Characteristics, main impacts, and stewardship of natural and artificial freshwater environments: consequences for biodiversity conservation
In this overview (introductory article to a special issue including 14 papers), we consider all
main types of natural and artificial inland freshwater habitas (fwh). For each type, we identify …

Environment regimes play an important role in structuring trait‐and taxonomy‐based temporal beta diversity of riverine diatoms
A sound understanding of the community changes over time and its driving forces is at the
centre of biodiversity conservation and ecology research. In this study, we examined:(i) the …
