Mesoscale Eddies Observed at the Denmark Strait Sill
(
- Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
, 2019)
The Denmark Strait overflow is the major export route of dense water from the Arctic Mediterranean into the North Atlantic. At the Strait's shallow sill, the overflow is a bottom-intensified cold and dense plume, bound to ...
Spatial upscaling of CO2 emissions from exposed river sediments of the Elbe River during an extreme drought
(
- Ecohydrology
, 2020)
Droughts lead to falling river water levels and consequently expose river sediments. It is well known that from these exposed aquatic sediments, CO2 emits to the atmosphere, but upscaling of CO2 measurements from discrete ...
Water transport and tracer mixing in volcanic ash soils at a tropical hillslope: A wet layered sloping sponge
(
- Hydrological Processes
, 2020)
Andosol soils formed in volcanic ash provide key hydrological services in montane environments. To unravel the subsurface water transport and tracer mixing in these soils we conducted a detailed characterization of soil ...
Potential Added Value of Incorporating Human Water Use on the Simulation of Evapotranspiration and Precipitation in a Continental-Scale Bedrock-to-Atmosphere Modeling System: A Validation Study Considering Observational Uncertainty
(
- Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
, 2019)
Human activities, such as human water use, have been shown to directly influence terrestrial water fluxes and states. Simulations of soil moisture, river discharge, evapotranspiration, and groundwater storage are significantly ...
Diagnostic Evaluation of Large-Domain Hydrologic Models Calibrated Across the Contiguous United States
(
- Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres
, 2019)
This study presents diagnostic evaluation of two large-domain hydrologic models: the mesoscale Hydrologic Model (mHM) and the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) over the contiguous United States (CONUS). These models ...
Framework for High-End Estimates of Sea Level Rise for Stakeholder Applications
(
- Earth's Future
, 2019)
An approach to analyze high-end sea level rise is presented to provide a conceptual framework for high-end estimates as a function of time scale, thereby linking robust sea level science with stakeholder needs. Instead of ...
Inversions of Estuarine Circulation Are Frequent in a Weakly Tidal Estuary With Variable Wind Forcing and Seaward Salinity Fluctuations
(
- Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
, 2020)
The hydrodynamics in estuaries is mainly governed by the competition between a horizontal density gradient, friction, and wind stress. The sensitivity of the estuarine exchange flow to the wind stress increases in the ...
Prioritizing reaches for restoration in a regulated Alpine river: Locally driven versus hydro‐morphologically based actions
(
- River Research and Applications
, 2020-10-19)
We discuss the prioritization of river reaches to be selected for restoration measures under the constraints of financial resource limitation. We propose and apply a simple approach based on the quantification of major ...
Quantification of Evaporation and Drainage Processes in Unsaturated Porous Media Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(
- Water Resources Research
, 2020-03-01)
The water loss in packed beds was studied spatially and time‐resolved via magnetic resonance imaging on the pore scale. The packed beds were measured under water‐saturated and unsaturated conditions, while the magnetic ...
Convection On the Edge
(
- Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
, 2019)
Deep convection over tropical oceans often appears intensified at the edge of convectively active regions, both in idealized studies and in observations. This edge intensification of convection is studied in detail here, ...
