Assessing the tree diversity along the Dudhganga River in Kolhapur District of Maharashtra, India

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa
Riparian vegetation is the buffer zone between the aquatic ecosystem of a river and the terrestrial ecosystem. Trees are a typical feature of many ecosystems. Understanding the diversity and geographic distribution of trees holds significant theoretical

Late Holocene environmental history of Dojran, Macedonia: Investigating the interplay of imperial dynamics and climatic change

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 996-1019, October 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a high‐resolution, multi‐proxy reconstruction of environmental and land‐use change from Lake Dojran over historical times (last 2500 years), combining pollen, biomarkers, radiocarbon dating, Ottoman taxation records and other historical data.

The use of the stable oxygen isotope (18O) to trace the distribution and uptake of water in riparian woodlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Streamside vegetation forming narrow "corridors" in temperate regions, is typically dominated by deciduous tree species reflecting strong influences by human activities.

Asymmetric Responses of Ecosystem Health to Urbanization in a Typical Karst City: Spatiotemporal Patterns and Driving Mechanisms in Guilin, China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11744-11760, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion can substantially reshape ecosystem structure and functioning, especially in ecologically fragile Karst landscapes. Clarifying how ecosystem health (EH) responds to urbanization and identifying the factors that drive spatial variation in EH are important for regional sustainability.

Opportunities for the integration of institutional arrangements for riparian buffer zone management in Ontario, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
A need exists in Ontario for improved management of land and water resources. In addition the need for increased integration within and among the agencies responsible for these resources is imperative.

Native Perennial Vegetation Buffer Strips Improve Structural Indicators of Riparian Protection in Mediterranean Agroecosystems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 16, Page 11912-11925, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones in Mediterranean agroecosystems are highly vulnerable to degradation because cultivation often reaches stream edges and annual vegetation senesces during the late‐summer dry period, leaving soils exposed when the first erosive autumn rains occur.

Physical controls dominate stream metabolism and carbon cycling over nutrients and stoichiometry

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Streams process and transport vast carbon quantities along the aquatic continuum. The balance between processing and downstream export is governed by metabolism, which in turn is regulated by distinct physicochemical controls that vary through space and time.

A COST-EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSIS OF ACTIONS TO REDUCE STREAM TEMPERATURE AT THE WATERSHED SCALE [PDF]

open access: yes
A cost-effectiveness frontier is developed to compare economic and environmental tradeoffs associated with planting a riparian buffer to reduce stream temperature at the watershed scale.

Modeling nutrient attenuation by riparian buffer zones along headwater streams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
"In this study I propose a statistical model, the Riparian Nutrient Attenuation Model (RNAM), designed to quickly and accurately access the nutrient attenuation capability of riparian buffer zones.
