Oceandwelling organisms are just as sensitive to climatic changes―in this case temperature and salinity―as land animals. Reef corals can survive only in clear warm seawater. Certain foraminifers are so sensitive to changes in their environment that their presence can be taken as an index of sea...
Groundwater is important for energy and food security, human health and ecosystems. The time since groundwater was recharged—or groundwater age—can be important for diverse geologic processes, such as chemical weathering, ocean eutrophication and clima
On the Earth, hydrologists consider 7 main H 2 O subsets. Let us ordinate them, from the greatest volume to the least (Table 1) and apply to them post-ordinant operations (1). The span of variation, expressed by the extremal ratio R ex (greatest value divided by the smallest), is...
The use of vertical electrical sounding resistivity method for the location of low salinity groundwater for irrigation in Chaj and Rachna Doabs A geoelectrical resistivity survey using vertical electrical sounding (VES) was conducted at Chaj Doab (land between rivers Jhelum and Chenab, Pakistan) an...
Concentrations of cadmium, lead, zinc, and copper were determined. The extent of the sediment pollution wa... A Krika,F Krika - 《Polymer Journal》 被引量: 1发表: 2017年 Understanding land subsidence in the Pearl River Delta region of China based on InSAR observations Land subsidence occurs ...
Since the 1970s, the ocean has absorbed almost all of the additional energy in the Earth system due to greenhouse warming. However, sparse observations limit our knowledge of where ocean heat uptake (OHU) has occurred and where this heat is stored today.
land surface is within thecapillary fringe. Accordingly,Cant and Weech (1986)estimate the actual evapotranspiration (AET) to be 1,150 mm y−1, based on the rainfall total above which surface freshwater bodies can be maintained by recharge from the lens. This estimate of AET for the whole ...
In the present work, a spatio-temporal study of arsenic (As) concentration in groundwater and its impact in barley uptake is presented. The impact of As on barley is studied through the determination of its bioaccumulation in the soil-plant system, As uptake, as well as a correlation between...
And if you go far east into the huge block of the Eurasian land mass, you can get so far away from the effects of the ocean that the coldest temperature, at least in the Northern Hemisphere, was recorded right about here. It was, I think, -127 Fahrenheit. ...
Moisture Active Passive mission to show that surface soil moisture—a storage believed to make up less than 0.001% of the global freshwater budget by volume, and equivalent to an, on average, 8-mm thin layer of water covering all land surfaces—plays a significant role in the water cycle. ...
