Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Generation of natural runoff monthly series at ungauged sites using a regional regressive model [PDF]
Many hydrologic applications require reliable estimates of runoff in river basins to face the widespread lack of data, both in time and in space. A regional method for the reconstruction of monthly runoff series is here developed and applied to Sicily ...

Tropical Peatland Restoration Reduces Fire Occurrence
Abstract Extensive tropical peatlands in Indonesia have been drained and deforested, leaving them highly susceptible to fire. In response to widespread fires in 2015 El Niño, large‐scale restoration schemes were implemented. While fire occurrence was dramatically reduced during 2019 and 2023 El Niño, it is not known to what extent restoration ...

Changing Flood‐Generating Mechanisms Impact Flood Characteristics in Snow‐Dominated Catchments
Abstract Global warming is shifting the characteristics of snowmelt floods, while simultaneously altering flood‐generating mechanisms in cold regions. Here, we disentangle the contributions of inter‐type mechanism transitions from intra‐type characteristic shifts to overall changes in flood behavior across Northern Hemisphere snow‐dominated catchments.

Adaptation to flood risk: Results of international paired flood event studies [PDF]
As flood impacts are increasing in large parts of the world, understanding the primary drivers of changes in risk is essential for effective adaptation. To gain more knowledge on the basis of empirical case studies, we analyze eight paired floods, that

Impacts of Deforestation‐Driven Rainfall Reductions on Amazonia Forest Stability
Abstract The stability of Amazonian vegetation is strongly influenced by land–atmosphere feedbacks. It has been hypothesized that deforestation‐induced precipitation decline may lead to widespread forest decline across the entire basin. Using a moisture‐tracking model, we quantify how deforestation across South America alters downwind rainfall and ...
