Groundwater in the upper Arkansas River corridor has been contaminated by elevated concentrations of dissolved solids in Arkansas River water. Most of the dissolved solids originate from the soils and bedrock in eastern Colorado, where river water is …
Groundwater pumping-induced reductions in streamflow (known as 'streamflow depletion') have been documented worldwide, but potential impacts of streamflow depletion on water quality indicators like stream temperature are not well understood. Here, we …
Water management often requires accounting for reductions in streamflow caused by groundwater pumping (‘streamflow depletion’). Since streamflow depletion cannot be quantified from observational data, it is typically modeled. Analytical depletion …
Decision-support systems using environmental data and models are increasingly common, but not always adopted by the intended end-users. This disconnect may be partly due to different values related to nature and the scientific process. In this study, …
Non-perennial streams constitute over half the world's stream miles but are not commonly included in streamflow monitoring networks. As a result, Stream Temperature, Intermittency, and Conductivity (STIC) loggers are widely used for characterizing …
Climate change is increasingly impacting water availability. National-scale hydrologic models simulate streamflow resulting from many important processes, but often without processes such as human water use and management activities. This work …
Transitions between dry and wet hydrologic states are the defining characteristic of non-perennial rivers and streams, which constitute the majority of the global river network. Although past work has focused on stream drying characteristics, there …
Reductions in streamflow caused by groundwater pumping, known as streamflow depletion, link the hydrologic process of stream-aquifer interactions to human modifications of the water cycle. Isolating the impacts of groundwater pumping on streamflow is …
Intermittent streams, which lack continuous surface water flow throughout the year, constitute a large proportion of global waterways and influence downstream water quality and quantity. Stream intermittency has been increasing in the Great Plains …
