Removing invasive stream macrofauna shifts nontarget invertebrate mesofauna through facilitation

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Positive interactions among non‐native species can drive invasional meltdowns to the detriment of native biota. Here, we assessed whether targeted control of aquatic invasive species (AIS) can benefit native species by eliminating synergies among invaders.

Discharge and nutrients interact to determine trophic structure in a wetland: Evidence from a landscape‐scale manipulation

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3355-3369, November 2025.
Abstract Identifying drivers of consumer biomass patterns and community structure is complex for managed freshwater ecosystems that are sensitive to nutrients and drought. In the Florida Everglades, flow restoration is expected to reintroduce discharge across an expansive wetland, yet most research on consumers has focused on water depth and dry ...

Where Do You Fly From? Assessing Aerial Dispersal in Temporary Rivers Using Stable Isotopes

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Dispersal is a crucial ecological process that facilitates gene flow and species exchange within ecosystems. In temporary rivers (TRs), dispersal is a key driver of community assembly because it determines the ability of the organisms to adapt to seasonal drying and maintain stable populations.

Phylogeography and genetics of the globally invasive snail Physa acuta Draparnaud 1805, and its potential to serve as an intermediate host to larval digenetic trematodes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background Physa acuta is a globally invasive freshwater snail native to North America. Prior studies have led to conflicting views of how P. acuta populations are connected and genetic diversity is partitioned globally.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.
