Groundwater is an increasingly important water supply source globally. Understanding the amount of groundwater used versus volume available crucial to evaluate future availability. We present a stress assessment quantify relationship between use and availability in world's 37 largest aquifer systems. according ratio availability, which we call Renewable Stress ratio. The impact quantifying based on nationally reported withdrawal statistics compared novel approach remote sensing observations...

The Gorkha earthquake (magnitude 7.8) on 25 April 2015 and later aftershocks struck South Asia, killing ~9000 people damaging a large region. Supported by campaign of responsive satellite data acquisitions over the disaster zone, our team undertook image survey earthquakes' induced geohazards in Nepal China an assessment geomorphic, tectonic, lithologic controls quake-induced landslides. Timely analysis communication aided response recovery informed decision-makers. We mapped 4312 coseismic...

Abstract. The strong elevation gradient of the Himalaya allows investigation altitude and orographic impacts on precipitation isotope values as captured in river samples. This study provides new high-elevation data along a 5000 m collected from rain, snow, glacial-sourced surface waters time-series April to October 2016 differentiate time-variable contributions source Arun River. We find nonlinear trends δ18O δD lapse rates driven by samples at high elevations distinct seasonal signal...

Sahoo et al. [2016] introduce a discussion on the ability of satellite observations, from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission, to assess groundwater storage change in High Plains Aquifer based findings by Richey [2015a]. [2015a] use GRACE observations estimate trend subsurface world's 37 largest aquifer systems. They found be 0.31 ± 1.0 millimeters per year (mm/yr) (0.16 0.51 cubic kilometers (km3/yr)). [] compare previous estimates their own using available level data....
