Improved urban runoff prediction using high-resolution land-use, imperviousness, and stormwater infrastructure data applied to a process-based ecohydrological model. by Jonathan Halama, Robert McKane, Bradley Barnhart, Paul Pettus, Allen Brookes, Kevin Djang, Vivian Phan, Sonali Chokshi, James Graham

“…Many urban communities use heavily engineered gray infrastructure to achieve that goal, along with more recent additions of green infrastructure such as rain gardens, bioswales, and riparian corridors. Therefore, successfully characterizing those design details and associated management practices, interactions, and impacts requires a detailed understanding of how fine and course-scale hydrologic processes and routing are altered and managed in urban watersheds. …”

Betula pendula Roth. survival and growth in treeline is affected by genotype and environment by Kari Saikkonen, Otto Saikkonen, Marjo Helander, Irma Saloniemi

“…Furthermore, the performance of half-sib families varied depending on the garden they were grown in. These results demonstrate that the acclimation capacity of B. pendula allows its distribution to expand north from the present range; however, local abiotic environmental conditions (soil fertility and winter temperatures) and other selection pressures (herbivory) are likely to affect the genetic structure and growth of B. pendula populations.…”
