The critical zone (CZ) includes natural and anthropogenic environments, where life, energy
and matter cycles combine in complex interactions in time and space. Critical zone …

Groundwater-surface water (GW-SW) interaction, as a key component in the cold region
hydrologic cycle, is extremely sensitive to seasonal and climate change. Specifically, the …

Bedrock property quantification is critical for predicting the hydrological response of
watersheds to climate disturbances. Estimating bedrock hydraulic properties over watershed …

Climate influences near-surface biogeochemical processes and thereby determines the
partitioning of carbon dioxide (CO2) in shale, and yet the controls on carbon (C) weathering …

In this study, we develop a watershed zonation approach for characterizing watershed
organization and functions in a tractable manner by integrating multiple spatial data layers …

Despite the importance of headwater catchments for the water supply of the western United
States, these regions are often poorly understood, particularly with respect to quantitative …

Concentration-discharge (CQ) relationships have been widely used as “hydrochemical
tracers” to determine the variability in riverine solute exports across event, seasonal, annual …

Atmospheric nitrous oxide contributes directly to global warming, yet models of the nitrogen
cycle do not account for bedrock, the largest pool of terrestrial nitrogen, as a source of …

The weathering of shale exerts an important control on the hydrochemical fluxes to river
systems, thus influencing the global carbon, nutrient, and geochemical cycles. However, the …

Predicting the hydrological response of watersheds to climate disturbances requires a
detailed understanding of the processes connecting hillslopes and streams. Using a network …
