Correlates of zooplankton beta diversity in tropical lake systems. [PDF]
The changes in species composition between habitat patches (beta diversity) are likely related to a number of factors, including environmental heterogeneity, connectivity, disturbance and productivity. Here, we used data from aquatic environments in five

Assessment and Optimization of Hydrological Connectivity for Effective Management of Water Resources in the Samian Watershed [PDF]
Water scarcity has become a critical issue in some regions. Accordingly, increasing attention has been given to the structural and functional connectivity of river networks as the primary source of surface water supply, while this can be a potential ...

Connecting fluvial levee deposition to flood-basin hydrology
Abstract Levees are commonly found along every kind of river system, yet there are no widely accepted models for where along the channel they form and what controls their shape. In this study, we investigated whether levee growth is driven by sediment transfer from the channel adjacent to the levee or by inundation dynamics in the ...

Relationships between land use and nitrogen and phosphorus in New Zealand lakes [PDF]
Developing policies to address lake eutrophication requires an understanding of the relative contribution of different nutrient sources and of how lake and catchment characteristics interact to mediate the source–receptor pathway.

Changes in hydrological connectivity not only interfere with the material transfer and energy flow processes within wetland ecosystems or between wetland ecosystems and other ecosystems but also pose potential risks to the ecosystem service functions of ...

Tracing hydrological connectivity
Understanding how different structural and functional elements of a catchment connect together to generate spatially and temporally variable fluxes of water, sediment and nutrients is fundamental for gaining a holistic comprehension of catchments’ hydrological behaviour.

Low flow controls on benthic and hyporheic macroinvertebrate assemblages during supra-seasonal drought [PDF]
Despite the widely accepted importance of the hyporheic zone as a habitat for stream macroinvertebrates during floods, few data exist regarding community composition and distribution during periods of low flow or drought in perennial streamsi ...
