Many geoscientists now recognize stemflow as an important phenomenon which can exert
considerable effects on the hydrology, biogeochemistry, and ecology of wooded ecosystems …

Environmental monitoring is often criticized as being unscientific, too expensive, and
wasteful. While some monitoring studies do suffer from these problems, there are also many …

Many processes lead to variability of catchment concentration‐discharge relationships, but
exports of geogenic (weathering derived) solutes and nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus …

Conservation organizations have most often focused on land‐use change, climate change,
and invasive species as prime threats to biodiversity conservation. Although air pollution is …

Acidic deposition is comprised of sulfuric and nitric acids and ammonium derived from
atmospheric emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and ammonia, respectively. Acidic …

The biogeochemical behavior of carbon in the forested watersheds of the Hubbard Brook
Experimental Forest (HBEF) was analyzed in long-term studies. The largest pools of C in the …

Globally, sulfur (S) applications to croplands result in S inputs that often exceed historical
atmospheric deposition. Sulfur is applied to crops as a fertilizer, fungicide, soil conditioner …

To guide environmental policy effectively, scientists face the difficult but crucial task of clearly
communicating evidence‐based information to the public and to policy makers. Frequently …

Taking a functional rather than an ecosystem or a utilitarian approach, Thomas and
Packham provide a concise account of the structure of woodlands and forests. Using …

The natural abundance of nitrogen and oxygen isotopes in nitrate can be a powerful tool for
identifying the source of nitrate in streamwater in forested watersheds, because the two main …
