Eutrophication has altered food webs across aquatic systems, but effects of nutrient
stoichiometry (varying nutrient ratios) on ecosystem structure and function have received …

Estuaries are biogeochemical hot spots because they receive large inputs of nutrients and
organic carbon from land and oceans to support high rates of metabolism and primary …

The salinity gradient of estuaries plays a unique and fundamental role in structuring spatial
patterns of physical properties, biota, and biogeochemical processes. We use variability …

This paper reviews and highlights recent research findings on food web processes since an
earlier review by Kimmerer et al.(2008). We conduct this review within a conceptual …

Floodplains provides an overview of floodplains and their management in temperate
regions. It synthesizes decades of research on floodplain ecosystems, explaining …

Primary production in the Northern San Francisco Estuary (SFE) has been declining despite
heavy loading of anthropogenic nutrients. The inorganic nitrogen (N) loading comes …

We used stable C and N isotope ratios of tissues from 29 fish species from a large
subtropical lagoon in southern Brazil to examine spatial variability in isotopic composition …

At least 15% of the 2 Pg y− 1 of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) that accumulates in the
surface layer of the open ocean has been exported from the ocean margins. The C: N: P …

Recent studies indicate that highly aged material is a major component of organic matter
transported by most rivers. However, few studies have used natural 14C to trace the …

River structure and functioning are governed naturally by geography and climate but are
vulnerable to natural and human-related disturbances, ranging from channel engineering to …
