Abstract: The abundant occurrence of faults and failures in sensors for environmental process monitoring is frequently cited as a major challenge for process monitoring and control of environmental systems. Despite the wide recognition of this challenge, little is known about the cause-and-effect relationships between sensor wear-and-tear (e.g., salt deposition, fouling) and the appearance of fault ...

Abstract: Landscapes are characterized by preferential flow and pervasive heterogeneity on all scales. They therefore store and transmit water and solutes over a wide spectrum of time scales, with important implications for contaminant transport, weathering rates, and stream chemistry. Catchment transit time distributions are nonstationary, reflecting fluctuations in precipitation forcing, heterogeneity in catchments themselves, and ...

Abstract: Anthropogenically enhanced melting of snow and ice in polar regions and the associated sea level rise are controlled by changes in albedo. On land and on the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) in particular, such changes are primarily a consequence of increased delivery of light absorbing impurities (LAI) as they accelerate melting.
