Geomorphic Effects and Habitat Impacts of Large Wood at Restoration Sites in New England
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Large wood (used interchangeably with the term “instream wood”), which refers to trees, logs and other wood within a channel, is beneficial to river ecosystems and is being used more frequently as a component of river restoration projects. We identified metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of large wood to promote ecological and geomorphic ...

Species richness and beta-diversity of aquatic macrophytes assemblages in three floodplain tropical lagoons: evaluating the effects of sampling size and depth gradients [PDF]
, 2002 Using aquatic macrophyte data gathered in three lagoons of the Paraná River floodplain we showed a strong effect of sample size on species richness. Incidence-based species richness estimators (Chao 2, jackknife 1, jackknife 2, incidence-based coverage ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines the role of social capital in designing and implementing more effective governance strategies to improve the state of the Tagus River's significantly deteriorated middle reach (Spain). We employed social network analysis (SNA) to evaluate the bonding, bridging and linking social capital and the quality of stakeholder ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rapid urbanisation and intensifying rainfall have increased cities' vulnerability to flooding, posing major challenges to sustainable development. Although machine learning models have improved flood prediction accuracy, most remain limited by their black‐box nature and lack of actionable insights.

On traits matching and the modular organization of food web and occurrence networks
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.What mechanisms shape ecological networks? In Paraná River piscivores, species traits and abundance scaling promote modular structures. Our findings reveal how communities self‐organize and highlight the conditions needed to sustain them. Abstract Modularity and nestedness have been observed recurrently across different ecological networks, including ...

Comparing the success and failure of the Murray–Darling Basin Plan's water recovery programs
Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.Abstract The Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) Plan is held up by some as an exemplar for world‐leading water policy, whilst others have called it a failure. Total proposed recovery was to return 3200 GL of consumptive (e.g. namely irrigation) water use to non‐consumptive (e.g.
