Model inputs and estimated total nitrogen and total phosphorus loads used in the development of Mississippi SPARROW models, 2018 base year Model inputs and estimated total nitrogen and total phosphorus loads used in the development of Mississippi SPARROW models, 2018 base year

Degradation of water quality from nutrient pollution continues to be a challenge for water resource managers. The development of effective management strategies begins with tools that facilitate an understanding of nutrient sources and transport. SPARROW (SPAtially Referenced Regression On Watershed attributes) is a spatially explicit model platform that correlates water-quality...

Tables and figures for the unrecognized role of uranium transport in the Devils Hole, Nevada climate record Tables and figures for the unrecognized role of uranium transport in the Devils Hole, Nevada climate record

For more than a half million years, dense vein calcite has been precipitating in Devils Hole, located about 115 km northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. This process also occurs in Devils Hole Cave 2, which is hydrologically connected and situated about 200 meters north of the original Devils Hole cave. Calcite has been precipitating in this natural laboratory in oxygen isotopic equilibrium at...
