A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Effects of climate on size structure and functioning of aquatic food webs [PDF]

, 2010
In aquatic food webs, the role of body size is notoriously strong. It is also well known that temperature has an effect on body size. For instance, Bergmann’s rule states that body size increases from warm to cold climates.

Effects of water temperature on summer periphyton biomass in shallow lakes: a pan-European mesocosm experiment [PDF]

, 2015
Periphyton communities play an important role in shallow lakes and are controlled by direct forces such as temperature, light, nutrients, and invertebrate grazing, but also indirectly by planktivorous fish predation.

Early evolutionary history of the seed

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Piezo-catalytic in-site H2O2 generation and activation across wide pH range to drive hydroxyl radical-mediated pollutant degradation

Nature Communications
Hydroxyl radicals (·OH) is one of the most important reactive oxygen species (ROSs) for organic pollution controlling in advanced oxidation processes, while its production suffers from numerous H2O2 addition and narrow pH range in generally used Fenton ...

Effects of nitric oxide on zinc tolerance of the submerged macrophyte Hydrilla verticillata

Aquatic Biology, 2014
Heavy metal pollution has become an increasingly recognized threat to the aquatic environment. In response to heavy metal stresses, various terrestrial plants produce the hormone nitric oxide (NO), but minimal information is available about the role of ...
