Contrasting Biophysical Controls on Carbon Dioxide and Methane Outgassing From Streams
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2021-12-30)Small headwater streams are recognized for intense outgassing to the atmosphere of climate‐relevant carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Though these headwaters are markedly oversaturated for both CO2 and CH4, the origins ... -
High spatial‐resolution monitoring to investigate nitrate export and its drivers in a mesoscale river catchment along an anthropogenic land‐cover gradient
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-12-14)Nitrate monitoring is commonly conducted with low‐spatial resolution, only at the outlet or at a small number of selected locations. As a result, the information about spatial variations in nitrate export and its drivers ... -
Systematic Evaluation of Geometry‐Driven Lateral River‐Groundwater Exchange in Floodplains
(Water Resources Research, 2021-08-21)The widening and narrowing of river‐valley aquifers can cause valley‐scale lateral hyporheic exchange even if the river is straight and its slope is uniform. For the aforementioned system, we derive a semi‐analytical ... -
Isotope hydrology and water sources in a heavily urbanized stream
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-10-06)Complex networks of both natural and engineered flow paths control the hydrology of streams in major cities through spatio‐temporal variations in connection and disconnection of diverse water sources. We used spatially ... -
From consumer to enterprise grade: How the choice of four UAS impacts point cloud quality
(Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021-06-10)Uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), combined with structure‐from‐motion photogrammetry, has already proven to be very powerful for a wide range of geoscience applications and different types of UAS are used for scientific and ... -
Spatial and Temporal Variability in Concentration‐Discharge Relationships at the Event Scale
(Water Resources Research, 2021-10-13)The analysis of concentration‐discharge (C‐Q) relationships from low‐frequency observations is commonly used to assess solute sources, mobilization, and reactive transport processes at the catchment scale. High‐frequency ... -
Automatic content‐based georeferencing of historical topographic maps
(Transactions in GIS, 2021-08-30)Old maps are more than a cultural artefact: they are data. Data about the past still hold value for science and decision‐making today. Libraries and archives have come a long way in digitising their inventories of thousands, ... -
Is the soil moisture precipitation feedback enhanced by heterogeneity and dry soils? A comparative study
(Hydrological Processes, 2021-09-09)The interaction between the land surface and the atmosphere is a crucial driver of atmospheric processes. Soil moisture and precipitation are key components in this feedback. Both variables are intertwined in a cycle, that ... -
The effect of stream shading on the inflow characteristics in a downstream reservoir
