Global biogeochemical cycles are interconnected. Alterations to the carbon cycle are akin to inflation with too much money in supply. The same problem is happening with water - freshwater stocks are depleted as more enters the atmosphere, reinforcing climate forcing and driving intense rain events

Global Freshwater Abruptly Declines

The amount of freshwater stored on land and underground has plummeted in the past decade, which might indicate that Earth’s continents have entered a persistently drier phase.

🧪⚒️ My flight from L.A. to Vancouver was empty enough that I was able to take window seat pictures from BOTH sides of the plane, so I played Gotta Catch 'Em All with volcanoes! 🧵 1. Long Valley Caldera 2. Distant blurry Lassen/Kohm Yah-mah-nee 3. Shasta/Waka-nunee-Tuki-wuki 4. Crater Lake/Giiwas

Photo of the gray/green/brown landscape California's Long Valley Caldera, taken from an airplane window. This doesn't look like an archetypal volcano, but the whole elongated flatter area dropped down from the surrounding mountains is the caldera floor. There is a white plume of steam or smoke coming from the crater floor; this is a geothermal plant, or possibly a wildfire, not an eruption!

A low-quality photo taken from an airplane window. It mostly looks like roughly horizontal layers of different shades of blue, but in the middle, a more grayish triangular blob pokes through the blue lines. This is California's Mt. Lassen, which last erupted in 1917.

An airplane window photo of California's Mt. Shasta. The lower half of the image is a darker blue-gray and the top is the bright blue of the sky, but in the middle, a very pointy triangular mountain with some snow still at its top stands out from the backdrop.

A rather low-quality airplane window photo. This is mostly horizontal stripes of blue-gray and gray-brown, but in the middle of the image, a ring of brown within a greener layer encircles blue water. This is Crater Lake, the remnant of former Mt. Mazama/Giiwas blowing itself to smithereens about 7700 years ago.

How do #carbon & #oxygen change during connected, disconnected, & intermediate flow stages of a non-perennial #stream? New #openaccess paper led by recent PhD grad Kristen Bretz & coauthored by #wundergrad alumna Natalie Murphy tackles this question: doi.org/10.1029/2022... #WomeninSTEM #water 🌎 🧪

Map showing location of Beast Stream and our sensor monitoring site near Blacksburg, VA on a topographic map. The right panel shows images of the same location of Beast Stream at baseflow, mid-baseflow, high baseflow, and moderate storm categories

Time series of precipitation, stream flow, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, carbon dioxide, and dissolved organic carbon from July through December in Beast Stream, VA

Dissolved oxygen increased with stream flow and was higher in winter when the stream was reconnected (Dec) than in late summer (Aug); Carbon dioxide decreased with stream flow and was lower in winter than in summer when the stream was disconnected; Carbon dioxide and dissolved oxygen were thus inversely related to each other

There is no systematic relationship between stream discharge (x axis) and dissolved organic carbon (y axis), but there are storm-induced increases in DOC that have a higher rate of change in late summer when the stream is mostly disconnected until a storm pulses water into the stream channel (Aug) than during winter (Nov-Dec) when the stream has reconnected and is fully flowing.
