Mediterranean-climate streams and rivers: geographically separated but ecologically comparable freshwater systems
N Bonada, VH Resh - Hydrobiologia, 2013 - Springer
Streams and rivers in mediterranean-climate regions (med-rivers in med-regions) are
ecologically unique, with flow regimes reflecting precipitation patterns. Although timing of …

[HTML][HTML] Emissions from dry inland waters are a blind spot in the global carbon cycle
A large part of the world's inland waters, including streams, rivers, ponds, lakes and
reservoirs is subject to occasional, recurrent or even permanent drying. Moreover, the …

[HTML][HTML] A conceptual framework for understanding the biogeochemistry of dry riverbeds through the lens of soil science
Intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES) encompass fluvial ecosystems that
eventually stop flowing and run dry at some point in space and time. During the dry phase …

Climate and edaphic factors drive soil enzyme activity dynamics and tolerance to Cd toxicity after rewetting of dry soil
The intense drying-rewetting cycle due to climate change can affect soil microbial
community composition and function, resulting in long-term consequences for belowground …

Functional responses of stream biofilms to flow cessation, desiccation and rewetting
Mediterranean climate regions are characterised by long summer droughts that usually
involve flow intermittency in low‐to mid‐order streams. Flow intermittency implies flow …

[PDF][PDF] Impact of climate change on waterborne diseases
E Funari, M Manganelli, L Sinisi - Annali dell'Istituto superiore …, 2012 - SciELO Public Health
Change in climate and water cycle will challenge water availability but it will also increase
the exposure to unsafe water. Floods, droughts, heavy storms, changes in rain pattern …

When water vanishes: magnitude and regulation of carbon dioxide emissions from dry temporary streams
Most fluvial networks worldwide include watercourses that recurrently cease to flow and run
dry. The spatial and temporal extent of the dry phase of these temporary watercourses is …

Hydrological extremes modulate nutrient dynamics in mediterranean climate streams across different spatial scales
Hydrology is a key factor in the terrestrial landscape that connects upland and riparian
ecosystems to streams. Hydrological connectivity through the catchment and along the …
