Water quality in the upper Han River basin, China: the impacts of land use/land cover in riparian buffer zone

, 2009
Vegetated riparian zones adjacent to rivers and streams, can greatly mitigate nutrients, sediment from surface through deposition, absorption and denitrification, yet, human activities primarily land use practices have dramatically reduced the capacity ...

Fish Assemblages in an Urbanized Neotropical Basin: Influence of Environmental Factors Across Dry and Rainy Periods

International Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the effects of season and environmental disturbances on fish communities in neotropical rivers of the Sorocaba basin, a Sub‐Basin of the Paraná River in Southeast Brazil, based on sampling 1196 individuals from 49 species, including two non‐native and one threatened with extinction.

The potential contribution of riparian vegetation in non-point source pollution control during rainfall events in a tropical urban watershed [PDF]

RBRH
The presence of riparian vegetation can reduce the transport of sediments into receiving water bodies from surface runoff during rainfall events. However, this process is still overlooked in tropical watersheds, limiting the capacity of managers and ...

Riparian Amphibian and Reptile Assemblages in Streams Along a Forest Regeneration Gradient in the Ecuadorian Chocó

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT While primary forests are declining, regenerating habitats are becoming increasingly common. In fragmented environments, streams may function as corridors between forest remnants for riparian and aquatic species. However, the responses of stream‐associated species to forest regeneration remain understudied.

Potential Range Shifts of Exotic Plants: Insights From a Mining‐Affected River Basin in Southeast Brazil

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The concurrent effects of climate change and anthropogenic disturbances, such as mining disasters, can significantly influence the distribution of exotic plant species, either by reducing climatic suitability for some taxa or by creating disturbed conditions that favor their establishment and spread.

Hydropeaking Catalyzes Redox Reactions in Impacted Aquifers: A First Field Evidence

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Hydropeaking indicates the sudden and frequent fluctuation of river stage caused by the operation of hydropower plants. This river alteration affects numerous physical, chemical, biological, and ecohydrological processes in surface water bodies.

Assessing the restoration of a seasonally flooded riparian forest through soil carbon and nitrogen cycling indicators and soil microbial communities

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry
The restoration of a six-year-old, seasonally flooded riparian forest planted with woody species native to the Brazilian Cerrado biome within a buffer zone system was evaluated based on soil carbon and nitrogen cycling parameters and soil microbial ...

Climatic rainfall regime shapes energy flow, trophic structure, and secondary production in streams

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Changes in precipitation patterns linked to climate change have profound implications for the structuring and functioning of riverine ecosystems. This study investigates how rainfall influences secondary production by examining nine rivers across a sharp natural rainfall gradient over 3 years.
