River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Abstract High densities of burrowing talitrid amphipods inhabit beaches around the world. This includes California, where densities of more than 1,000 individuals m−2 are regularly recorded. Here, we provide evidence of Megalorchestia spp. excavating up to 10.38 kg dry sand m−2 d−1 on a beach in southern California, one of the highest mounding rates ...

Temporal community change in stream ecosystems varies by assemblage across US climates
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem properties are temporally dynamic. Temporal variability has been shown to decrease with increasing levels of biological organization (i.e. from population to community and ecosystem levels).
