Inter‐basin water transfers create new pathways between previously disjunct systems and
communities. If fish movement occurs, it can lead to invasion or altered regional connectivity …

Abstract Purpose of Review We conducted a literature review to understand how landscape
patterns affect ecological processes in metacommunities in lentic environments. Our aim …

Background Climate changes influence the ecosystems and induce potential risks regarding
the natural products and services; the human society should predict and adapt in time to …

Connectivity among marine populations plays a fundamental role in the dynamic of
metapopulations and communities. Moreover, genetic connectivity is important for the …

Natural and human-related landscape features influence the ecology and water quality of
lakes. Summarizing these features in a hydrologically meaningful way is critical to …

The relationships between fish composition, connectivity and morphometry of 103 lagoons
in nine freshwater ecoregions (FEOW) between 2· 83° S and 37· 64° S were evaluated in …

Hydrological connectivity interferes directly in dispersal rates of organisms and in similarity
of environmental conditions among floodplain environments. Consequently, connectivity …

Populations of invasive species continue to expand globally, causing extensive ecological
and economic damages and are thus frequently the focus of control efforts. To effectively …

Predation, and the risk of predation, shape the ecology, behavior, and evolution of many
species. Small fishes navigate a perilous landscape of risk in the shallow waters of the …

Urban small water bodies, such as ponds, are essential elements of human socio-economic
landscapes. Ponds also provide important habitats for species that would otherwise not …
