Exploring Uncharted Waters: The Role of Artificial Aquatic Ecosystems in Freshwater Science
The world's farms and cities house an abundance of human‐made waters, including farm dams, stormwater ponds, constructed wetlands, and ditches: known collectively as “artificial aquatic ecosystems.” In this viewpoint we challenge the entrenched idea that human‐made waters have limited ecological value, discuss the disconnect between the functioning of ...

ABSTRACT This study presents a multi‐method analysis framework that combines trend analysis, dry period persistence and machine learning‐based projections to comprehensively assess drought risk in the Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP) Region. The study first identified trends for the 2000–2024 period using the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI ...

Vegetation and Topographic Controls on Post‐Fire Snowpack: Evidence From the 2021 Caldor Fire
ABSTRACT The increase in wildland fires in recent decades due to long‐term fire suppression policies and increasingly favourable climate factors has also increased the elevation range of wildland fires. In the mountainous western United States, this has led to an increasing influence of fire on landscape‐level vegetation patterns in snow‐dominated ...

ABSTRACT Grassland response to changes in water availability is closely tied to the traits of the plant community. Plants can adopt either moderate and efficient (conservative) or rapid and demanding (acquisitive) resource use strategies. These strategies combined with the plant interactions with microbes, such as arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF ...

Upland Afforestation Desiccates Downslope Wetlands on Sandy Soil
ABSTRACT Afforestation of formerly open, water‐limited habitats is a globally widespread form of land conversion, driven by the need for timber and non‐timber forest products, and capturing atmospheric carbon. However, increased tree cover can adversely affect hydrological cycles by increasing evapotranspiration and reducing downslope water yield ...
