Warming Pacific releases methane equivalent to Deepwater Horizon spill each year
The ocean keeps secrets from surface to seafloor, and some even deeper still. A group of researchers from University of Washington discovered one such secret by accident — and their findings could change the scientific world’s understanding of climate change and its relation to the Pacific. “In 2013, we were preparing for a research expedition that had nothing to do with this,” said Evan Solomon, assistant professor of oceanography at UW. “We wanted to get a long-term record of bottom water temperature variability.” The team gathered conductivity, temperature and depth profiles off the Washington coast. A comparison with other research quickly revealed a long-term trend of warming in the area.

Researchers pioneer continuous groundwater quality monitoring in Ontario
As a graduate student in Ontario, Jana Levison manually sampled groundwater wells in a hay field for a week straight. Now an assistant professor in the University of Guelph's School of Engineering, Levison is investigating how a new generation of water quality sensors can move the science forward while cutting the labor back. Levison said her doctoral work in a crystalline bedrock aquifer showed monthly variations in nitrate — a common groundwater contaminant often sourced to intensive agriculture — and daily variations in E. coli. Those short-term changes got her interested in watching groundwater in a more detailed manner. "Now we have the equipment that we can do that," Levison said. That equipment includes YSI's EXO multi-parameter sondes and Satlantic's SUNA nitrate sensor.

In Sierra Nevada streams, researchers on the lookout for drought-threatened fish
In the parched hills of the Sierra Nevada, researchers are surveying drought-weakened streams to see what effects long-term dryness is having on fish populations in the region. Their findings so far have been less than stellar, with sparse numbers of fish being counted. Still, as data collection is progressing, the researchers, who work out of the University of California, Davis’ Center for Watershed Sciences, are gathering insights that could aid in conservation efforts that are expected to grapple with coming climate changes. The purposes of the investigation are two-fold. “If we ever get rain again, we want to see how well these areas are recovering from drought,” said Rebecca Quinones, a postdoctoral researcher at the center and leader of the project.
