Abstract Oxygen is critical for nearly all life on Earth, including aquatic species that breathe dissolved oxygen in both freshwater and marine systems. The rapid, global, and anthropogenic loss of dissolved oxygen known as “aquatic deoxygenation” threatens life in these environments, the human communities that depend on them, and Earth system ...

Hydrological control of ecosystem functioning in a coastal lagoon
Abstract Located at the land–ocean interface, coastal lagoons are specifically vulnerable to increasing threats from anthropogenic activities and climate change. Understanding the hydrological and ecological responses of these lagoon systems to global and local changes is essential.

Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

Urban stormwater ponds support pollution‐tolerant diatom and macroinvertebrate assemblages that are shaped more by local water quality, contaminants, and habitat features than by surrounding land use. Integrating biological monitoring can better inform stormwater management and urban biodiversity planning.

ABSTRACT Aim Our research aimed to assess the beta diversity of Chironomidae (Diptera) and faunal connections across springs, streams, and rivers within the Skadar Lake basin, a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot, using DNA barcoding. Location Skadar Lake basin—a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot. Methods We analysed mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase

ABSTRACT The mechanisms facilitating coexistence of cryptic species in sympatry have long puzzled ecologists. Cryptic species have nearly identical morphology and, therefore, would be presumed to have high niche overlap and potential for interspecific competition and competitive exclusion when resources are limited. Lowland rivers in South America have
