The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) on Tuesday released a new interactive mapping tool that shows final sample results from soil and water testing conducted by DEP in the wake of the Feb. 3 East Palestine train derailment. Pennsylvanians can use this tool to review sampling results in the vicinity of the derailment. The ...

The economic benefit of water quality improvements depends on where those improvements occur. But which water quality changes do New England residents value the most, and where would they prefer these changes to occur across large river and stream networks? Robert J. Johnston, director of the George Perkins Marsh Institute and professor of economics, and ...

Scientists routinely rely on data-intensive analysis and visualization of satellite observations to track Earth’s ever-changing surface. A new project will make it possible for anyone with an internet connection to begin to answer these questions and more about changes to our dynamic planet. The OPERA (Observational Products for End-Users from Remote Sensing Analysis) project is ...

Small ponds emit a surprisingly large amount of methane compared with larger water bodies. Because ponds are so tiny, they have been difficult to track, and their contributions to terrestrial greenhouse gas emissions are largely unaccounted for. In a new study, Mullen et al. used deep learning to construct a fine-grained map of ponds in ...

On 11 September 2022, a diamond mine waste storage facility, known as a tailings dam, failed in the town of Jagersfontein in the Free State province of South Africa. In the failure, one person was killed and multiple homes destroyed. Tailings are the finely ground leftovers that remain after valuable metals are removed from rock ...

Die letzten fünf Jahre in Deutschland waren von massiven Sommerdürren geprägt. Sehr viel Wasser ging verloren. Nur: Wie hoch die Verluste genau waren und ob sich daraus ein Trend für die Zukunft ableiten lässt, sind nach wie vor offene Fragen. Ein Team des Deutschen GeoForschungsZentrums (GFZ) hat nun mit Kolleg:innen die Jahre 2002-2022 genauer untersucht. ...

The international Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission—led by NASA and the Centre National d’Études Spatiales (CNES)—has sent back some of its first glimpses of water on the planet’s surface, showing ocean currents like the Gulf Stream in unprecedented detail. The spatial resolution of SWOT ocean measurements is 10 times greater than the composite ...

The South Florida Water Management District oversees water resources for more than 9 million residents, from Orlando to the Florida Keys. That means monitoring water quality, especially in Lake Okeechobee, the largest freshwater lake in the state and the 10th largest lake in the country. That’s no small task. In partnership with Google Public Sector, ...

An interactive map has been created by South West Water showing sewage releases around the coast.

At the feet of mountain glaciers, melting ice forms pools of water that can be trapped behind moraines. And with warming temperatures, these pools are surging in both size and number. In Alaska and northwestern Canada, 183 new lakes appeared between 1984 and 2019, covering 483 square kilometers (190 square miles). New research showed that ...
