Impact of Anthropogenic Activities and Climate Change on the Wetlands in the North‐West of Madagascar

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Macrophytes are vulnerable to various factors in their natural ecosystems, including climatic, ecological, and anthropogenic changes. This study aims to document how these factors influence floristic composition. Four sites were investigated in the Boeny Region of northwest Madagascar: Ambatoboeny, Marovoay, Ankarafantsika National Park, and ...

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 8, Page 1799-1817, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Hydrologic, Plant and Soil Controls on Microbial Biomass and Enzyme Activities in a Natural and a Restored Freshwater Marsh of Eastern Ontario, Canada

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The hydrology and drainage history of freshwater marshes influence their soil properties and plant communities, which in turn affect microbial biomass and extracellular enzyme activities that regulate the biogeochemistry and functioning of the marsh. However, field reports examining the spatial differences and controls of microbial biomass and

The freezing of peatland

open access: yes, 1972
It is estimated that peatland covers more than one million square kilometres of Canada, extending from the southernmost part of the country to the Arctic in the continuous permafrost zone. This terrain has been subjected to increasing scientific and engineering study as northern development progresses. Many geotechnical engineering activities in Canada
