Recovery and Degradation Drive Changes in the Dispersal Capacity of Stream Macroinvertebrate Communities

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2025.
Freshwater ecosystems across Europe are recovering unevenly despite restoration efforts, partly due to the limited ability of many species to disperse. Using a dataset of over 1300 time series, we found that improved ecological quality often leads to gains in macroinvertebrate species with strong dispersal capacities, while degrading sites lose these ...
