Controls on Flow Separation at the River Bifurcation Head

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Flow separation zones are common hydrodynamic features in river bifurcations, strongly influencing flow partitioning and channel morphology. While the inner‐bank separation zones have been widely recognized, we identify a previously underreported separation zone at the bifurcation head.

The Influence of Habitat Heterogeneity and Human Disturbance on Trophic Interactions of Sebastiscus marmoratus and Scorpaenopsis cirrosa in Wanshan Archipelago

Ecology and Evolution
Habitat heterogeneity and human disturbances drive variations in interspecific interactions among fish species. Trophic niche analysis is a crucial approach for understanding these interactions.

Improving Living Resource Responses in Ecosystem Restoration: An Illustration Using the Chesapeake Bay

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Two key components of large‐scale ecosystem restoration planning are: (1) prioritizing individual projects based on how living resources respond, and (2) selecting and analyzing indicators of living resources to assess restoration progress and performance.

Shifting Seas, Changing Diets: Evidence of Temporal Dietary Shifts in Marine Megafauna in Southern Brazil (2017–2023)

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the dietary dynamics of marine megafauna is essential for interpreting ecological interactions and assessing environmental changes in marine ecosystems. We analysed temporal trends in the diets of eight megafaunal species, comprising marine mammals, seabirds, and sea turtles.

Investigating the Impacts of Landuse-landcover (LULC) Change in the Pearl River Delta Region on Water Quality in the Pearl River Estuary and Hong Kong’s Coast

Remote Sensing, 2009
Water quality information in the coastal region of Hong Kong and the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) is of great concern to the local community. Due to great landuse-landcover (LULC) changes with rapid industrialization and urbanization in the Pearl River ...

Climate and Land‐Use Change May Reshape the Biogeography of Freshwater Crabs Across China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We employed ensemble species distribution models to investigate how climate and land‐use change will impact habitat suitability for two freshwater crab families (Potamidae and Sesarmidae) across China. Temperature emerged as the dominant driver, with cropland and urban land having strong, family‐specific effects on suitability. Future scenarios predict

Multi-Element Non-Coherent Time-Varying Encounter Analysis of Complex Hazards Contributing to Pearl River Estuary Flooding

Redai dili
In conjunction with global warming, the frequency and intensity of typhoons in the Pearl River Estuary region are increasing annually, and coastal cities are becoming more vulnerable to compound disasters triggered by upstream flooding, typhoons, and ...

The Effect of ‘Hydraulic‐Visual’ Interaction on the Intensity of Fish Schooling in the Upstream Movement of Juvenile Silver Carp

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study used juvenile silver carp as model organisms to investigate the combined effects of flow velocity, turbulence kinetic energy and visual cues from obstacles on fish schooling intensity. The experiments demonstrated that schooling intensity is a dynamic behavioural adjustment shaped by the integration of hydraulic constraints, energetic ...

Fluvial connectivity drives carbon cycle dynamics in a tropical mega‐delta

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Coastal estuaries are hotspots of biogeochemical cycling, biodiversity, and sediment processing, yet the drivers of carbon cycle processes remain poorly constrained. Here, we elucidate the influence of hydrological connectivity on carbon biogeochemistry in the Indian Sundarban over successive monsoon seasons by comparing hydrologically ...
