Using radon as a proxy for assessing groundwater flow through fractures in a montane watershed

April 4, 2022

Streamflow derived from montane environments is important for downstream communities but is vulnerable due to decreasing snowpack from climate change. Earlier peak flows induced by warming conditions will cause lower summer flows leading to an increased reliance on groundwater. Although snowpacks are the dominant source of streamflow in southwestern montane...

Why does variability in chemostatic concentration-discharge relationships differ systematically between solutes in Antarctic streams?

April 9, 2021

Concentration-discharge (C-Q) relationships have been widely applied to infer integrated hydrologic and biogeochemical processes at the catchment-scale. Apart from event hysteresis or comparisons between catchments, relatively little attention has been given to the “noise” within long-term C-Q patterns. We analyze over two decades of historic data from 10 streams in...

Improving Natural Water Quality through Wastewater Reuse

April 9, 2021

Wastewater reuse is a growing application in many areas of the world as water scarcity is becoming a major issue due to climate change and exponential population growth. In Colorado, water reuse is becoming more viable because of drought and increased water demand. However, chemical contamination from industrial and domestic...

Numerical Simulation of Partially Frozen Soils to Understand Aufeis Formation in Polar Regions

April 9, 2021

Many hydrologic features in the polar regions will be impacted by increasing temperatures because of climate change. One of these such features is Aufeis (also known as Icings) which are large sheets of ice that form in river channels that can stay frozen well into summer. These features can be...

Using fluorescence spectroscopy to detect photochemical changes of dissolved wildfire byproducts

April 9, 2021

Nearly 80% of the United States’ freshwater originates in forested landscapes at risk of wildfires (United States Geological Survey (USGS), 2018), which influence both the terrestrial landscape and hydrologic regime by introducing a heterogeneous spectrum of thermally altered carbon compounds, known as pyrogenic carbon (PyC) (Bird et al., 2015). Given...

Modeling the recent and future water and sediment discharge regime of the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta in response to a changing climate

April 9, 2021

The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) rivers carry a massive sediment load that feeds the world’s largest depositional system: the GBM megadelta. The mass of sediment transported annually by the GBM rivers has not been well constrained; previous estimates range between 0.5 and 2.4 BT/year. The present study attempts to resolve the sediment...

The Colorado River Basin Robustness Analysis web application: a novel tool for visualizing and filtering candidate Lake Mead operation policies

April 9, 2021

This presentation reveals the Colorado River Basin (CRB) Robustness Analysis web application. Robustness analysis is the process of simulating management alternatives in an ensemble of plausible future States of the World (SOW), then using statistical functions, called robustness metrics, to quantify the performance of each alternative when “stress-tested” in the...
