Connected reservoirs: Modeling aquatic ecosystems along a cascade system in Brazil

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Connected reservoirs along cascade systems have been constructed along large rivers worldwide, establishing a network of aquatic environments that greatly affect matter flux and ecological dynamics. Here, we explore the underlying ecological principles of their unidirectional connectivity, applying a modeling framework that explicitly links ...

Altered greenhouse gas emissions in shallow lakes invaded by common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Species invasions are among the most important environmental problems facing freshwater ecosystems this century, contributing to biodiversity loss and changes in ecosystem function. Freshwater lakes are an important component of the global carbon cycle and a key source of atmospheric greenhouse gases, yet the consequences of species invasions ...

American manatees adjust their diet composition and trophic niche breadth across different coastal regions

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Marine mammals can exhibit high plasticity in foraging strategies, but how such plasticity is driven by environmental conditions is poorly understood. The American manatee (Trichechus manatus), a large, endangered herbivore, inhabits marine, estuarine, and freshwater environments.

The role of edible habitat complexity in food webs

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Habitat complexity (HC) in part determines the diversity, stability, and behavior of food webs and can influence predation according to a wide variety of functional relationships. Many aquatic species provide HC and are also consumed by other species (e.g., macrophytes, corals, mussels).

River Ouse: fisheries drought report 1996 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The basis for undertaking this study was to examine factors and potential impacts affecting fish and fishing in relation to low flow drought conditions and what other impacts may arise as a result of further reduced flows resulting from abstraction.

Rapidly declining seagrass meadows in Brazil: Findings from satellite imagery and local knowledge

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1155-1171, May 2026.
Abstract Due to the limitations of individual monitoring approaches, integrating social perceptions with multiple advanced technologies provides a new opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of ecosystem degradation. We combined historical aerial mapping, satellite imagery, semi‐structured interviews with local stakeholders, and a bilingual ...

Effects of climate on size structure and functioning of aquatic food webs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In aquatic food webs, the role of body size is notoriously strong. It is also well known that temperature has an effect on body size. For instance, Bergmann’s rule states that body size increases from warm to cold climates.

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...
