Application of a Presumptive Standards Approach to Evaluate Environmental Flows in a Highly Regulated River Basin

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

The Role of Sediment Supply on Fish Habitat Dynamics of a Morphologically Active River Widening

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Restoration measures, such as river widening, aim to reactivate key morphodynamic processes, which are critical drivers of fluvial habitat dynamics. While some evidence supports the important role of sediment supply on river widening's morphology, its link to fish habitat availability and dynamics remains unclear.

Effects of Glyphosate on the Planktonic Microbiota: An Experimental Approach

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, including in Brazil, and its dispersion through habitats and surface waters can impact entire aquatic ecosystems. However, experimental studies evaluating the effects of pesticides on whole planktonic communities, considering attributes such as richness, density and composition—

Nutrient enrichment destabilizes aquatic food webs through synchronization within and across trophic levels

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nutrient enrichment destabilizes ecosystems globally, but the mechanistic pathways underlying this effect in multi‐trophic communities remain unclear. To address this knowledge gap, we applied biodiversity–stability theory to multi‐trophic communities by partitioning ...

Poincaré wave-induced mixing in a large lake

A 10,000-km2 hypoxic ‘dead zone’ forms, during most years, in the central basin of Lake Erie. To investigate the processes driving the hypoxia, we conducted a 2-yr field campaign where the mixing in the lake interior during the stratification period was ...

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

An experimental examination of dispersal decisions made by flight‐capable heteropteran insects in urban stormwater pond conditions

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Salty conditions in urban stormwater ponds can influence dispersal timing in species‐specific ways for actively dispersing aquatic heteropteran insects. Assaying multiple aspects of dispersal propensity, Hesperocorixa obliqua emigrated earlier in stormwater pond conditions while overall probabilities remained unchanged; Notonecta undulata emigration ...
