Europe’s water law needs genomic resolution

Adrian-Stefan Andrei; Hans-Peter Grossart; Jakob Pernthaler

The authors recommend a new genetic approach for the obligatory measurements under the European Water Framework Directive (WFD). Currently, the diversity of phytoplankton – i.e. microalgae – is assessed as a key parameter for water quality using an inverse microscope technique that has been in use since 1958.

Stepwise tracer-based hydrograph separation to quantify contributions of multiple sources of streamflow in a large glacierized catchment over the Tibetan Plateau

Guangxuan Li; Xi Chen; Man Gao; Zhicai Zhang; Chris Soulsby; Doerthe Tetzlaff; Yuyi Wang

The authors identified the sources of streamflow and their temporal dynamics in a glacierized catchment of the Tibetan Plateau using isotopic and geochemical signatures. They demonstrated that incorporation of high-resolution tracer data in an appropriate model structure can help resolve streamflow components and identify the dynamics of dominant recharge sources in cryosphere environments.
