Urban‐driven homogenization of aquatic subsidy size structure cascades to riparian predator communities

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
The export of emergent aquatic insects is a critical energy subsidy for terrestrial food webs. While urbanization is known to alter stream communities, its effects on the size structure of these insect subsidies and the subsequent consequences for riparian predators remain poorly understood.

Impacts of Land Use and Flood Regime on Zooplankton Egg Banks in a Large River Floodplain

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Zooplankton egg banks are crucial in rebuilding zooplankton populations in temporary water bodies when favourable conditions return after dry periods. However, their abundance, viability, and hatching success depend on many factors, with changes in land use and flooding regimes being potentially crucial drivers.

The Aggregation of Fish in the Metalimnion Constrains Zooplankton Diel Vertical Migration

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The role of fish predation in zooplankton diel vertical migration (DVM) is well established, where zooplankton move to deep waters during the day—to hide from visual predators in surface layers—and return to the epilimnion at night (i.e., ‘normal’ DVM), to feed on phytoplankton.

Modélisation de la charge annuelle en azote et phosphore par analyse spatiale d'informations topographiques et d'occupation des sols - Cas d'un petit bassin versant méditerranéen

open access: yesSciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2000
Préserver les eaux de surface vis-à-vis de l'eutrophisation implique l'estimation des rejets de nutriments (azote et phosphore) et le contrôle de ces rejets à l'échelle du bassin versant.

Beyond the Metrics: Context‐Aware Calibration for Better Drain Flow Modelling

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 2, Page 659-668, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Robust hydrological and water quality modelling is essential for advancing the understanding and management of engineered agricultural subsurface drainage systems. Achieving credible model output hinges on calibration strategies that are both rigorous and context sensitive. At the field scale, accurately capturing the dynamics of nutrient load

A Comparative Study on the Irrigation Suitability of Kerala's Rivers Using Fuzzy AHP and Conventional Methods

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 2, Page 815-839, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Food security in Kerala depends on effective irrigation, but poor‐quality irrigation water poses threats such as salinity, sodicity and reduced soil productivity. Although past assessments have been localised, this study presents the first comprehensive, statewide evaluation of irrigation water suitability across 44 major rivers in Kerala.

Taxonomy and Functional Traits Modulate the Environmental Niche Dimensions of Crustacean Zooplankton Communities in Submerged Aquatic Vegetation Beds

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Community ecologists now recognise the importance of simultaneously integrating spatial and environmental processes, together with functional traits and phylogeny to provide a more complete understanding of community responses to environmental conditions.

Scoping Review of Paddy Field Dam Studies in Japan

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 1, Page 198-216, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Paddy field dams are one of the nature‐based solutions provided by farmers in Japan for mitigating flood damage. This scoping review analysed 38 papers in the Web of Science Core Collection and J‐STAGE obtained by searching for keywords associated with paddy field dams.
