Ecography, EarlyView.Global change is reshaping the distribution of biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems. Predicting the long‐term consequences of such changes remains a challenge due to a need for a clear understanding of the mechanisms underpinning ecosystem‐level responses, as well as the role of geographical and environmental contingencies.

Frontiers in Plant ScienceClimate change and intensified human activities have disrupted the natural hydrological regime and rhythm of river-connected lakes, extending the dry season, increasing water loss, and exposing previously submerged lake floors.

Ecography, EarlyView.Accurately measuring biodiversity change remains a central challenge in ecology. Beyond the general idea of quantifying temporal species frequency changes, several sampling‐related biases in data collection remain key methodological challenges to consider. Long‐term standardized ecological data are rare, and most available datasets exhibit considerable

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

JSFA reports, EarlyView.Abstract Background The proliferation of invasive aquatic macrophytes poses a significant ecological challenge globally, while many tropical regions face chronic shortages of affordable livestock feed. This study addresses this dual problem by assessing two invasive species, water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes ...

Factors affecting the distribution patterns of aquatic macrophytes
Limnological Review, 2014 Aquatic macrophytes constitute important components of many freshwater ecosystems. The manifold role of aquatic macrophytes in freshwater habitats is closely linked to their distribution, which in turn depends on a myriad of factors.

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from freshwater ecosystems contribute significantly to global carbon budgets, yet they remain poorly constrained due to limited high‐frequency measurements. We tested a low‐cost, high‐frequency GHG measurement system in a long‐term mesocosm experiment in Lemming, Denmark, over a 7‐month period, focusing on CO2 ...

Ecological biomechanics of marine macrophytes
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2022 AbstractMacroalgae and seagrasses in coastal habitats are exposed to turbulent water currents and waves that deform them and can rip them off the substratum, but that also transport essential water-borne substances to them and disperse their propagules and wastes.

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Tailwaters are ubiquitous and highly managed ecosystems whose food webs often rely disproportionately on autochthonous energy. In situ continuous dissolved oxygen data are increasingly being used to estimate gross primary productivity and ecosystem respiration in rivers, but this approach is complicated in tailwaters, where upriver ...

Analyse multi-compartiments et rôles fonctionnels des macrophytes dans les hydrosystèmes
Sciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2008 Les macrophytes sont mis en relation avec les autres compartiments des hydrosystèmes, tant abiotiques (masse d'eau, milieu physique) que biotiques (algues épiphytes, invertébrés, poissons).
