Groundwater–surface-water (GW-SW) interactions in streams are difficult to quantify because of heterogeneity in hydraulic and reactive processes across a range of spatial and temporal scales. The challenge of quantifying these interactions has led to the development of several techniques, from centimeter-scale probes to whole-system tracers, including chemical, thermal, and electrical...
Excess NO₃⁻ in streams is a growing and persistent problem for both inland and coastal ecosystems, and denitrification is the primary removal process for NO₃⁻. Hyporheic zones can have high denitrification potentials, but their role in reach- and network-scale NO₃⁻ removal is unknown because it is difficult to estimate. We...
