Landscape Organization and Scale Shape Catchment Hydrology and Biogeochemistry
Resolving these scale-dependent processes is important for predicting, preventing, or mitigating environmental changes that may influence patterns of surface water chemistry within river systems.
Heat-Triggered Release: Opening the Banksia Seed Pod
The Banksia delays the release of its mature seed bank until conditions are right for new plants. Now we know what triggers it to let go.
Evolutionary Leap in Large-Scale Flood Risk Assessment Needed
A call to develop interaction-aware risk models is presented, and the need for adjustments of the flood risk assessment procedures in the implementation of the European Flood Directive is highlighted.
