ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Multidecadal drought impacts on the Lower Colorado Basin with implications for future management
Overallocation of Colorado River water and groundwater alongside multidecadal drought underscore the need to understand water-resource dynamics. Here we assess water-storage variations using satellites, regional modeling, and monitoring to inform future ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
