A test of the abundant‐center hypothesis for stream fishes
Ecography, EarlyView.The abundant‐center hypothesis (ACH) provides a conceptual model for predicting range‐wide distributions of species abundance, suggesting that abundance peaks in the center of the geographic range and declines towards range edges. Empirical studies testing the ACH and its subsequent derivations predominantly occurred in terrestrial systems and reported

Drivers of plant community composition and diversity in low Arctic western Greenland
Ecography, EarlyView.The Arctic experiences rapid climate change, but our ability to predict how this will influence plant communities is hampered by a lack of data on the extent to which different species are associated with particular environmental conditions, how these conditions are interlinked, and how they will change in coming years.

River archaeology – a new tool for historical hydrology [PDF]
, 2008 River archaeology is consisting of underwater research of the rivers themselves, and also the archaeology of the valleys/floodplains with special interest in humanenvironmental interactions (reconstructing space, environment, economy and society on ...

Climatic resilience after extreme drought in Mediterranean shrubland plant communities
Ecography, EarlyView.Extreme climatic events are increasing with climate change, producing changes in communities' climatic characterization. So, mismatches (climatic disequilibrium, CD) between climatic conditions inferred from species' requirements (community inferred climate, CIC) and macroclimate may undergo changes with extreme climatic events.

Environmental changes in a Mediterranean river: implications for the fish assemblage [PDF]
, 2016 This study examined the impacts of climate change on hydrology and fish population dynamics in a river in central Spain. The objectives were to: (i) contextualise long-term trends in the hydrology (1943–2012) and climate (1985–2011) of the study area ...

Arctic terrestrial hydrology: A synthesis of processes, regional effects, and research challenges
, 2016 Terrestrial hydrology is central to the Arctic system and its freshwater circulation. Water transport and water constituents vary, however, across a very diverse geography. In this paper, which is a component of the Arctic Freshwater Synthesis, we review

Ecography, EarlyView.Pelagic‐feeding seabirds deliver nutrient subsidies that enhance the productivity, biodiversity, and resilience of terrestrial and marine ecosystems, particularly in nutrient‐poor tropical environments. However, the biogeophysical variables governing the fluxes of these nutrients within and among interconnected ecosystems remain poorly understood.

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Novelty is a requirement demanded from scholars by reviewers holding the keys to publication as well as by funding bodies allocating project funds and thus sometimes enabling the possibility of an academic career. In fields such as water governance research, at the intersection of research and practice, an additional pressure comes from ...
