This aerial image of the San Andreas Fault in the Carrizo Plain shows numerous curved drainages where fault slip has stretched stream channels to the left. Eventually, the channels get ‘reset’ when ...

The Mississippi River—it’s a big deal, OK? The combined ports of South Louisiana and New ­Orleans move more cargo, ton for ton, than any other US port. So figuring out the Mississippi’s ...

Climate models attempt to represent the entire Earth system including the land, atmosphere, and ocean. This project will use advanced local models to ‘see’ mountain ranges; Represent river headwaters, ...

A high-resolution climate model is able to accurately capture the ribbons of moist air that sometimes escape the sodden tropics and flow toward the drier mid-latitudes, allowing scientists to ...

Nearly 2,000 people wrote to the Washington Department of Ecology when the agency was developing flow rules for the Spokane River last fall. Some discussed how Spokane’s urban river looked with ...

River temperature is a critical variable that influences the physical, chemical, and biological functions of ecosystems. Climate change is predicted to increase river temperatures worldwide, adding ...

The invasion of nonnative species has widespread and detrimental effects on local and global ecosystems. These intruders often spread and multiply prolifically, displace native species, alter the ...

From their second-story vantage point, the governor and a fleet of scientists, politicians and philanthropists peered down at a basketball court-sized model of southeast Louisiana. In the top left ...
