Priming effect: bridging the gap between terrestrial and aquatic ecology
Ecology, 2010 Understanding how ecosystems store or release carbon is one of ecology's greatest challenges in the 21st century. Organic matter covers a large range of chemical structures and qualities, and it is classically represented by pools of different recalcitrance to degradation.

Intermittent pool beds are permanent cyclic habitats with distinct wet, moist and dry phases. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Recognition that intermittent pools are a single habitat phase of an intermittent pool bed that cycles between aquatic and terrestrial habitat greatly enhances their usefulness for addressing general questions in ecology.

The state, transport, and fate of aboveground terrestrial arthropod eDNA
Environmental DNA, 2021 Environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses have become invaluable for detecting and monitoring aquatic and terrestrial species and assessing site biodiversity within aquatic environments or soil.

Radiocarbon in ecology: Insights and perspectives from aquatic and terrestrial studies [PDF]
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Abstract Carbon is one of the most abundant elements in the biosphere, and a key element for understanding how consumer and resource relationships affect ecosystem functioning. To trace carbon sources, ecologists predominantly rely on stable carbon ratios but variable 13C baselines and diet‐to‐consumer offsets can lead to ambiguous results.

Microeukaryotic gut parasites in wastewater treatment plants: diversity, activity, and removal
Microbiome, 2022 Background During wastewater treatment, the wastewater microbiome facilitates the degradation of organic matter, reduction of nutrients, and removal of gut parasites.

Conservation Biology, 2022 Abstract River conservation efforts traditionally focus on perennial watercourses (i.e., those that do not dry) and their associated aquatic biodiversity. However, most of the global river network is not perennial and thus supports both aquatic and terrestrial biodiversity.

Prothonotary warbler nestling growth and condition inresponse to variation in aquatic and terrestrial preyavailability [PDF]
, 2016 Aquatic prey subsidies entering terrestrial habitats are well documented, but little is known about the degree to which these resources provide fitness benefits to riparian consumers.

Review of Ecological Effects of Roads on Terrestrial and Aquatic Communities [PDF]
Conservation Biology, 2000 Abstract: Roads are a widespread and increasing feature of most landscapes. We reviewed the scientific literature on the ecological effects of roads and found support for the general conclusion that they are associated with negative effects on biotic integrity in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Roads of

Royal Society Open Science, 2022 The North American rodent fossil record includes hundreds of species representing both an incredible taxonomic diversity and great ecological disparity. Although it is during the Oligocene that taxonomic diversity first peaks, it is not until the Miocene,
