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.

Ecography, EarlyView.Long‐distance seed dispersal by ocean currents plays a critical role in structuring coastal plant communities. As direct observations of this phenomenon are infeasible, numerical modeling is a valuable tool. Here, we use Lagrangian particle tracking to examine the colonization of the newly forming island Norderoogsand (German Bight, Wadden Sea) by five

Challenges in Implementing European Regulation on Water Reuse for Sustainable Agriculture
Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Regulation (EU) 2020/741 on minimum requirements for water reuse is a key policy for sustainable water management under growing water scarcity in Europe. This paper examines expert perspectives on the challenges involved in implementing EU regulation for water reuse in agriculture, aiming to broaden existing research, which is largely ...

Microplastic pollution in the aquatic environment: sources, destination & effects [PDF]
, 2017 Microplastic are plastics that are < 5mm and is a contaminant of emerging concern in the aquatic environment. They are produced to be of a microscopic size or are created through the fragmentation of larger plastic material due to degradation ...

Under-researched and under-reported new findings in microplastic field
After over 20 years of research on microplastic (MP) pollution, there are important areas of study which are still at the inception. In particular, between 2020 and 2023 new findings on MP have emerged, which open new sub-categories of MP research. These
