The traditional view of river basins as linear corridors has led to numerous studies examining the effects of stream size on aquatic communities. However, similar‐sized streams may harbor distinct faunal assemblages depending on their spatial context within the basin. Headwater tributaries (HTs) that flow into small streams, in the periphery of basins,

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their controversial nature, biodiversity offsets are often used as a regulatory tool to counterbalance the impacts of land clearing on biodiversity. Offsets usually aim to achieve no net loss (NNL) of biodiversity through protection and/or restoration of habitat.
