Riparian zones are critical for functional integrity of riverscapes and conservation of
riverscape biodiversity. The synergism of intermediate flood-induced disturbances, moist …

Forest and freshwater ecosystems are tightly linked and together provide important
ecosystem services, but climate change is affecting their species composition, structure, and …

Riparian forests are commonly advocated as a key management option to mitigate the
effects of agriculture on headwater stream biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However …

Forested riparian buffers are recommended to mitigate negative effects of forest harvesting
on recipient freshwater ecosystems. Most of the current best practices of riparian buffer …

In the past several decades, a trend in forestry and silviculture has been toward promoting
complexity in forest ecosystems, but how complexity is conceived and described has shifted …

Despite a century of study by ecologists, recovery following disturbances (succession) is not
fully understood. This book provides the first global synthesis that compares plant …

Agricultural pollution persists as a significant environmental problem for stream ecosystems.
Uncultivated buffer zones or reforestation of riparian zones are advocated as a key …

Well‐documented in terrestrial settings, priming effects describe stimulated heterotrophic
microbial activity and decomposition of recalcitrant carbon by additions of labile carbon. In …

Riparian buffer width and stream channel width have different impacts on ecological
networks (eg, plant cover, regeneration, exotics, erosion, habitat, and stressors) and provide …

Forested riparian corridors are a key management solution for halting the global trend of
declining ecological status of freshwater ecosystems. There is an increasing body of …
