Summary: This study investigated energy sources and trophic interactions among vent fauna in deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the North Fiji Basin. The findings indicate that symbiont-bearing taxa have different carbon fixation pathways or nutrient preferences. Niche partitioning was observed among omnivores, with different resources or microhabitats being utilized. The crab was found to be the top predator in the ecosystem, consuming a variety of prey but with a lower preference for mussels. Overall, the vent fauna displayed non-overlapping diets and spatial niches, with each taxon having unique energy sources.

Summary: This study investigates the water movement, volume, residence time (RT), sediment trapping efficiency (TE), and dissolved oxygen concentrations (DO) in the Atchafalaya River Basin, an important bottomland hardwood swamp in the United States. The results show that water discharge and residence time are influenced by connectivity and river stage, and high stages with warm water temperatures lead to a decline in DO. Suspended sediment concentrations are correlated with hydrologic connectivity, RT, water volume, discharge losses, and TE. The high TE and long RT indicate the potential of this ecosystem to process nutrients and reduce nutrient loads to the northern Gulf of Mexico.

Summary: This study found that the PBC/POC ratio in Xijiang River was slightly higher, possibly due to the mobility difference between POC and PBC, aerosol BC input and riverine biogenic effect. The isotopic compositions of PBC depleted 13 C compared with POC and DOC, indicating possible sources from biomass burning or fossil fuel combustion BC particles input and fractionation during soil organic matter production. The MixSIAR model showed that most PBC in the study area was derived from fossil fuel combustion.

Summary: Topological flow properties are important for understanding solute transport in aquifers. However, these properties are affected by uncertainty in the flow problem solution. This study focuses on the uncertainty related to transient boundary conditions, specifically the fluctuation of river stage due to hydropeaking events. Different boundary conditions, including triangular wave, sine wave, complex wave, and trapezoidal wave, are used to model the river stage fluctuations. Polynomial chaos expansions are employed to quantify the spatial and temporal uncertainty in the hydraulic head and the Okubo-Weiss metric. The results show that the wave-shaped transient boundary conditions not only impact the magnitude of deformation and rotation forces of the flow field, but also the temporal dynamics between local strain and rotation properties. The level of uncertainty varies depending on the applied boundary condition.

Summary: Snowfall and snow accumulation have a significant impact on the Alpine region's ecosystems and human activities. Global warming is threatening this resource, making it urgent to understand snowfall trends in time and space. Analysis of snowfall data in the northeastern Italian Alps revealed negative trends at lower elevations throughout the winter season and positive trends at higher elevations from January to March. Precipitation was found to be the primary driver of snowfall trends, but temperature played a more important role at lower elevations during mid-winter. The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Arctic Oscillation (AO) indices had no significant correlations with snowfall, except at lower elevations and the beginning of the season.

Summary: Salt dilution is a reliable method for measuring streamflow in creeks, especially downstream of turbulent flow sections. Manual measurements of salt dilution have limitations in observing rare peak flow events. An automated streamflow measuring system was used to overcome these limitations and detect changes in the rating curve caused by erosion and deposition processes. The system's reliability was evaluated using a large dataset and the primary sources of uncertainty were identified.

Summary: High-resolution climate data is crucial for predicting regional climate and water environment changes. In this study, a two-step downscaling method was developed to enhance the spatial resolution of GCM data and improve the accuracy for small basins. The method combined medium-resolution climate data with high-resolution topographic data to capture spatial and temporal details. The downscaled climate data were then used to simulate the impacts of climate change on hydrology and water quality in a small basin. The results demonstrated the effectiveness of the downscaling method for spatially differentiated simulations.
