#New evidence suggests giant ocean on Mars CALTECH (US) esearchers have found signs of an ancient delta on Mars where a river might have emptied once into a vast ocean.
These inverted channels form when coarse materials like large gravel and cobbles are carried along rivers
After the river dries up, the finer materialuch as smaller grains of clay, silt, and sandround the river erodes away, leaving behind the coarser stuff.
This remaining sediment appears as today ridge-like features, tracing the former river system. When looked at from above, the inverted channels appear to fan out
a configuration that suggests one of three possible origins: the channels could have once been a drainage system in
and converged to form a larger river; the water could have flowed in the other direction,
which a single river channel branches into multiple smaller streams and creeks; or the channels are actually part of a delta,
piecing together the history of how sediments were deposited along these ancient rivers and streams. The team was able to determine the slopes of the channels back

#Launch of new sensor device on Hudson river set to wire river for cleaner water In the race to find solutions to critical water issues the launch of a new cost-effective water quality sensor
device by Beacon Institute for Rivers and Estuaries Clarkson University is the first step in overcoming hurdles of historically prohibitive costs for long-term water resource monitoring.
The installation of the Institute's newest generation of River and Estuary Observatory Network (REON II) sensor arrays signifies the passing of the baton from the science lab to the river as they run ahead complementing government capacity to invest in wiring the river for cleaner water.
The REON II device or Sonde deployed October 6 on the banks of the Hudson river in New Hamburg N y. is providing real-time data called for by scientists to better understand the complex relationship between humans the built environment and our fragile waterways.
It is one of 37 sensor stations currently in place in the Hudson and St lawrence river watersheds making REON one of the world's most robust resources of real-time data.
#Designing rivers: Environmental flows for ecosystem services in rivers natural and novel Last spring, the Colorado river reached its delta for the first time in 16 years,

and novel riverine ecosystems in a changing world There are two primary ways to achieve"environmental flows"of water necessary to sustain river ecosystems,
or reverse alterations to the natural flow of the river. For rivers like the Colorado, already much altered and bearing heavy demands from many different user groups, a"designer"approach is more practical than attempting to return the river closer to its natural,
pre-development state, say the authors. Designers work to create a functional ecosystem or support ecosystem services under current conditions,

Rebirth of the Elwha River For rivers with fewer economic and social demands, restoration guided by historical records of the natural dynamics of the river can be an effective restoration strategy
river systems need to fluctuate in natural rhythms of volume, velocity, and timing (to put it very simplistically).
At the end of the twentieth century, Washington state decided that the water of the Elwha River would be most valuable flowing freely through Olympic national park to the Pacific at the Strait of Juan de Fuca, supporting salmon trout, clams, and tourism.
Habitat and eroded coastline are recovering at an astonishing pace only one year after the demolition of two dams freed the river,
as Noreen Parks reports for her news story"Rebirth of the Elwha River"in ESA Frontier's October Dispatches.
Rivers of the Anthropocene? Outside protected wilderness, the Elwha's story may be more of an anomaly than a blueprint for future river restoration projects.
As nonnative species, land development, and climate change remodel river ecosystems, it is no longer easy to define what is"natural"for river systems.
But heavily used, regulated, and altered rivers have ecological value.""The future of freshwater biodiversity is linked inextricably to land

which he contemplates whether rivers have changed so much that we need to rethink some of our conceptions about restoration."
"We are rapidly entering an era where restoration interventions will be guided less by statistical deviations from historical reference conditions and more by"process-based"understanding of organism-environment relationships,

Scientists at first expected the groundwater to flush into the Colorado river and carry the dissolved uranium with it,
if it's the Colorado river that we're"killing"?"Pretty much every state west of the Rockies has been facing a water shortage of one kind or another in recent years.
But the Colorado river basinhich provides critical water supplies for seven states including Californias the victim of a slower-burning catastrophe entering its 16th year.
Wyoming, Colorado, New mexico, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and California all share water from the Colorado river, a hugely important water resource that sustains 40 million people in those states, supports 15 percent of the nation's food supply,
and helped raise national awareness of the longer-term shortages that are affecting the entire Colorado river basin.
Arcane laws actually encourage farmers to take even more water from the Colorado river and from California's rivers than they actually need,
and federal subsidies encourage farmers to plant some of the crops that use the most water.
But in both California and the larger Colorado river basin mismanagement of the water supply has left the West more vulnerable to both short and long-term changes in climate.
When officials divvied up rights to Colorado river water nearly a century ago, it happened to be a wetter period than usual.
The states vastly overestimated the river's annual flow. Today, the river's reserves are especially low
and states are stillclaiming the same amount of water from the Colorado river that they always have hich is 1. 4 trillion gallons a year more than the river actually produces.
This sort of oversubscription is similar in California, where historic water rights give many farms first rights to California's streams and rivers,
and haven't been adjusted as the state's population has increased and its cities have grown. Waiton't we all have equal water rights?
Farming and agriculture use more than 70 percent of the water that flows from the Colorado river to the seven river basin states.
though the plant (which generates more climate-warming gases than almost any other plant in the nation) will continue pumping Colorado river water to Arizona.
Will California cutbacks alleviate the larger Colorado river problem? California uses almost one-third of the entire Colorado river flow,
having a larger share than any other Colorado river basin state. California gets 16 percent of its surface waterater that comes from snowpack, streams and riversrom the Colorado river via two huge aqueducts.
The California Aqueduct runs beneath mountains into Riverside County and eventually toward Los angeles, providing a substantial supply for both L a. and San diego. The All-American Canal moves water along the tail-end of the Colorado river near the Mexican border, nourishing one of the state's most valuable agriculture areas,
Imperial County, where a large proportion of the nation's winter fruits and vegetables are grown. Of the seven basin states, California holds the most senior legal rights to the Colorado,
which entitle it to keep drawing water even as Lake Mead runs dry and the rest of the Colorado river states suffer through shortages.
That means in the short term, not much that California does will change the situation on the Colorado,
unless it were to voluntarily surrender more of its entitlement to the river. But should Colorado river shortages worsen to the point that the states ever re-negotiate that division of water
a reduction of California's Colorado river water rights could have a brutal impact on California's remaining supplies.
Officials in California, like every other state in the region, are now facing a"new normal,
it could save as much water as flows through the Colorado river in an entire year. Regardless
consumers far away from the Colorado river basin might feel the pinch. Finally, California and the rest of the Colorado river basin amount to the world's seventh largest economy,
and contribute significantly to the country's GDP. When California struggles economically the nation is close behind.
