the effect of runaway carbonate precipitation in the context of OAE, s…

Authors: Ihsanullah R. Khan, Samy Ismail Elmahdy, Rabee Rustum, Qasim Khan, Mohamed M. Mohamed
Journal: Scientific Reports · DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-74736-3 · Citations: 13
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow, flood, land surface model
Floods accompanied by thunderstorms in developed cities are hazardous, causing damage to infrastructure. To secure infrastructure, it is important to employ an integrated approach, combining remote sensing, GIS and precipitation data. The model was developed based on the estimation of event-based runoff and investigated the relationship between runoff and impervious surfaces. The novel approach of combining Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-GeoRAS) along with satellit…

Shifted Flood and Ecology Regimes Due To Channel Bar Greening and Increased Flow Resistance in a Large Dammed River

Abstract Damming profoundly affects downstream flow‐sediment regimes, altering channel bar dynamics and thereby affecting floods and riverine biodiversity. Here, we investigate the response of bars to upstream damming by examining patterns, mechanisms, and impacts in the Middle Yangtze River (∼1,000 km). Over a decade of post‐damming observational data reveal substantial increases in bar revegetation and Leaf Area Index. Shorter flood duration and stable bar size collectively drive bar greeni…
Comparative assessment of pollution control measures for urban water bodies in urban small catchment by SWMM
Authors: Jie Liu, Xiang Zhang, Haijiao Gui
Journal: Frontiers in Environmental Science · DOI: 10.3389/fenvs.2024.1458858 · Citations: 6
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow, water management
Under the current increasingly serious water pollution situation in urban, the comprehensive treatment and protecting measures in urban small catchment are the necessary step to the water pollution treatment, not only focus on the water bodies themself. In this paper, the Luojiagang river channel and its catchment in Wuhan, which has been heavily impacted by water pollution, are taken as an example for the comparative assessment of pollution control measures in order to explore the effective …

Abstract. Soil moisture plays a key role in soil nutrient and carbon cycling; plant productivity; and energy, water, and greenhouse gas exchanges between the land and the atmosphere. The knowledge on drivers of spatiotemporal soil moisture dynamics in subarctic landscapes is limited. In this study, we used the Spatial Forest Hydrology (SpaFHy) model, in situ soil moisture data, and Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-based soil moisture estimates to explore spatiotemporal controls of so…
Projection of land use and land cover changes based on land change modeler and integrating both land use land cover and climate change on the hydrological response of Big Creek Lake Watershed, South Alabama
Authors: Eshita Eva, Luke Marzen, Jasmeet Lamba, S M Ahsanullah, Chandana Mitra
Journal: Journal of Environmental Management · DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.122923 · Citations: 10
Matched topics: hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow, land surface model
Changing land use/land cover (LULC) and climate substantially affect the hydrological components of a watershed. This study explored the future impact of the hydrological responses due to the changing LULC and climate on the Big Creek Lake watershed in Alabama, USA, from 2021 to 2050 using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). Five climate model datasets were used under the moderate scenario (Representative Concentrative Pathways 4.5) and the extreme scenario (Representative Concentrativ…

Contamination source, health and ecological risk assessment of hazardous elements in the sediment of the Shahid Rajaee reservoir
Authors: Fatemeh Kachoueiyan, Pourya Alipour Atmianlu, Armin Rajabi, Fikret Ustaoğlu, Abdolreza Karbassi
Journal: Frontiers in Environmental Science · DOI: 10.3389/fenvs.2024.1493547 · Citations: 23
Matched topics: reservoir
Sediment pollution from potentially hazardous elements (PHE) generated by human activity has grown into a worldwide problem. In this regard, for the first time, surface sediment samples were obtained from six points along the Shahid Rajaee Reservoir for this investigation. Elements concentrations (Cu, Cr, Co, Mn, Fe, Pb, Ni, and Zn) were assessed using ICP-MS. Based on the individual indices (geoaccumulation index, contamination factor), all elements at all sample sites were found to be low i…
