Pleistocene environments, climate, and human activity in Britain during Marine Isotope Stage 7: insights from Oak Tree Fields, Cerney Wick, Gloucestershire

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 840-865, August 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Investigations at Oak Tree Fields, Cerney Wick, Gloucestershire, in western England have revealed a sequence of fluvial deposits dating from Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 7 to 5. At the base of the sequence, a series of gravel and sand facies were deposited, initially as part of a meandering river.

Life history and population ecology of Radix swinhoei (Lymnaeidae) in nearshore regions of a hypereutrophic plateau lake

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
The life history traits (life span and growth), annual secondary production, and population size structure of Asia widespread pulmonate Radix swinhoei were carefully and systematically examined across 1 year in nearshore regions of a hypereutrophic plateau lake, Lake Dianchi. The maximum potential life span of R.

Alien species and the Water Framework Directive: Recommendations for assessing ecological status in fresh waters in Norway

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 7, Page 1195-1208, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Invasive alien species are recognized as a significant anthropogenic threat to freshwater ecosystems, because they may bring about the local extinction of native species and the collapse of habitat types of special conservation concern. The Water Framework Directive (WFD) is an important legislative tool for the protection of water bodies in ...

Land‐use type temporarily affects active pond community structure but not gene expression patterns

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 6, Page 1716-1734, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Changes in land use and agricultural intensification threaten biodiversity and ecosystem functioning of small water bodies. We studied 67 kettle holes (KH) in an agricultural landscape in northeastern Germany using landscape‐scale metatranscriptomics to understand the responses of active bacterial, archaeal and eukaryotic communities to land ...

Two centuries for an almost complete community turnover from native to non‐native species in a riverine ecosystem

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 606-623, February 2021., 2021
We investigated local temporal changes in fish and macroinvertebrates over a period of 215 years. We identified an almost complete turnover from native to non‐native species. Analyses of changes in α‐diversities for native and non‐native fish and macroinvertebrates were nonlinear.
