Watershed-based representation discretized into topographic subgrid units better captured small-scale land cover, precipitation, temperature, and snow variability across multiple spatial scales.
Lab experiments show that just a few saltwater pulses can rapidly alter soil pore structure and reduce oxygen flow, stressing tree roots in coastal forest soils.
Numerical simulations reveal how well-controlled wall temperature and moisture can generate a stratocumulus-like cloud top in a laboratory cloud chamber.
Newly designed sensor network comprehensively monitors a range of coastal landscapes to better understand nutrient and elemental dynamics that drive ecosystem function.
Dynamic organic matter traits tied to reactions can surpass static descriptors in explaining decomposition rates and responses to environmental change.
Using an AI approach to combine outputs from microbial models and apply them as inputs to reactive-transport models reduces computational time by several orders of magnitude.
Using multiple specialized techniques, IDREAM researchers gained a better understanding of how trace impurities within gibbsite affect the hydrogen yield.
Following wildfire, the transformation and mobility of phosphorus-containing compounds depend on the type of vegetation burned and the severity of the fire.
Tracking water age using a new precipitation tagging method within a hydrologic model generates key information to support hydropower energy and other water-dependent systems.
Higher temperatures and land-use pressures were associated with weaker chemical separation between river water and sediment dissolved organic matter across 93 sites.
