Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Leaf‐litter decomposition is a key indicator of the functional integrity of stream ecosystems and cotton strips have been employed as a standard substrate for quantification of litter‐decomposition rates in streams across the globe. Cotton strips also offer a standardized method for assessing structural integrity of stream microbial ...

Geophysical Research LettersAccurate data on curvature‐induced water‐surface superelevation are important for understanding complex patterns of fluid motion in meandering rivers. Nevertheless, superelevation has been studied primarily in the laboratory because field measurements ...

Aquatic Diversity and Fishing Practices at Tell Tayinat (Türkiye) in the Iron Age
International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While agrarian societies of the Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean relied predominantly on crops and herding of domestic stock for subsistence, local wild aquatic fauna offered a welcomed enrichment, and when opportunities occurred, it could have been a staple in the human diet.

Bank erosion processes along the lower Mekong River
, 2012 This project conducts an analysis of bank erosion processes on a large, monsoonaffected river, the Lower Mekong River in Laos. The methodological approach taken was to build integrated models of bank erosion processes at three study sites on the Lower ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Forests and woodlands are important for biodiversity, climate change mitigation and the provision of services including recreation, timber and non‐timber forest products. Land use policies currently aim to increase forest cover while also maximising the benefits of forests for people and improving community engagement with the process of ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Depictions of rewilded landscapes reveal the underlying principles shaping the future of rewilding. This paper analyses a virtual reality (VR) model of a rewilding project in the Scottish Highlands that is advertised as a vision of a rewilded nature in 50 to 100 years' time.

Analysis and modelling of river meandering
, 2008 This thesis examines the morphological changes of non-tidal meandering rivers at the spatial scale of several meanders. With this purpose, a physics-based mathematical model, MIANDRAS, has been developed for the simulation of the medium-term to long-term

Polymer International, EarlyView.An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.A challenge for wild plant conservation is the rising incidence of plant pathogens that are difficult to interdict, contain and manage. Invasive, fast‐moving, broad‐spectrum pathogens impose societal costs through losses of intrinsically valuable wild biodiversity, ecosystem function, current and potential genetic and biological assets, culturally ...
