Modeling nature-based restoration potential across aquatic-terrestrial boundaries. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Today, few watersheds remain untouched by global change processes arising from climate warming, impoundments, channelization, water extraction, pollution, and urbanization. The need for restoration has resulted in a myriad of interventions, generally performed at small scales, which have limited measurable impact in restoring biodiversity and

Amphibian loss alters periphyton structure and invertebrate growth in montane streams

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 91, Issue 11, Page 2329-2337, November 2022., 2022
This paper demonstrates that amphibian loss increases periphyton biomass, causes shifts in algal assemblages and reduces invertebrate growth. It highlights the importance of protecting amphibians in order to maintain normal stream ecosystem functioning, especially in nonforested streams where periphyton in the main energy resource.
