In semi-arid environments there is often a lack of data on hydrological variables that limits the ability to understand key hydrological processes. In response to this need, geomorphometric analysis is a quantitative app...

Agricultural drainage carrying significant amounts of nitrogen (N) from agricultural applications poses a significant threat to plant growth, composition, and structure in wetland ecosystems. However, how interspecific c...

Abstract Background Traditional nasal packing following septoplasty imposes significant patient morbidity, including pain, obligate oral breathing, and sleep disruption. Negative pressure drainage (NPD) represents a mech...

Abstract Background and aims Pancreatic duct leaks and fistulas are challenging complications of pancreatitis and pancreatic surgery. Although endoscopic retrograde pancreatic duct drainage (ERPD) is widely used, optimal...

Chattanooga has undergone a remarkable transformation from a heavily industrialized rail depot and one of the nation’s most polluted cities to the first designated National Park City in the United States of America...

Abstract Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide is projected to exceed 800 ppm by 2100, yet its impact on acid mine drainage (AMD), which is currently contaminating 480,000 km of rivers, remains unclear. Here we combine a g...

The capybara, Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris, is an herbivorous rodent widely distributed throughout most of South American wetlands that lives closely associated with aquatic environments. In this work, we studied the geneti...

Rapid flow-like landslides, particularly debris flows and debris avalanches, cause significant economic damage and many victims worldwide every year. They are usually extremely fast with the capability of travelling long...

External ventricular drain (EVD) placement is a standard neurosurgical procedure for cerebrospinal fluid diversion and intracranial pressure monitoring, yet conventional freehand techniques are associated with substantia...

The availability of natural soils with hydraulic conductivity below 1 × 10−9m/sfor liner systems is declining, while industrial waste such as circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) fly ash remains underutilized...

Abstract Background Hepaticojejunostomy stenosis represents a clinically relevant long-term complication after pancreatic surgery and may result in recurrent cholangitis and impaired quality of life. T-tube drainage is o...

Surface water recycling is essential for addressing water scarcity in arid regions like Iran. This study assesses the feasibility of enhancing surface water reuse in Tehran’s urban infrastructure by focusing on the cit...

Abstract Groundwater is a central component of the Earth system. However, our understanding of how it is dynamically interlinked with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and anthroposphere rema...

IntroductionGouty tophi are chronic inflammatory nodules resulting from monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition, often leading to joint deformity, skin ulceration, and functional impairment. Surgical management remains...

BackgroundComplex anal fistulas remain a surgical challenge due to their intricate anatomy, high recurrence rates, and potential for sphincter injury. We report a rare case of complex anal fistula with multiple external ...

Monitored natural recovery (MNR) is an in situ technique of conventional remediation for the treatment of contaminated sediments that relies on natural processes to reduce the bioavailability or toxicity of contaminants....

The article investigates the notion of refugium as both shelter and enclave, situating it in relation to wetlands (swamps, marshes, and peat bogs) and their significance in the literature and cultural imagination of Cent...

Abstract Rapid and continuous urbanization has increased water demand in cities worldwide. Global assessments of urban water scarcity should be conducted using gridded hydrological information, but are hampered by the la...
