The Global Meteoric Water Line (GMWL) describes the global annual average relationship between hydrogen and oxygen isotope (oxygen-18 [18 O] and deuterium [2 H]) ratios in natural meteoric waters. The GMWL was first developed in 1961 by Harmon Craig , and has subsequently been widely used to track water masses in environmental geochemistry and ...
Four fish (Devil's Hole Pupfish, Amargosa Pupfish, Warm Springs Pupfish, and Ash Meadows Speckled Dace), one insect (Ash Meadows Naucorid), and one plant (Amargosa Niterwort) are currently listed as endangered species.

On September 19, 2022, a seiche reaching 4 feet (1.2 metres) occurred at Devils Hole at Death Valley National Park in the U.S. after a 7.6-magnitude earthquake hit western Mexico, about 1,500 miles (2,400 kilometres) away. Seiches were also observed in the cave after powerful earthquakes in 2012, 2018 and 2019.
Stiff diagrams can be used: 1) to help visualize ionically related waters from which a flow path can be determined, or; 2) if the flow path is known, to show how the ionic composition of a water body changes over space and/or time. Example of a Stiff diagram. A typical Stiff diagram is shown in the figure (right).
Up until the mid-1990s, NPS said experts “counted about 200-250 Devils Hole pupfish each spring.” For about two decades, however, their population averaged about 90 fish, hitting 35 fish in ...
