Effects of Unsaturated Flow on Salt Distributions in Tidally Influenced Coastal Unconfined Aquifers
David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo
Unsaturated flow influences both the seawater extent under steady-state conditions and the propagation of tides in coastal aquifers. However, its effects on salt distributions in tidally influenced coastal aquifers are little investigated. The present stud ...
2023Surface water and groundwater interactions in salt marshes and their impact on plant ecology and coastal biogeochemistry
Salt marshes are highly productive intertidal wetlands providing important ecological services for maintaining coastal biodiversity, buffering against oceanic storms, and acting as efficient carbon sinks. However, about half of these wetlands have been los ...
2022Modeling Snow Saltation: The Effect of Grain Size and Interparticle Cohesion
Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Daniela Brito Melo, Francesco Comola, Armin Sigmund
The surface of the Earth is snow-covered at least seasonally over large areas. This snow surface is highly dynamic, particularly under the influence of strong winds. The motion of snow particles driven by the wind not only changes the snow cover but has im ...
AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION2022Persistence of bioconvection-induced mixed layers in a stratified lake
Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner
In situ observations of biophysical interactions in natural waters typically focus on physical mechanisms influencing biological activity. Yet, biological activity can also drive physical processes in aquatic environments. A community of photoautotrophic, ...
2021Temperature of artificial freshwater recharge significantly affects salinity distributions in coastal confined aquifers
Artificial freshwater recharge is commonly used to mitigate seawater intrusion and restore salinized aquifers in coastal zones. While the temperature of recharged freshwater often differs from that of aquifers, effects of temperature differences on water f ...
2021Effects of large macropores on soil evaporation in salt marshes
The occurrence of macropores in salt marsh sediments is a natural and ubiquitous phenomenon. Although they are widely assumed to affect pore-water flow in salt marshes significantly, the mechanisms involved and their extent are not well understood. We cond ...
2020Estuarine tidal response to sea level rise: The significance of entrance restriction
Giovanni De Cesare, Steve Hottinger
Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on estuarine responses, it is necessary to examine the altered tidal dynamics, i ...
2020Desalinization and Salinization: A Review of Major Challenges for Coastal Reservoirs
Coastal reservoirs are a possible solution to water supply and management issues in coastal zones. However, salinization can degrade the utility of such reservoirs. Two related major challenges affecting the operation of a coastal reservoir are desalinizat ...
2019Life-history trade-offs and limitations associated with phenotypic adaptation under future ocean warming and elevated salinity
Emma Mary Gibbin, Félix Christen
Little is known about the life-history trade-offs and limitations, and the physiological mechanisms that are associated with phenotypic adaptation to future ocean conditions. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated the within-and trans-generation li ...
ROYAL SOC2019Nitrification increases nitrogen export from a tropical river network
Scaling aquatic ecosystem processes like nutrient removal is critical for assessing the importance of streams and rivers to watershed nutrient export. We used pulse NH4+ enrichment experiments and measured net NH4+ uptake in 7 streams throughout a mountain ...
