Influence of rainfall event characteristics and antecedent conditions on subsurface stormflow response of two forested hillslopes Open
Subsurface stormflow (SSF) is a critical runoff-producing mechanism in many upland and mountainous environments, yet the complex relationships between antecedent conditions, rainfall characteristics and SSF response are still not fully und…

Delayed uptake and intra-tree distribution of 2H-labelled irrigation water after repeated experimental summer drought in mature spruce compared to beech Open
Water uptake and distribution are critical for drought recovery, yet previous drought conditions have been shown to impair water transport by affecting soil-root contact and xylem conductivity. In order to investigate these dynamics, the a…

Uncertainty and non-stationarity of empirical streamflow sensitivities Open
The sensitivity of streamflow to changes in driving variables such as precipitation and potential evaporation is a key signature of catchment behaviour. Due to increasing interest in climate change impacts, streamflow sensitivities derived…

Matching scales of eddy covariance measurements and process-based modeling – Assessing spatiotemporal dynamics of carbon and water fluxes in a mixed forest in Southern Germany Open
Eddy covariance (EC) measurements are a backbone of ecological research and have provided valuable insights into the variability of carbon and water fluxes in different ecosystems and under varying environmental conditions. Since these mea…

Brief Communication: Investigating the invisible subsurface stormflow process through a thorough and systematic study across sites and scales Open
Subsurface stormflow (SSF) is one of the least studied and therefore least understood runoff generation processes because detecting and quantifying SSF is extremely challenging. However, the impact of SSF on streamflow dynamics and water q…

Technical note: An innovative monitoring approach to measure spatio-temporal throughfall patterns in forests Open
Throughfall in forests is spatially highly heterogeneous creating distinct patterns that persist over time and propagate with infiltration into the soil. Despite its importance for forest ecohydrological processes, experimentally derived h…

State of the art: Pregnancy in spinal muscular atrophy in the treatment era Open
An increasing number of adults with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) wish to become parents. New disease-modifying therapies (DMT) have improved health outcomes and are expected to reduce disability in adults with SMA, but their current label…

Forest Snow Patterns Derived Using ClustSnow Are Temporally Persistent Under Variable Environmental Conditions Open
Snow distribution affects water availability locally and downstream, especially in forests where snow amounts vary across small spatial scales (<3 m). Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV)‐based Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) measurements rev…

Streamflow sensitivity regimes of alpine catchments: seasonal relationships with elevation, temperature, and glacier cover Open
Alpine streams supply water to mountains and downstream regions, but their sensitivity to climatic variability is complex. Here, we derive streamflow sensitivity regimes from long-term observations in the Swiss Alps and analyse their poten…

Detecting the occurrence of preferential flow in soils with stable water isotopes Open
Subsurface flow in preferential pathways in soils may transport water more rapidly than the soil matrix, which may be quickly activated during precipitation events and enhancing infiltration or interflow. Vertical pathways are particularly…

Dynamic Shifts in Radial Sap Flow of Two Temperate Tree Species in Response to the Dry Summer 2022 Open
Species‐specific regulation of water fluxes and storage in the xylem are important drivers of drought tolerance. However, differences may occur along the radial profile of the xylem, potentially modifying drought responses. We investigated…

The Pluvial Flood Index (PFI): a new instrument for evaluating flash flood hazards and facilitating real-time warning Open
Pluvial (flash) floods frequently cause damage in rural and urban watersheds as a result of short-term, intense local precipitation events that cause infiltration excess runoff and overland flow. Unlike fluvial floods, pluvial floods are p…
