Resolving Aquifer Controls on Larger River-Groundwater Exchanges of Mass and Energy

April 7, 2021

Tracer experiments have been used to study the exchanges of channel waters with groundwater in streams and their impacts on ecosystem function and water quality are well documented (Bencala & Walters, 1983; Mulholland et al., 1997). However, these experiments are much more difficult in larger rivers due to higher flows...

Temporary decline in atmospheric carbon dioxide in Detroit, MI due to the Covid-19 pandemic

April 7, 2021

Reduced human activity associated with lockdown protocols due to the Covid-19 pandemic have temporarily changed carbon emission patterns of urban ecosystems globally. Understanding how these changes anthropogenic activities contribute to the urban emissions offer the opportunity to better understand the carbon dynamics outside pandemic conditions. Here we explore how the...
