Alluvial ridge morphology on avulsing rivers
ABSTRACT Alluvial ridges are built by preferential channel‐belt deposition and control river avulsions, yet a systematic analysis of their morphology has been missing. To address this gap, we analyse a globally distributed dataset of 8970 alluvial ridge flanks on 14 different rivers.

Shallow Landslides Align With Atmospheric Rivers in Coastal Steeplands
Abstract Rapid, shallow landslides in coastal mountains are triggered by extreme precipitation, shaping topography and impacting human settlements. Using an inventory of >700 landslides mapped from satellite imagery (2009–2024) and an atmospheric river database (1981–2019), this study documents linkages between climatic drivers and the topographic ...

A Stochastic Approach for Recovery Times of Coastal Dune Vegetation
Abstract The resilience of coastal dunes to environmental stress largely depends on vegetation recovery, which promotes sediment trapping and sand stabilization. However, post‐disturbance recovery dynamics remain difficult to quantify due to the complex interplay between biotic and abiotic processes.

Marine Functional Connectivity Contributes to Ecosystem Functioning Across Multiple Scales
ABSTRACT The passive transport and active movements of marine organisms between habitats and ecosystems, known as marine functional connectivity, play a critical role in the functioning of marine ecosystems. However, marine functional connectivity, particularly at large spatial scales, is often understudied, and consequently tends to be overlooked in ...

ABSTRACT Environmental integrity is vital for the long‐term preservation of freshwater biodiversity, which is currently among the most threatened on Earth due to anthropogenic pressures such as dam construction. The present study investigated the temporal responses of ostracod communities over 8 years (2017–2024) in the Upper Paraná River floodplain ...

ABSTRACT River ecosystems are increasingly vulnerable to intensified human pressures associated with population growth and rising living standards, leading to structural changes and altered ecosystem service (ES) provision. The lower course of the Hrazdan River (Armenia) exemplifies these impacts, as it flows through Yerevan, the capital city, and ...

Our systematic review of 181 published studies investigated seedling traits of native grass, forb, and shrub species across diverse environmental conditions in the continental United States. We found that most studies focused on individuals younger than 90 days old, with only 24% of studies measuring seedling traits beyond this window.

Ensemble species distribution models indicate that Potamon fluviatile may experience a substantial reduction in climatically suitable habitat in Italy under future climate scenarios, particularly under high‐emission pathways. Comparison with the current protected area network suggests that some existing reserves may lose suitability, while a limited ...

Biofilm microbial composition varies significantly; diversity is higher in spring and autumn. The dewatered reach shows the broadest niche and dominant stochastic assembly. Seasonal assembly shift: deterministic in summer, stochastic in winter. Nutrient cycling genes vary more among sites than seasons under SHP influence.
