Using Physiography as a Lens to Understand Stream Network Expansion and Contraction Across Spatiotemporal Scales Open
Non-perennial streams (i.e., streams that cease flowing regularly across time or space) comprise 60% of the global river network and play an important role in the physical, chemical, and biological functions of downstream waters. However, …

Lagged impacts of groundwater pumping on streamflow due to stream drying: Incorporation into analytical streamflow depletion estimation methods Open
Water management often requires accounting for reductions in streamflow caused by groundwater pumping (‘streamflow depletion’). Since streamflow depletion cannot be quantified from observational data, it is typically modeled. Analytical de…

Assessing the effectiveness of irrigator-driven groundwater conservation programs to drought: a case study of the northwestern Kansas Local Enhanced Management Areas Open
Groundwater pumping for irrigation has led to declining groundwater levels in agricultural areas around the world, including the U.S. High Plains Aquifer. Here, we used a process-based crop model, AquaCrop, to assess the effectiveness of d…

Fungal communities across a surface water permanence gradient in a non-perennial prairie stream network Open
Over half of the world’s streams are non-perennial, drying at some point in space and time, but most research on stream-inhabiting fungi comes from perennial (continuously flowing) streams. To improve our understanding of fungal communitie…

Streamflow Depletion Caused by Groundwater Pumping: Fundamental Research Priorities for Management‐Relevant Science Open
Reductions in streamflow caused by groundwater pumping, known as “streamflow depletion,” link the hydrologic process of stream‐aquifer interactions to human modifications of the water cycle. Isolating the impacts of groundwater pumping on …

Estimating irrigation water use from remotely sensed evapotranspiration data: Accuracy and uncertainties across spatial scales Open
Irrigated agriculture is the dominant use of water globally, but most water withdrawals are not monitored or reported. As a result, it is largely unknown when, where, and how much water is used for irrigation. Here, we evaluated the abilit…

How low can you go? Widespread challenges in measuring low stream discharge and a path forward Open
Low flows pose unique challenges for accurately quantifying streamflow. Current field methods are not optimized to measure these conditions, which in turn, limits research and management. In this essay, we argue that the lack of methods fo…
