ABSTRACT Temperate lake ecosystems undergo seasonal shifts that disproportionately alter the availability of suitable habitat for fishes of different thermal guilds. While many studies have investigated fish habitat use patterns, few have estimated the degree to which fish species overlap in space across seasons from a three‐dimensional perspective ...

Phosphorus (P) cycling at the sediment-water interface is a critical driver of eutrophication, yet the roles of aquatic macrophytes of different life forms and their associated rhizosphere microbial communities remain poorly understood.

ABSTRACT In temporary waterbodies such as ponds, pools and small lakes, the diversity of smaller invertebrates, such as rotifers, remains understudied, despite their ecological importance as prey and decomposers of organic matter. Especially in regions such as Israel, where natural lakes are scarce, temporary waterbodies become even more important as ...

Dam-induced disruption of hydrochory and macrophyte recovery in the Brisbane River post-flood
Extreme flood events can scour riverbeds and significantly reduce submerged aquatic macrophyte extent in river systems. In regulated systems, large dams disrupt longitudinal connectivity and may constrain post-flood recovery by limiting hydrochorous ...

ABSTRACT The hydrology and drainage history of freshwater marshes influence their soil properties and plant communities, which in turn affect microbial biomass and extracellular enzyme activities that regulate the biogeochemistry and functioning of the marsh. However, field reports examining the spatial differences and controls of microbial biomass and

ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly threatened by human activities and climate change, emphasizing the need for effective habitat restoration supported by long‐term monitoring. We examined fish species responses to instream restoration in six boreal streams in northern Finland over a 24‐year period (1999–2022) using a Before–After–Control ...

Low breeding propensity in a declining Arctic‐breeding swan revealed by telemetry data
Many migratory bird populations are declining in the face of habitat degradation and climate change, making it important to identify which stages of their annual cycle are most affected in order to guide conservation measures. The Bewick's Swan Cygnus columbianus bewickii, an Arctic‐breeding waterfowl species, has suffered a dramatic population decline

Abstract Kenya's aquaculture sector is at a pivotal stage, transitioning from a historical reliance on Nile tilapia and African catfish toward a more diversified production portfolio that integrates indigenous and emerging freshwater and marine species. This shift is increasingly recognized as essential to enhance climate resilience, food security, and

Biofloc‐based aquaculture: From monoculture to integrated systems
Abstract The demand for high‐quality protein has been growing in recent years, led by population growth. The development of aquaculture has been considered one of the solutions to ensure food security worldwide. New farming technologies have been promoted to increase productivity and, at the same time, minimize environmental impacts.

Competition between free-floating and submerged macrophytes in a future of climate change [PDF]
This research was about the asymmetric competition between free-floating and submerged macrophytes in shallow freshwater ecosystems. I studied the effect of climate change on the dominance of free-floating macrophytes in temperate regions. The research
