From perennial to intermittent headwater stream: macroinvertebrate community response to climate-induced summer water scarcity
Between 2014 and 2019, Central Europe was subject to unusually high temperatures and periods of drought due to climate change, with a subsequent...
-
Catchment scale deforestation increases the uniqueness of subtropical stream communities
Local communities and individual species jointly contribute to the overall beta diversity in metacommunities. However, it is mostly unknown whether...
-
Rapid macroinvertebrate colonisation in restored channelised streams contiguous with natural stream reaches
Stream restoration is meant to mitigate increasing anthropogenic pressure and re-establish ecosystem functioning and biodiversity. Extensive research...
-
A whole-ecosystem experiment reveals flow-induced shifts in a stream community
The growing threat of abrupt and irreversible changes to the functioning of freshwater ecosystems compels robust measures of tip** point...

Past Sea Incursions into Patagonia and the Resulting Record of Marine Invertebrates
Since the initial opening of the Atlantic Ocean in the Early Cretaceous, the eastern margin of southern South America has been affected by several...

Comparative analysis of biotic indices for assessment of water quality of Balaban Stream in West Anatolia, Turkey
Drinking water basins are freshwater resources that need to be protected and sustained of water quality. However, these areas are lately facing...
-
Benthic invertebrates as ecological indicators in the rivers of the Northern Aegean Basin (Türkiye)
This study aimed to determine the water quality classes of seven rivers in the North Aegean Basin (Türkiye) according to their benthic...

Determinants and Dynamics of Production Rates of Stream-Dwelling Salmonids: The Importance of Intrinsic Factors
Based on published and unpublished long-term data sets covering a wide range in size, growth, density, and production rates reported for resident,...
-
Longitudinal structuring of stream-fish assemblages: is niche partitioning observed in two-species systems applicable to three-species systems?
Longitudinal distribution and niche partitioning phenomena have been extensively reported for streams containing two salmonid species but remain...

Potential impacts of changing vegetation on benthic invertebrate assemblages in Odaigahara, Japan
Across Japan, populations of Sika deer ( Cervus nippon ) have grown rapidly over recent decades, and Odaigahara has particularly high densities of Sika...

Recovery of a headwater stream population of brown trout after a fish kill in southeastern Minnesota, USA
After a complete fish kill on the 2-km-long, spring-fed headwater section of Garvin Brook, the brown trout ( Salmo trutta ) population was studied over...

Taxonomy and diet determine the polar and neutral lipid fatty acid composition in deep-sea macrobenthic invertebrates
Lipids are key compounds in the transfer of energy and nutrients in marine food webs. Specifically, neutral lipids are the main reservoir of dietary...

Comparative analysis of benthic macroinvertebrate-based biotic and diversity indices used to evaluate the water quality of Kozluoluk Stream (West Anatolia of Turkey)
Freshwater ecosystems are vitally important which supports biological diversity. With this aim, a total of eight biotic and three species diversity...

Temporal Variability of Macroinvertebrate Assemblages in a Mediterranean Coastal Stream: Implications for Bioassessment
Macroinvertebrates from a small forest stream in central-south Chile were sampled monthly from September 2017 to August 2018 to assess temporal...

Hide or seek: presence of stream shelter influences the foraging behaviour of juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, Linnaeus 1758)
Shelter is an environmental feature that provides protection from danger, and its use is an important anti-predator behaviour for juvenile salmonids...

Habitat Selection and Segregation Among Stream Salmonids: The Case of Juvenile Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus)
We use the case study of coho salmon and steelhead trout to discuss the coexistence of two similar stream salmonid species. The question of...

Early spring food resources and the trophic structure of macroinvertebrates in a small headwater stream as revealed by bulk and fatty acid stable isotope analysis
Energy and organic matter flow in forested headwater stream trophic webs is generally more dependent on allochthonous than autochthonous organic...

Fish functional diversity is less impacted by mining than fish taxonomic richness in an Amazonian stream system
Mining is an important human activity, but it strongly alters terrestrial and aquatic landscapes. Understanding the response of community-level...

Conservation genetics of the endangered California Freshwater Shrimp (Syncaris pacifica): watershed and stream networks define gene pool boundaries
Understanding genetic structure and diversity among remnant populations of rare species can inform conservation and recovery actions. We used a...

Dynamics of organic material and invertebrates in a tropical headwater stream
Headwater streams drain large proportions of landscapes and represent a large proportion of stream habitat. Understanding their ecology requires more...
