Hydrochemistry, carbon dynamics, and calculated pCO2 and CO2 fluxes, and soil-derived natural organic matter characteristics from the White Main, a granitic headwater stream in Germany, 2023-2024 – Y1-Y3 carbon chemistry

This dataset comprises hydrochemical and soil data collected along the first 1.3 km downstream of the White Main spring in northern Bavaria, Germany, from March 2023 to April 2024. Stream water samples were analyzed for in-situ parameters (discharge, water temperature [°C], pH [-], redox potential [mV], electrical conductivity [µS/cm], Table Y1), and laboratory-measured parameters, including major ions and trace metals [mmol/L] (Table Y3), alkalinity [mmol/L], , dissolved inorganic and organic carbon (DIC, DOC [mmol/L]) and their stable isotope ratios (δ13CDIC/DOC ‰-VPDB). In addition, calculated partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2, [µatm]) and carbon dioxide fluxes (FCO2, [mmol/m2 d]), are provided for the stream water samples (Table Y2). The dataset also contains laboratory measurements related to soil-derived natural organic matter from acid and base soil extracts, including zeta potential ([mV], Table X1), particle size distribution ([%], Table X2), ultraviolet-visible absorbance (UV-VIS, Table X3), and fluorescence measurements (Table X4). UV-VIS (Table X5) and fluorescence measurements (Table X6) were additionally done for stream water samples. The datasets were collected to characterize hydrochemistry, carbon concentrations, carbon dioxide dynamics, and soil-derived organic matter properties in a granitic headwater stream and to provide a basis for reuse in studies of headwater biogeochemistry, carbon cycling, and soil-water interactions.

Quantified community composition of aquatic insect larvae with urbanization and environmental parameters in artificial microhabitats, Salzburg, June-August 2021

Urbanization affects ecological communities but urban ecology has mostly focused on large and charismatic species. Water-filled tree holes and other ephemeral small standing waters in cities constitute unique but inconspicuous breeding habitats for a range of insects. Their biodiversity is not well known and how their communities respond to increased urbanization in particular, has rarely been studied. Using a Citizen Science Project, we investigated how urbanization (measured as imperviousness, human population density and altered temperature), additional environmental parameters (pH, electric conductivity) and detritus serving as a food source affected larval insect communities in artificial aquatic microhabitats. We found that these habitats were colonized quickly by a range of insect taxa. Their community abundance, richness and decomposition rates were largely stable across different levels of urbanization. Fine detritus content increased larval abundance. Community composition shifted strongly with urbanization. The most abundant and frequent species in our study, the exotic mosquito species Aedes japonicus, responded negatively to imperviousness. Aquatic microhabitats could be shown to be important habitats for aquatic insects in cities. However, their community composition may change with increased urbanization. As our results showed, exotic species such as mosquitoes may dominate the communities in these habitats. In the case of vector species, high abundances may affect human and animal health via increased pathogen transmission. Therefore, we suggest raising awareness about potential risks of these habitats and possible measures preventing the establishment and spread of harmful species, while still supporting native biodiversity in urban spaces.

Early Miocene intensification of the North African hydrological cycle: multi-proxy evidence from the shelf carbonates of Malta - Geochemical data

A total of 140 samples were collected from the il-Blata section outcropping on the Mediterranean Island of Malta (base of section at 35.9004˚N, 14.3309˚E, top of section at 35.9000˚N, 14.3314˚E). 16 of these samples were selected to determine the 87Sr/86Sr in the bulk sediment and used to generate numerical ages using the LOWESS FIT for Sr-Stratigraphy (McArthur et al., 2012). All 87Sr/86Sr measurements conducted at the University of Geneva using a Thermo Neptune PLUS Multi-Collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Data and numerical age model presented in table S1. The εNd data from (Bialik et al., 2019) were recalibrated to fit the new age model and presented in table S2. The percentage carbonate matter was measured using a FOGl digital calcimeter at the University of Malta (table S3). Dry powders were used to generate a stable isotope (δ18O & δ13C) record (table S4), all measurements were conducted on a Gasbench II coupled to a Thermo Delta V Advantage isotope ratio mass spectrometer at the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Cardiff University. Dry bulk sediment powders were also used to obtain major element composition and calculate element ratios Sr/Ca, Ti/Al, K/Al, Zr/Al, Si/Ti. All element measurements were conducted at The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Cardiff University using a hand-held Olympus Delta Innov-X XRF gun. Element data presented in table S5. Mean values of the ratios Sr/Ca, Ti/Al, K/Al, Zr/Al and Si/Ti were obtained for three different parts in the section in order to determine regime changes (table S6).

Immissions- und Emissionsmessungen von Bioaerosolen im Bereich von Geflügel- und Schweinestallungen (Luquasta) - Teilbereich HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein

