Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of nitrate production and removal as a function of residence time in the hyporheic zone
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured solute concentrations (15 NO3, 15 N2 (g), as well as NO3, N H3, DOC, DO, Cl − ), and hydraulic transport parameters (head, flow rates, flow paths, and residence time distributions) of an instrumented gravel bar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organic carbon supply and metabolism in a shallow groundwater ecosystem
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence on groundwater heterotrophic metabolism of DOC availability, inorganic nitrogen (N), inorganic phosphorus (P), temperature, and season were assessed using laboratory manipulations of aquifer sediments and seasonal measurements in field microcosms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coupled biogeochemical and hydrological responses of streams and rivers to drought
TL;DR: In this article, the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) was used to measure the severity of severe or extreme droughts over a 105-year record from central New Mexico, U.S.A.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are rivers just big streams? A pulse method to quantify nitrogen demand in a large river.
TL;DR: It is found that the Upper Snake had surprisingly high biotic demand relative to smaller streams in the same river network for both ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3-), suggesting that large rivers may have similar bioticDemand for N as smaller tributaries.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This article investigated how ecosystem responses to the flood pulse relate to forest IFI by quantifying nutrient and organic matter dynamics in the Rio Grande floodplain during three years of experimental flooding of disconnected floodplain and during a single year of natural flooding of the connected floodplain.
