In recent decades, escalating climate change, continuous population growth, rapid urbanization, and extensive agricultural development have placed increasing pressure on global ecosystems. Particularly in China, intensiv...

We present a study of the microscopic dynamics of water trapped in reverse non-ionic micelles by means of a series of molecular dynamics simulations. The analysis of the effects of micellar confinement on spectroscopical...

IntroductionUrban wetlands are considered an important nature-based solution to mitigate flood impacts in built-up areas like Colombo, Sri Lanka, due to rapid urbanization and intensifying rainfall events. Wetlands withi...

Estuaries function as sinks for microplastics due to their proximity to urban areas and pollution sources. Because of the great availability of plastic debris in these areas, these pollutants can be accumulated in biota ...

Underwater gas pipelines are vital for energy transportation but are often subjected to harsh environments, and any leakage can have significant environmental consequences. Substantial underestimation of gas plume format...

Abstract This study introduces a novel nonlinear mathematical model by considering three dynamic variables: densities of human population and industries, and concentration of atmospheric pollutants. The formulated model ...

Spatio-temporal evaluation of agricultural water use under both observed and future climate conditions is essential for identifying opportunities for water conservation and supporting sustainable farming practices. Howev...

The purpose of this study was to assess hydrological controls (e.g., rainfall, irrigation practices, river discharge, dam operation, evaporation) on surface (SW)- ground water (GW) interactions in an irrigated valley wit...

This study employs molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to systematically investigate the effects of the degree of polymerization (DP 10, 20, and 35) on the mechanical and tribological properties of nitrile butadiene rubb...

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, launched in December 2022, is the first wide‐swath altimetry mission designed to improve our understanding of surface water dynamics through high‐resolu...

The article contains results of a statistical study of water resource accounting in Ukraine in the conditions of martial law. The regulatory framework of water use is shown: constitutional principles and provisions of th...

BackgroundObesity is a major risk factor for lipotoxic cardiomyopathy, a process involving lipid metabolism disorders, inflammatory responses, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen), a traditional C...

Background and purposeRadiotherapy (RT) often causes delayed radiation-induced brain injury (RBI) with unclear pathophysiology; emerging evidence links this to glymphatic dysfunction, but radiation effects on cerebrospin...

Abstract Background Microhabitat heterogeneity plays a crucial role in shaping plant water use strategies and ecophysiological processes in arid ecosystems, yet little is known about the coupled response of leaf water is...

Numerous research efforts have explored novel strategies to alleviate water scarcity in various regions of Ethiopia. In this context, growing attention has been directed toward assessing the economic value of multiple wa...

Abstract Invasive water hyacinth threatens Lake Tana, Ethiopia—the source of the Blue Nile. This study presents the first comprehensive 11-year (2013–2024) remote sensing assessment of the water hyacinth invasion dyn...

Using molecular dynamics experiments, we analyze equilibrium and dynamical characteristics related to the solvation of excess protons in water-acetone mixtures. Our approach is based on the implementation of an extended ...

Abstract Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) production is increasingly challenged by water limitations and declining soil quality, necessitating efficient alternatives to conventional cultivation. This review examines the ...

Abstract Enhanced Antarctic ice sheet mass loss yields ocean surface freshening, cooling and sea ice expansion, which result in changes in the atmospheric conditions. Using the Southern Ocean Freshwater Input from Antarc...

The article examines the role of statistical accounting and classification of water resources in ensuring sustainable development, environmental balance, and economic security. Water is not only a fundamental component o...

Abstract River water quality forecasting on directed river networks requires jointly modeling temporal dynamics and directional spatial dependencies among monitoring sites. Existing spatio-temporal models often emphasize...

The marine environment plays a central role in the migration of Homo sapiens to Sahul c. 65,000 years ago. Despite the lower mean sea level at this time, humans must have made a maritime crossing from Sunda to Sahul. Whi...

Abstract Coastal erosion is an increasingly dominant sediment source in marginal seas, particularly in low‐lying areas affected by deltaic subsidence and sediment deficits from upstream water management. However, its r...

Many of Earth's most biodiverse and biogeochemically active aquatic ecosystems—including groundwater karst systems, turbid estuaries and the deep ocean—are perpetually dark and hydraulically complex, making long-term...
