The total quantity of water is not known very accurately,but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two and three-quarter kilometers. Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans -- about 97 percent. The rest is fresh,but three-...
While significant parts of the globe are already facing significant freshwater scarcity, the need for more freshwater is projected to increase in order to sustain the increasing global population and economic growth, and adapt to climate change. Current approaches for addressing this challenge, which ...
water research requires the integrated contribution of scientists from different disciplines, across the natural and social sciences and engineering. We aim to publish studies that can

10.The globe had been trailing along the coastline, and now it angled out to glide over a long finger of cape, rocky and waterworn, which pointed at almost a right angle into the sea. 11.As he walked across the waterworn shelf at the foot of the sheer cliff, his eye was caught by...
fisheries around the world, an industrial fishery has entered the scene, and increased extraction, coupled with climate change and habitat degradation, resulted in declining populations and increased regulation and curtailment of the fishery. This is a story common to migratory fish across the globe....
Planet Labs PBC operates the PlanetScope constellation of 200 CubeSat (i.e., small, low-cost) satellites (Planet Labs, 2022), imaging a large proportion of the globe every day (Planet Labs, 2018). There have been 3 generations of these PlanetScope “Dove” satellites, improving the radiomet...
Water stress is often evaluated by scarcity: the share of available water supply being consumed by humans. However, some consumptive uses of water are more or less flexible than others, depending on the costs or effects associated with their curtailment.
