Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Pilliga Ghosts: The Novel Fungi of the Rivers, Creeks, Lakes, and Dams of the Narrabri Region, Australia

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Freshwater systems of the semi‐arid Narrabri region, Australia, are hotspots of novel fungal and eukaryote diversity, dominated by zoosporic fungi and unclassified lineages. ITS‑based DNA and water chemistry analyses across various water bodies revealed strong seasonal patterns, a scarcity of aquatic hyphomycetes that may reflect environmental ...

Controls on mixing‐dependent denitrification in hyporheic zones induced by riverbed dunes: A steady state modeling study

Water Resources Research, 2014
The hyporheic zone is known to attenuate contaminants originating from surface water, yet the ability of the hyporheic zone to attenuate contaminants in upwelling groundwater plumes as they exit to surface water is less understood.

Early stages of leaf decomposition are mediated by aquatic fungi in the hyporheic zone of woodland streams [PDF]

, 2010
1. Leaf litter constitutes the major source of organic matter and energy in woodland stream ecosystems. A substantial part of leaf litter entering running waters may be buried in the streambed as a consequence of flooding and sediment movement.

Nutrient cycling in bedform induced hyporheic zones

Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2012
Abstract The hyporheic zone is an ecotone connecting the stream and groundwater ecosystem that plays a significant role for stream biogeochemistry. Water exchange across the stream-sediment interface and biogeochemical reactions in the streambed concur to affect subsurface solute concentrations and eventually nutrient cycling in the fluvial corridor.

Network Connectivity and Local Hydrology Drive DOM Composition in a Nonperennial Stream

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Nonperennial streams are dynamic sites of biogeochemical processing, yet much remains to be learned about how hydrologic connectivity at different spatial and temporal scales impacts the composition of dissolved organic matter (DOM). We characterized spatial and temporal patterns of DOM composition in a nonperennial prairie stream network ...

Contribution des zones d'échanges entre eau de surface et eau souterraine à la biodiversité des hydrosystèmes : exemple d'une rivière méditerranéenne, la Cèze

Physio-Géo, 2019
In a close future, Mediterranean rivers will support strong disturbances due to climate changes, with inexorable consequences for their fauna. The invertebrate biodiversity of the Cèze River (South of France) was studied in a karstic area.

Biodiversity, community structure and function of biofilms in stream ecosystems [PDF]

, 2015
Multi-species, surface-attached biofilms often dominate microbial life in streams and rivers, where they contribute substantially to biogeochemical processes.

In‐Lake GHG Production Constrained by Lake DOM Mass Balance in a Boreal Catchment

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The processing of organic carbon in surface waters represents a critical component of the carbon (C) cycle in boreal landscapes and is closely linked to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Utilizing a unique data set with dense monitoring of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved CO2, and CH4 at

Spatial Variability in Trace Organic Compound Reactivity During Urban River Infiltration Into an Alluvial Aquifer

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Trace organic compounds (TrOCs) in lotic systems pose risks for ecosystem and human health. TrOCs can enter groundwater along losing river sections, yet little is known about the spatial extent of infiltration zones and the biogeochemical factors controlling the spatial variability of TrOC reactivity and removal, particularly along river‐to ...
