Impacts of stream riparian buffer land use on water temperature and food availability for fish
Restoration of degraded freshwater ecosystems has gained considerable attention in the USA over the past decades. However, most projects focus almost entirely on the restoration of physical habitat or specific water quality parameters, while ignoring ...

ABSTRACT One of the largest wetlands on Earth, the Brazilian Pantanal contains roughly 10 000 natural lakes, about 1000 of which are hypersaline. In these environmentally stressful settings, animal life struggles to survive, while cyanobacteria form extensive mats.

Trophic Redundancy and the Hidden Dietary Overlap Between Native and Invasive Stream Fishes
ABSTRACT Biological invasions introduce non‐native species into natural ecosystems, often reshaping localcommunities and altering trophic interactions. In freshwater environments, such invasions can intensify resource use and threaten native fish diversity.

Low‐Head Dam Removal Restores Biofilm Structure but Not Function in a Temperate Stream
ABSTRACT Barrier removal is a common stream restoration practice aimed at restoring longitudinal connectivity, yet its effects on biofilm structure and function, through alteration of near‐bed hydrodynamics, remain unclear. Using a space‐for‐time substitution approach, we assessed how the presence and removal of a low‐head dam affect biofilm structure ...

Do Karst Rivers “deserve” their own biotic index? A ten years study on macrozoobenthos in Croatia [PDF]
In this study we present the results of a ten year survey of the aquatic macroinvertebrate fauna along four karst rivers: Jadro, Žrnovnica, Grab and Ruda, all of them situated in the Middle Dalmatia region of Croatia, in an attempt to construct the ...
