Dam removals are increasing globally, yet ecological outcomes vary widely because biological recovery depends on post‐removal connectivity and access to source populations. We evaluated how multiple dam removals and remaining fragmentation influenced fish assemblage recovery in the Cuyahoga River (OH, United States), a historically polluted Great Lakes

Abstract Introduction Coastal wetlands, despite their importance in providing ecosystem services like carbon sequestration, water quality improvement, and coastal protection, have suffered extensive degradation and loss in the past two centuries. Hydrological restoration of these degraded ecosystems presents an emerging opportunity for mitigating and ...

Abstract Introduction Novel ecosystems, where environmental conditions have been fundamentally altered from a historic norm, require nontraditional approaches to restoration. Suisun Marsh, located within California's San Francisco Estuary (SFE), is a novel, brackish water wetland complex, where managers have begun restoring tidal connectivity to ...

Abstract Introduction Floodplain wetlands are vitally important, highly productive, and biodiverse ecosystems. Species dependent on them are facing a range of threats including water extraction, habitat degradation, invasive species, and shifting climates.

Abstract Introduction Restoration ecology relies on interactions between scientists and managers, yet these interactions are shaped by broader academic, social, and political contexts that influence how scientific knowledge is produced and mobilized. Objective This article aims to examine how scientific knowledge is produced within a long‐term river ...

Reflooding the coupled human and natural system of the Waza-Logone Floodplain, Cameroon
The rewilding framework is used to guide the restoration of ecological processes in natural systems, but the framework can also be used in the restoration of social and ecological processes in coupled human and natural systems.

Abstract Introduction River regulation schemes generally led to changes in riverine assemblage composition and their trophic status, which often is reflected in a general loss or decrease of characteristic species and a concomitant increase or dominance of generalist species.

Abstract Introduction Freshwater ecosystem restoration must be rapidly scaled up to address climate change and biodiversity loss, as reflected in the 2024 European Union (EU) Nature Restoration Regulation. Achieving national and international restoration targets is constrained by a persistent funding gap.

No need to seed: restoring species‐rich grassland on former arable fields by natural regeneration
Abstract Introduction Over the last century, agricultural intensification has caused substantial losses of semi‐natural species‐rich grasslands. One means of restoring grassland habitat is to abandon farmed land, followed by mowing and/or grazing of the established vegetation to facilitate meadow diversification. Objectives This study investigated post‐
