Excess fine sediment, comprising particles< 2 mm in diameter, is a major cause of
ecological degradation in rivers. The erosion of fine sediment from terrestrial or aquatic …

Oxygen is one of the most crucial elements on earth and equally affects life and inorganic
redox processes. After its transition to water with moderate solubility and slow diffusion rates …

Abstract Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA) involves using services on which human well-
being depends to help people adapt to the impacts of climate change. Aiming at …

Flood events can change the riverbed topography as well as the riverbed texture and
structure, which in turn can influence the riverbed hydraulic conductivity (Krb) and river …

Fine sediment processes in gravel beds may have significant impacts to overall river
ecosystem function. In addition to gravitational deposition, horizontal intragravel transport …

Humans have exploited the earth's metal resources for thousands of years leaving behind a
legacy of toxic metal contamination and poor water quality. The southwest of England …

Fluvial systems evade massive amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere where
stream hydrology and riverbed biogeochemistry imposes important in situ controls. Current …

The taxonomic composition of egg-associated microbial communities can play a crucial role
in the development of fish embryos. In response, hosts increasingly influence the …

Salmonids reared in aquaculture incubation systems are susceptible to periods of cyclical or
fluctuating hypoxia caused by embryo crowding, water flow rates and management …

Microbial communities that reduce nitrous oxide (N2O) are divided into two clades, nosZ I
and nosZ II. These clades significantly differ in their ecological niches and their implications …
