River networks represent the largest biogeochemical nexus between the continents, ocean
and atmosphere. Our current understanding of the role of rivers in the global carbon cycle …

Streams and rivers provide important services to humans, and therefore, their ecological
integrity should be a societal goal. Although ecological integrity encompasses structural and …

We investigate the" macronutrient-access hypothesis", which states that the balance
between stoichiometric macronutrient demand and accessible macronutrients controls …

Global quantitative estimations of ecosystem functions are vital. Among those, ecosystem
respiration and photosynthesis contribute to carbon cycling and energy flow to food webs …

Agricultural land use in the Midwestern US is the major source of nitrogen (N) causing
recurring hypoxia in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Despite efforts to reduce losses, N export …

Emergent aquatic insects constitute an important food source for higher trophic levels,
linking aquatic to terrestrial ecosystems. Little is known about how land use affects the …

Recently developed in situ NO3–sensors provide new opportunities to measure changes in
stream concentration at high temporal frequencies that historically have not been feasible. In …

Two‐stage ditches represent an emerging management strategy in artificially drained
agricultural landscapes that mimics natural floodplains and has the potential to improve …

Stream metabolism plays a significant role in the global carbon cycle. Storm events can
lower stream metabolic activities by removing standing biomass and river bed stock of …

Headwater streams influence the biogeochemical characteristics of large rivers and play
important roles in regional and global carbon budgets. The combined effects of seasonality …
