Demodulation of time series highlights impacts of hydrologic drivers on the Everglades ecosystem

Andrea Rinaldo

In the context of climatic uncertainty and potential climatic change, incorporating climatic variability and change in eco-hydrological analysis, as well as understanding the impact of such variability on ecosystems, is of crucial importance. The latter is ...

A hydrologic tracer study in a small, natural wetland in the humid tropics of Costa Rica

Growing populations and food demand in the tropics are leading to increased environmental pressures on wetland ecosystems, including a greater reliance on natural wetlands for water quality improvement. Effective assessment of wetland treatment potential r ...

Signs of critical transition in the Everglades wetlands in response to climate and anthropogenic changes

Andrea Rinaldo

The increasing pressure of climatic change and anthropogenic activities is predicted to have major effects on ecosystems around the world. With their fragility and sensitivity to hydrologic shifts and land-use changes, wetlands are among the most vulnerabl ...

Present state of global wetland extent and wetland methane modelling: methodology of a model inter-comparison project (WETCHIMP)

Jed Oliver Kaplan

The Wetland and Wetland CH4 Intercomparison of Models Project (WETCHIMP) was created to evaluate our present ability to simulate large-scale wetland characteristics and corresponding methane (CH4) emissions. A multi-model comparison is essential to evaluat ...

Early Anthropogenic Transformation of the Danube-Black Sea System

Jed Oliver Kaplan

Over the last century humans have altered the export of fluvial materials leading to significant changes in morphology, chemistry, and biology of the coastal ocean. Here we present sedimentary, paleoenvironmental and paleogenetic evidence to show that the ...

Nature Publishing Group2012

Observational evidence is presented on the geometry of meandering tidal channels evolved within coastal wetlands characterized by different tidal, hydrodynamic, topographic, vegetational and ecological features. New insight is provided on the geometrical p ...

Methane flux from northern wetlands and tundra - An ecosystem source modelling approach

Jed Oliver Kaplan

The magnitude and geographical distribution of natural sources and sinks of atmospheric CH4 in the biosphere are still poorly known. Estimates of the net contribution from northern wetlands have been lowered during recent years. According to current consen ...
