Progress in socio‐hydrology: a meta‐analysis of challenges and opportunities [PDF]
WIREs Water, 2016 Socio‐hydrology was introduced 4 years ago into the scientific lexicon, and elicited several reactions about the meaning and originality of the concept. However, there has also been much activity triggered by the original paper, including further commentaries that clarified the definitions, and several papers that acted on the definitions, and through ...

Tracking a killer shrimp: Dikerogammarus villosus invasion dynamics across Europe
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 157-172, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim Invasive alien species are a growing problem worldwide due to their ecological, economic and human health impacts. The “killer shrimp” Dikerogammarus villosus is a notorious invasive alien amphipod from the Ponto‐Caspian region that has invaded many fresh and brackish waters across Europe.

Planktonic functional diversity changes in synchrony with lake ecosystem state
Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 686-701, February 2023., 2023 Using species‐level plankton trait and abundance data from five highly monitored lakes, we determined the timing of functional diversity change relative to ecosystem state/functioning. Simple cross‐correlation and novel convergent cross mapping techniques revealed that planktonic functional diversity was weakly associated with state (with individual ...

Shortage and surplus of water in the socio-hydrological context [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2014 Abstract. Balancing the temporal variability of hydrological conditions in the long- and short-term is often essential for steady socio-economic conditions. However, this equilibrium is very fragile in many cases. Hydrological changes or socio-economic changes may destroy it in a short time.

An alternative approach for socio-hydrology: case study research [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017 Abstract. This paper argues for an alternative approach for socio‒hydrology: detailed case study research. Currently, the dominant approach in socio‒hydrology is developing coupled human‒water models. With very few exceptions, these models treat society as one actor or as a group of individual actors and do not include management structures and ...

Freshwater mussel conservation: A global horizon scan of emerging threats and opportunities
Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 575-589, February 2023., 2023 We identified 14 emerging and poorly understood threats and opportunities for addressing the global conservation of freshwater mussels over the next decade. Prioritization of our topics can help to drive a proactive approach to the conservation of this declining group which provides a multitude of important ecosystem services. Abstract We identified 14

Socio-hydrological spaces in the Jamuna River floodplain in Bangladesh [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018 Abstract. In this paper, we propose a concept that captures the different socio-hydrological patterns that result from different societal choices on how to deal with rivers, floods and erosion: socio-hydrological spaces. Socio-hydrology aims to understand the dynamics and co-evolution of coupled human-water systems.

Transdisciplinary research for sustainability: scoping for project potential
International Social Science Journal, Volume 72, Issue 246, Page 1087-1104, December 2022., 2022 Abstract In response to the interconnected character of societal challenges, there is a growing interest in transdisciplinary sustainability research. However, for transdisciplinary research to be able to support the generation of new knowledge in a participatory and reflexive manner, a number of challenges have been identified in each stage of the ...

Estimating parameter values of a socio-hydrological flood model [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2018 Abstract. Socio-hydrological modelling studies that have been published so far show that dynamic coupled human-flood models are a promising tool to represent the phenomena and the feedbacks in human-flood systems. So far these models are mostly generic and have not been developed and calibrated to represent specific case studies.
