Hydrology Paper of the Day @rarakihydro.bsky.social on a model of soil moisture loss that utilizes a nonlinear function: model fitting to SMAP remote sensing data; an examination of global-scale patterns; how aridity, sand fraction and landcover affects outputs; and the role of evapotranspiration.

@weepondproject.bsky.social I *love* your project! We only have a small yard, but have managed to squeeze in three very wee ponds (unfortunately all raised as it wasn't possible to sink them). Not too messy yet, but hopefully they'll blend in with the overgrown wildflowers in the adjacent beds soon.

Hydrology Paper of the Day @olefeldt.bsky.social on how a new version of the Global Lakes and Wetlands Database was calculated from freely-available satellite and ground based observations: capturing seasonality and classes; integration of wetlands and peatlands; and robust validation.

Short #hydrology 🧵 on pumping and coastal #climateadaptation … Most ppl don’t realize that levees require pumps. And in former wetland soils, pumping = sinking. As if that’s not bad enough, pumping can bring saltwater groundwater upwards by 40 ft for every 1 ft the water table is lowered. 1/n
