We investigated short‐term (1–3 years) pond biodiversity responses to restoration at a variety of management intensities. Ponds undergoing the most intense intervention (major woody vegetation and sediment removal) showed the strongest biodiversity uplift. This is likely in part due to a seedbank response and highlights the value of intense restoration

Flow Resistance due to Aquatic Vegetation in Streams and Flumes
ABSTRACT Although several studies regarding flow resistance due to aquatic vegetation for small‐ and full‐scale are available, the scaling of small‐scale results to full‐scale conditions still needs to be investigated. In this paper, a theoretical flow resistance equation for open channels was tested using literature measurements performed for full ...

Spermatophyta Molecular Clock: Time Drift and Recent Acceleration
Exponential increase in the base substitution rate in recent geologic time. ABSTRACT Angiospermae radiation is widely recognized as a mid‐Cretaceous event, but the adaptive radiation of Asarum and Viola as spring ephemerals also occurred during the Quaternary. To better understand the evolution of Angiospermae through geological time, a robust and well‐

Complex interactions between epiphytic fauna and microbial food webs in periphyton are vital to the ecosystem ecology of shallow lakes. However, little is known about how different types of macrophyte dominated lakes may influence microbial and metazoan ...

New Approaches to Assess Food Web Stability in Aquatic Ecosystems: A Case Study on Baiyangdian Lake
A method for calculating the interaction strength of a phytoplankton‐based and a detritus food web. A geometric mean ratio of predator‐to‐prey biomass BCBPt$$ {\left(\frac{B_C}{B_P}\right)}_t $$ as an alternative indicator for food web stability. The changes in the stability of the BYD Lake from the 1950s to the 2010s indicate that two steady‐state ...

Placing Nothophylica piloburmensis from Cretaceous amber into the angiosperm phylogeny
Abstract Recently, we redescribed an amber inclusion from mid‐Cretaceous Kachin amber of Myanmar, previously assigned to the extant genus Phylica in Rhamnaceae (core eudicots), and placed it in a new fossil‐genus, Nothophylica. Based on our reconstructions, we identified new floral features and instead suggested affinities within magnoliids, especially

This study documents the rare case of Charca de Suárez in southern Spain, where urban‐designated land was successfully reclassified and restored as a protected wetland. Based on 2 years of stakeholder input, we developed a practical toolkit combining ecological restoration, infrastructure, biodiversity monitoring and community engagement.
