Estimating widespread beaver dam loss: Habitat decline and surface storage loss at a regional scale
Ecosphere, 2022 The loss of beaver populations has commonly been accompanied by the failure of beaver dams, leading to stream incision, water table lowering, and the eventual transition from a beaver meadow to a drier riparian corridor.

A global review of beaver dam impacts: Stream conservation implications across biomes
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Beaver are recolonizing previously occupied regions, expanding into new territories, and increasingly being introduced and protected for stream conservation and restoration across numerous biomes.

Evaluation of non-invasive hair snares for North American beavers (Castor canadensis): placement, efficiency, and beaver’s behavioral response [PDF]
PeerJAlthough the commercial demand for North American beaver (Castor canadensis) hair shaped much of the socio-ecological landscape of North America, use of beaver hair in wildlife research has focused on the Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) and collection ...

Population of Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) in Europe
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020 The Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) is an intensely expansionary species. Species reintroductions, which were conducted in various parts of Europe, as well as the rate of natural increase have resulted in the growth of the number of individuals.

Rapid surface-water volume estimations in beaver ponds [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017 Beaver ponds are surface-water features that are transient through space and time. Such qualities complicate the inclusion of beaver ponds in local and regional water balances, and in hydrological models, as reliable estimates of surface-water storage ...

Do beaver ponds increase methane emissions along Arctic tundra streams?
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Beaver engineering in the Arctic tundra induces hydrologic and geomorphic changes that are favorable to methane (CH _4 ) production. Beaver-mediated methane emissions are driven by inundation of existing vegetation, conversion from lotic to lentic ...

Impact of European Beaver (Castor fiber L.) on Vegetation Diversity in Protected Area River Valleys
Conservation, 2022 The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of European beaver (Castor fiber L.) on vegetation diversity and the expansion of non-native plant species in areas surrounding watercourses in Polesie National Park, Poland.

Alteration of stream temperature by natural and artificial beaver dams. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Beaver are an integral component of hydrologic, geomorphic, and biotic processes within North American stream systems, and their propensity to build dams alters stream and riparian structure and function to the benefit of many aquatic and terrestrial ...
