Quantifying the contributions of carbon sources that support food webs in large rivers is an important and growing field of ecological research with implications for future management …
Floodplains provides an overview of floodplains and their management in temperate regions. It synthesizes decades of research on floodplain ecosystems, explaining …
The maintenance of biodiversity in dynamic landscapes can be explained through the unifying concept of the metacommunity, an ecological system with a changing structure that …
Construction of dams affects river flow regimes and changes downstream ecosystems in many ways. The impacts of dams depend on local climate, dam purpose and operation …
The ecological efficacy of river restoration projects may change over time, resulting in the loss of their ecological function for targeted species. The goal of this study was to evaluate …

The large‐scale degradation of riparian ecotones and of the connectivity between rivers and their floodplains has resulted in a drastic decline of rheophilic fish populations in European …
Alteration of flow and thermal regimes is a key consequence of human use of river and floodplain ecosystems, and these impacts result from a range of interacting ecological …

Large river–floodplain systems are characterised by seasonal flow variability. High flows lead to hydrological connection between the main channel and inundated off‐channel lakes …
Riverine floodplains serve as an important link between terrestrial and aquatic systems, as the rising and falling of water drive spatial food web subsidies that are critical to the …
