Marsh Interspersion and Muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) Habitat Use

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We used camera traps to measure intensity of habitat use by muskrats along a gradient of marsh interspersion to determine whether reduced interspersion, which may be linked to the invasion of Typha x glauca, may be contributing to widespread muskrat population declines.

Herbivory on freshwater macrophytes

Aquatic Botany, 1991
Abstract Conventional wisdom holds that live macrophytes are rarely consumed and are functionally unimportant in aquatic food webs. With a review of the literature, I first demonstrate that macrophyte biomass, productivity, and species composition is often influenced by a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate grazers.

Modeling Trophic Structure and Ecosystem Functioning of the Small Fish‐Dominated Largest Lake of Bangladesh

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Kaptai Lake is a developing ecosystem with a linear food web and thereby vulnerable to external influences. The apex predator, Catfish (TL‐3.364), occupied the top trophic niches, while the overabundant (B: 3.264 t/km2) Clupeid (TL‐2.56) dominated the lower trophic level in the food web. The higher values of ecotrophic efficiency for most of the groups

Environmental DNA Reveals Diverse and Depth‐Stratified Biodiversity in East Indian Ocean Submarine Canyons

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals diverse animal communities across Cape Range and Cloates submarine canyons off Western Australia. Two assays detected 234 species spanning 125 families across 11 phyla, highlighting canyon‐specific assemblages and demonstrating the value of eDNA for establishing biodiversity baselines in remote and poorly ...

Remobilisation of fine sediment from chalk stream gravel beds under flushing flows: A flume experiment

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Through progressive flume experiments, this study demonstrated that increased bed shear stresses corresponded with increased cohesive fine sediment (<62‐μm) remobilisation depths from a representative chalk stream gravel bed. This represents some of the first scientifically robust data, which can direct revised and targeted fine sediment management in ...

Limno‐STOICH: A comprehensive database linking the elemental stoichiometry of organisms with inland aquatic habitats

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract All organisms contain carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus in widely ranging amounts and proportions. Integrating existing datasets enables quantification of this variation at global scales. Such efforts could leverage ecological stoichiometry theory, the study of elemental supply and imbalances in ecological interactions, to connect ecological ...

An Urban Taonga: The Distribution and Abundance of Tuna in Urban Streams Across Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa‐New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Freshwater eels of the Anguilla genus are experiencing global decline, largely driven by human activity. In Aotearoa‐New Zealand, tuna (both shortfin and longfin eels) are similarly affected, with habitat fragmentation and modification key drivers of their decline.

Associating Local‐Scale Physical Habitat Assemblages With Reach‐Scale Stream Hydrogeomorphological Types in Mountain Headwater Catchments

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 527-546, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Building an understanding of river ecosystems often involves integrating information from different locations, spatial scales and points in time. Geomorphologists and ecologists have long considered ways to explore river ecosystems at different, hierarchical, spatial scales so that features observed locally can be linked to the character of ...

A Temporally Consistent Spatial Gradient in Methane Ebullition From a Eutrophic Lake

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Gas bubble emission (ebullition) from lake sediment is a prominent source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the atmosphere, but the stochastic nature of bubble release and thus high variability in space and time makes the estimation of lake CH4 ebullition challenging.

High diversity of macrophytes in the »green river« Krka (Slovenia)

River
The presence, abundance, and distribution of aquatic macrophytes and their growth forms in the river Krka in Slovenia were studied. The studied slow‐flowing lowland River Krka is also called a »green river« since it is overgrown with macrophytes from its
