Terrestrial runoff can negatively impact marine ecosystems through stressors including excess nutrients, freshwater, sediments, and contaminants. Severe storms, which are increasing with global climate change, generate massive inputs of runoff over short timescales (hours to days); such runoff impacted offshore reefs in the northwest Gulf of Mexico (NW GoM) following severe storms in 2016 and 2017. Several weeks after coastal...

Salinization is increasingly recognized as a global issue. However, the relative importance of different drivers across a broad range of ions and ecosystems is not well understood. This study examined spatial and temporal dynamics in riverine salinity (conductivity, Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Na + , K + , , Cl − and ) in the South Saskatchewan River Basin (SSRB), a semi‐arid, mixed land use watershed in Alberta, Canada. A significant tem...
