Restoration and rehabilitation of floodplain wetlands: a systematic, global review of restoration options and their outcomes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Floodplain wetlands are vitally important, highly productive, and biodiverse ecosystems. Species dependent on them are facing a range of threats including water extraction, habitat degradation, invasive species, and shifting climates.

Changes in food‐web pathways and ecosystem functions after sidearm re‐connection in a large river (Danube, Austria)

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction River regulation schemes generally led to changes in riverine assemblage composition and their trophic status, which often is reflected in a general loss or decrease of characteristic species and a concomitant increase or dominance of generalist species.

Morphometry and retention time as forcing functions to establishment and maintenance of aquatic macrophytes in a tropical reservoir

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Macrophytes may constitute an important resource for several chemical, physical and biological processes within aquatic ecosystems. This study considers that in tropical reservoirs with low retention time and with low values of shoreline development (DL),

Macroalgae and Bivalve Interactions: A Review of Trophic and Feeding Studies to Assess the Contribution of Macroalgal Detritus to Bivalves

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT There is growing interest in the co‐culture of macroalgae and filter‐feeding bivalves due to anticipated trophic benefits that may enhance the productivity of both organisms. Detritus from cultured macroalgae has the potential to supplement bivalve diets, yet few studies have directly examined this relationship in co‐culture systems.

Utilization of aquatic plants: a method to enhance the productivity of water in seasonal tanks in the Anuradhapura District [PDF]

Heavy infestations of aquatic plants in a water body cause considerable economic and ecological losses. Many seasonal tanks in the Anuradhapura District suffer from this problem and cannot be neglected in water resource development and management schemes.

Lessons learned from a co‐produced field experiment comparing aquatic vegetation removal methods in recreational waters

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We brought together academic researchers, environmental practitioners and local community members to implement a co‐produced experimental aquatic plant removal. We applied six key lessons learned based on existing co‐production research and added lessons learned from this case study. Overall, we found that building on existing relationships, appointing
