Electrified rhythms: How hydropower infrastructure transforms hydrosocial relations of riverine communities in the Lower Sogamoso River, Colombia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 782-796, March 2026.
Abstract Hydropower dams regulate water flows for millions of downstream inhabitants worldwide, altering water availability. Under a changing climate, flow control is often framed technically and politically as being essential for reducing drought and flood risks. However, it can also disrupt ecological flows, impact livelihoods and erode environmental

Drought reduces the value of both artificial and natural wetlands for gulls breeding in the Mediterranean region

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
The importance of artificial wetlands for waterbird conservation can be easily overestimated from count data alone. The value of extensive fish ponds as a breeding habitat depends on maintaining the availability of natural marshes as a foraging habitat. This requires reducing impacts from groundwater extraction. Given recent abandonment of aquaculture,
