Stream water temperature (ts) is a critical water quality parameter for aquatic ecosystems.
However, ts records are sparse or nonexistent in many river systems. In this work, we …

Thermal refuges form potentially critical habitat for species at the limits of their thermal
tolerance, especially given large‐scale habitat degradation and rising temperatures across …

Groundwater and accompanying heat fluxes are particularly relevant for aquatic habitats as
they influence living conditions both within the river and streambed. This study focuses on …

River flow regime is believed to have a fundamental effect on riverine biota. It influences key
aquatic processes, including levels of dissolved oxygen, sediment transport and deposition …

Abstract The Beaver Creek confluence with the main‐stem Klamath River was studied to
assess salmonid use in a thermal mixing zone under various summer hydrological and …

Cold water provided by small tributary streams can contribute to thermal heterogeneity in
downstream receiving waters, thereby providing important thermal refuge habitat for cold …

A central tenet of landscape ecology is that mobile species depend on complementary
habitats, which are insufficient in isolation, but combine to support animals through the full …

Temperature affects processes at all levels of biological organization, but it is unclear
whether processes at different levels have similar thermal optima (T opt). Here, we compare …

We used a lethal thermal method to estimate the upper thermal tolerances of 11 native and 7
nonnative fish species found throughout southern Arizona. Fish were acclimated to 25° C …

Empirical studies have highlighted the important influence of lakes on stream temperature at
landscape scales, even when lakes comprise just a small fraction of the catchment area …
