Hydrology Paper of the Day @corymsimon.bsky.social @chemashlee.bsky.social on passive atmospheric water harvesting via adsorbent nanoporous materials: chemical engineering in the context of regional geography; weather and climate variables in an optimization framework; and modelling water deliveries
💦 in our latest research (with @chemashlee.bsky.social), we framed an optimization problem (a linear program) for designing bespoke mixtures of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for robust, passive atmospheric water harvesting.

Hydrology Paper of the Day @nataliaperez-a.bsky.social on how birds have evolved due to climate change in Barbacoas, Colombia: data from 1912 and 2021; morphometric measurements and Bayesian hierarchical models; and models showing possible relationships with temperature and precipitation.
💥BREAKING: Birds in a tropical pluvial rainforest of the Chocó have been quietly changing in morphology for 109 years. Some have shrunk, others grown. Tails grew longer, bills grew deeper. Even in forests with continuous cover, climate change may be rewriting evolution in real time.

Hydrology Paper of the Day @forestecosyst.bsky.social on how global warming changes biogeography of a peri-urban forest near Freiburg, Germany: the LandClim model demonstrates changes in productivity and tree morality; linkages between infestations and climate change; tree diversity; and management.
Central Europe’s forests face steep biomass losses and beetle outbreaks above 1.5 °C warming; staying below 2 °C keeps timber, carbon and diversity services safer, underscoring the urgency of meeting Paris Agreement targets.
