Success criteria comparison of eight implemented projects to improve the planning, design, and construction of floodplain wetlands.
Prior to mass deforestation of uplands and drainage efforts in lowlands, floodplain wetlands were abundant in river valleys. Deforestation of steep slopes and the associated accumulation of alluvial sediment in valley bottoms have left floodplains much drier and largely disconnected from their…

Accessible ethics and legal advice for wastewater surveillance: The WWS ethics adviser app.
Wastewater surveillance (WWS) has a long history in infectious disease management, from the detection of Salmonella Paratyphi B in sewers by Moore in 1948, to its role in global poliovirus eradication and more recently the deployment of WWS to track SARS-CoV-2. Whilst current interest has focused…

Environmental pathogen hazards reveal need for improved sanitation infrastructure in Alabama's Black Belt
Many rural communities in Alabama’s Black Belt region lack adequate sanitation, resulting in wastewater discharges that may pose risks to residents. To understand the scope of the problem in one community, we conducted three cross-sectional surveys in a small town with limited sanitation…

Sanitation access and satisfaction in northern Haiti: Insights from a quasi-census survey
Between 2015 and 2024, global open defecation declined, yet fragile contexts continue to lag behind this trend. In Haiti, urban access to safe sanitation fell from 34% to 32%, with dense housing and frequent flooding limiting the potential of conventional solutions like sewers, septic tanks, and…

Hydrogeology, groundwater salinity distributions, and assessment of the effect of oil-production activities on groundwater in the Midway Valley area, western Kern County, San Joaquin Valley, California
This study seeks to determine the effects of oil field produced water disposal operations and well mechanical integrity issues on groundwater quality in oil fields in the southwest San Joaquin Valley, California. Whereas previous studies used groundwater wells to study shallow aquifers outside the…

Quantifying lead (Pb) leaching from galvanized handpump spouts, leaded brass taps, and stainless-steel alternatives using the NSF 61 test protocol: Implications for safe rural water supply
Lead (Pb) is a neurotoxin with no known safe level of exposure. Widespread lead contamination has been reported in rural groundwater-supplied drinking water systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), primarily arising from the corrosion of lead-containing plumbing materials such as…

Flows of justice? Situating environmental justice in urban river restoration
The environmental justice (EJ) movement in the United States has long focused on water quality due to the threats that polluted surface and groundwaters pose to human health in historically marginalized communities. Recently, several advocacy groups, state agencies, and community-based…

Ancestral sociohydrology: Transforming water research by learning from multiple ways of knowing, relating to, and governing water
The contemporary scientific concept of the hydrological cycle emerged within a positivist paradigm, historically serving the interests of state-led development and colonial expansion. This legacy positioned water primarily as a resource to be measured, extracted, and controlled – an ontology that…

Persistence and UV inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater: Experimental characterization of time, temperature, and aerosolization effects
The COVID-19 pandemic emphasized the importance of wastewater (WW) surveillance to monitor the spread of pathogens, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). While SARS-CoV-2 is primarily transmitted through respiratory droplets/aerosols, some evidence suggests the…

Four water insecurity concerns about datacenters driving the AI revolution
Datacenters are powering the Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution. However, their water insecurity risks remain neglected. Limited research on the matter quantifies water demand at national or watershed-scales and estimates water use associated with training and using AI models. Research fails…

Macroeconomic modeling of water resources: Conceptual and methodological challenges in CGE frameworks
Water scarcity is increasingly recognized as a systemic economic constraint, with impacts that extend far beyond directly water-using sectors. Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models constitute a powerful tool for capturing the indirect and structural effects of water scarcity across…

Achieving sub-part per trillion trace level PFAS quantification in drinking water using an optimized fast flow solid-phase extraction and UPLC-MS/MS method
Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are not efficiently degraded and hence cycle through the environment, persist for a very long time, accumulate in living organisms, and cause potential health and ecological risks. PFAS monitoring in the drinking water relies on solid phase extraction…

Impact of natural lagooning wastewater treatment on antibiotic-resistant bacteria in Morocco
Aquatic environments under anthropogenic pressure serve as critical hotspots for the rapid development of microbial populations, including the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB). This study evaluates the efficiency of natural lagooning wastewater treatment systems at two sites in Settat…
