Defining stream riparian zones across multidimensional environmental gradients

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 1674-1697, November/December 2025.
Abstract Riparian zones are a critical terrestrial‐aquatic ecotone. They play important roles in ecosystems including (1) harboring biodiversity, (2) influencing light and carbon fluxes to aquatic food webs, (3) maintaining water quality and streamflow, (4) enhancing aquatic habitat, (5) influencing greenhouse gas production, and (6) sequestering ...

Linking Land Use, Seasonal Variation and Water Quality Through Dissolved Organic Matter Optical Properties in the Doce River Basin

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 18, Issue 7, October‐November 2025.
ABSTRACT Human activities such as agriculture, mining and urbanization have profoundly altered tropical river systems, yet conventional water quality indicators often fail to fully capture these impacts, especially in turbid waters. In the Doce River Basin, Southeast Brazil, the characterization of dissolved organic matter (DOM) through its optical ...