Bedeutung des Projekts für die Praxis: Die Daten sollen einen Hinweis darauf geben, ob die Maßnahmen in der Landwirtschaft im Luftreinhalteprogramm 2014 des Landes Steiermark eine Minimierung der Bioaerosol Konzentration in der Luft bewirken können. In einem Merkblatt werden Faktoren, die zur Minimierung der Konzentration luftgetragener Keime und Partikel führen, aufgeführt. Wenn zwischen Kontaminationsquellen und Anrainern eine Übertragung von Staub und seinen biologischen Bestandteilen bzw. Keim- und Staubemission weitgehend ausgeschlossen werden kann, sind normalerweise aus umweltmedizinischer Sicht Emissions-minderungsmaßnahmen nicht erforderlich. Mit den vorliegenden Ergebnissen besteht die Möglichkeit ein für die Steiermark und anderen Ländern gültiges Konzept mit regionalspezifischer Vorgehensweise zu erarbeiten. Zielsetzung: Die HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein, Abt. Tierhaltungssysteme, Technik & Emissionen, Institut für Tier, Technik und Umwelt ist im gegenständlichen Projekt (genehmigter Antrag wurde durch die Medizinische Universität Graz gestellt, Nr. 101263/3) entscheidend an der Auswahl der Versuchsbetriebe beteiligt, sie stellt zum Teil die Kontakte zu den Betriebsleitern her, übernimmt in den einzelnen Messkampagnen die Emissionsmessungen an den Kaminöffnungen der Projektbetriebe und ist den gesamten Projektablauf (Planung der Messungen, regelmäßige Besprechungen, Diskussion der Auswertungsergebnisse, Erstellung des Abschlussberichtes) involviert. Des Weiteren werden an den jeweiligen Messtagen auf den Projektbetrieben der Status der Lüftungstechnik (Ansteuerungsleistung der Ventilatoren, Messung der Abluftgeschwindigkeit ...) sowie die Bedingungen im Stall und Tierbereich (Temperatur, Feuchte, Tiergewichte, Futtermittel, Einstreu ...) dokumentiert Das Ziel dieses Projekts besteht darin, den Istzustand der Emissionen und Immissionen von Bioaerosolen und Feinstaubpartikeln im Bereich von Tierhaltungsanlagen mit verschiedenen Messstrategien zu erheben. Für die Beurteilung der anlagenbezogenen Emissionen und Immissionen wird vergleichend die natürliche Hintergrundkonzentration der Bioaerosole und Feinstaubpartikel in der Umgebungsluft bestimmt. Es gilt festzustellen, ob die Keimkonzentrationen der Umgebungsluft aus der Stallluft resultieren. Die Leitparameter (Keime bzw. biogene Substanzen), welche in VDI 4250 Blatt 3 (2016) Richtlinie zur Emissions- und Immissionsbeurteilung herangezogen werden, werden auf ihre Adaptierbarkeit überprüft. Für die zukünftigen Bewertungen der Immissionen werden Ausbreitungsrechnungen durchgeführt, um die Fläche des Areals zu definieren, in dem ein neu zu errichtendes Stallgebäude für die Haltung von Nutztieren stehen soll. Die Daten aus der vorliegenden Studie werden mit den Ergebnissen und Bewertungen anderer EU Länder verglichen, um ein Konzept für eine Bewertungsgrundlage zu erstellen. (Text gekürzt)

Residence times across scales: from plot to catchment scale

Residence times is a key signature to characterize flow and transport at all temporal and spatial scales in different hydrological compartments. It is assumed that the spatial organisation of the landscape controls space-time organisation of the water cycle and related processes and hence the residence time. Combining flux and residence concentration data of natural tracers in water, stable isotopes, and artificial tracers will allow us to predict residence time and flow pathways in the different hydrological compartments as well as integrative for entire watersheds. We will investigate with different methods the fingerprint of hydrological processes found in the signal of isotopic composition and natural and artificial tracers of soil, ground and stream water in space and time. The temporal variability of isotopes in soil water, groundwater and stream water will be combined to benchmark transport and flow models and to derive a new functional form of short to long-term transit time distributions. The spatial patterns of stable isotopes in the saturated and unsaturated zone will be used to derive long-term flow pathways, mixing patterns and the proportion of evaporation to transpiration. Artificial tracer experiments using salt and electric resistivities will vizualize and quantify internal flow pathways in particular preferential flow pathways.

hydrodownloadR: transparent and reproducible access to hydrological time series

Hydrological science depends on reliable observations. At the same time, many hydrological datasets are distributed across numerous national and regional services, each with its own access routes, documentation, and terms of use. This fragmentation can make it difficult to clearly document where data come from and to reproduce data retrieval in a consistent way. To provide more transparent and reproducible access to hydrological observations, GRDC has developed hydrodownloadR . The R package offers a standardized way to discover hydrological stations and download daily time series such as discharge, water level, water temperature and selected water-quality parameters directly from public national and regional APIs. Transparency in data retrieval is crucial because hydrological assessments and scientific results must be explainable and verifiable across institutions. This is particularly relevant for the annually released WMO State of the Global Water Resources Report , for which GRDC provides data. The hydrodownloadR package supports data retrieval workflows for both routine GRDC data updates and the WMO report. However, the package can also benefit users who require stations that are not yet included in the GRDC database. In such cases, the package provides a straightforward way to access time series directly from the original provider while keeping the data source explicit. It is important that hydrodownloadR , where available, highlights licensing and terms of use information for each API. Furthermore it is designed to access services responsibly by avoiding excessive requests. Nevertheless, users remain responsible for complying with the providers’ terms of use and citation requirements. Coverage and available parameters depend on the underlying public APIs and their data policies. Call to action: If you know a public hydrology API or you operate one, please share with us the documentation link, licensing information, terms of use and, if possible, stable endpoints. Also, if you encounter errors or unexpected behavior, please report them via the project’s GitHub issue tracker so we can address them efficiently. This will help to further improve the package and optimize the discoverability and accessibility of hydrological data. Links: Documentation Source code and issue tracker
