Spatial Patterns of Glacier‐Wetland Hydrological Connectivity in the Rapidly Deglaciating Peruvian Andes

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract High‐altitude wetlands are critical ecosystems that store water, regulate downstream flows, and sustain biodiversity. Their persistence is tightly linked to continuous water inputs from precipitation, groundwater, snow and glacier melt, making them highly vulnerable to climate‐driven shifts in mountain hydrology. Rapid glacier retreat, altered

Artificial ponds in Central Europe do not fall behind the natural ponds in terms of macrophyte diversity

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2018
We studied macrophyte composition and 24 environmental variables in 69 ponds of both natural and artificial origin in Slovakia. We tested differences in α and γ diversity and β similarity between natural and artificial ponds for helophytes, hydrophytes ...

Influência da turbidez da água do rio Tietê na ocorrência de plantas aquáticas Influence of Rio Tiete water turbidity on the occurrence of aquatic plants

open access: yesPlanta Daninha, 2005
As plantas aquáticas são estudadas como um efeito do desequilíbrio causado pela poluição e/ou alagamento dos rios. A quantidade excessiva de plantas, conseqüente desse desequilíbrio, dificulta a navegação e a produção de energia elétrica.

Floristic diversity in the small riverswith different morphology in the zoneaffected by backwater of a lowland reservoir

open access: yesТрансформация экосистем, 2021
A comparative study of the floristic diversity of small rivers is of great importance in the assessment of their environmental state, which allows assessing the degree of pollution of the environment. The floristic diversity of the estuaries of the small

Landscape heterogeneity is an important predictor of snake–human encounters in Eswatini

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Our results suggest that large‐scale land use changes, such as disintegration of natural habitat into smaller patches of habitat, are associated with a significant increased likelihood of encountering a snake. This has important implications for both snakebite prevention and landscape conservation in southern Africa as habitats change and populations ...

Aquatic and Littoral Successions in Various Post‐Mining Sites—Patterns and Possible Use in Ecological Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 3842-3852, 30 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...

Vascular aquatic plants of the Lower Tisa River (Serbia) – species composition and distribution pattern [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Annals of the Danube Delta Institute, 2013
The Lower Tisa is the 150 river km long section of the river through Serbia, where it runs into the Danube. The survey of vascular aquatic plants in the main channel of the Tisa River was undertaken during the time period 2004-2010.

Seasonal and Landscape Influences on Plant Diversity in Freshwater Ecosystems: Insights From eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Data acquisition, bioinformatic and data analysis workflow, and summary of primary results of the study. ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems provide critical services to human societies; however, the plant communities that sustain these ecosystems face increasing threats from human activities, highlighting the need for effective monitoring strategies. While

Landsystems of the tropical high Peruvian Andes: Glaciers, lakes, wetlands and water resources in the Cordillera Vilcanota

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
We outline the geomorphological relationships between glaciers, lakes and bofedal wetlands, and the way in which moraines, talus slopes and sandar interact with catchment hydrology in the tropical Andes of Peru. Bofedales are well developed within glacial limits, with glacial processes such as erosion and formation of moraines providing the poorly ...
